Sen. John Cornyn officially launches reelection campaign
Fox News ^ | 3/26/25 | Steven Ardary

Sen. John Cornyn officially announced he would seek reelection Wednesday.

Cornyn made the announcement on X saying President Donald Trump needed a "battle-tested partner."

Attorney General Ken Paxton, who is rumored to be mounting a challenge to Cornyn, responded to the announcement on X asking if the senator was "delusional."

The Texas Republican will be seeking his sixth term in the Senate.

What they're saying

"President Trump needs a battle-tested partner by his side in Washington," Cornyn's campaign said. "The radical left thinks they can flip Texas blue, but Texans have a message for them – come and take it."

Can't get rid of these worthless people.

They have to be taken out in a primary, otherwise they get reelected.

If anyone needs a primary challenger, it’s this creep.

Oh, Lawdy, no.

Enough is enough “Big John”.

He runs a Big John ad every time he campaigns. Makes him look all conservativy.

PLEASE, AG Paxton, run against this vile DS tool!! 🙏🏻

Psychos here can do as they wish, but if Cornyn makes it to the November ballot, he sure as hell gets my vote. No way in hell will I give Schumer any more power than he already has.

I would rather see Paxton than Cornyn in the Senate. I would MUCH MUCH MUCH rather see Cornyn than ANY Democrat in the Senate.

He needs to retire, and go to a Gated Community and live next to Nancy Pelosi.

“Psychos here can do as they wish, but if Cornyn makes it to the November ballot, he sure as hell gets my vote. No way in hell will I give Schumer any more power than he already has.”

And that’s the box they LOVE to put us in: “Either our worthless pantywaist candidate...or the Democrat. Make your choice (heh heh).”

If we can’t have term limits the next best thing is primarying Cornyn. He is long of tooth and it should be his time to go. Paxton would be a much better choice for Texas.

MAGA Republicans need to form a MAGA committee to raise a lot of private funds to find Conservatives to challenge liberals running for any office across this country. TV ads flooding the airwaves and naming the liberals’ Judges and Rinos records. We have a lot of well-off people - yes- all private funds.
Large numbers of gatherings and billboard ads and even paid demonstrators, like what Democrats do all of the time.
From Seinfeld, let’s call the product “ An ATOMIC WEDGY”. Well, maybe not.

Do what you want, but my vote has been reflected in his undervote statistics the last 4 times he ran.

I’m waiting for Paxton to declare - he’s getting my money and vote. Screw the arch-RINO, Cornholio.

Remember when he said he wasn’t going to run again.

I’ve been told by someone who knows Paxton that he intends to run against Cornyn. I hope he does and retires John!!
