Talarico has vastly outraised/outspent Paxton. Time for Paxton/Paxton supporters to hit back.

I just cant believe that people in Texas will vote for someone who wants open borders..Hispanics, legal hispanics in South Texas voted for Trump to get rid of illegals because they couldnt stand seeing the border flooded with illegals coming into their communities but Im supposed to believe now they are fine with it..same goes for a guy who hates Christians, absolutely HATES Christians, yeah that will work in Texas LOL

Thank God, paxton is getting some support.

Thune may be worse than the turtle was on supporting MAGA candidates

I’m seeing that frickin’ Tallawhacker’s mug between every video on YouTube now and I’m nowhere near Texas. If that means they’re just pissing money away on non-target audiences. I hope it continues.

Once all the things Talarico has said about transgenders and Christianity leaks to the media, the polls will show Paxton up by 20.

I had always thought that after Lsbor Day was the time to really campaign. All these ads from Talafreako wear thin

People. If Texas needs money to help Paxton then we’re losers. I gave $100 each to our guys in Michigan and Georgia. Also threw in a hundred each for Tafoya in Minnesota and Whatley in NC-both underdogs. The formula is simple: turnover possibility in the first 2. Wishful thinking in the others-an exception from the past. We own Texas. Paxton has no business asking for money any more than Cruz did last time. Same with Lindsey Graham in ‘20. Red state and incumbency is on the candidates. Paxton already won statewide twice I do believe. They just gotta fight unlike Cornyn/Thune.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Cornyn was involved in the delay as well. Cornyn has withheld funds as Senate Campaign Chair in the past.

Talarico is in my town in TX right now. I drove past the venue and the auditorium parking lot is completely full, as are surrounding streets.
C-span is doing a live stream, but it keeps buffering.

GOP Senate $$$ will not come to Paxton because Paxton beat Cornyn and Thune don't like it.
Trump money will come.

15 million is nice but it doesn’t reach anywhere near the caliber of money that talerico is deploying.

I predict Talarico wins. I hate to say it. But there is a disease in this nation that is taking over.

Cruz trailed in the fake polls right up to the election and won by 4%.
