President Donald Trump has publicly criticized fellow Republicans regarding the ongoing Texas Senate race, where Ken Paxton is reportedly facing difficulties. Sources indicate President Trump is preemptively assigning blame should Paxton not succeed in the contest.
Specifically, President Trump named Senator John Cornyn and political strategist Karl Rove, stating they would be responsible if Paxton loses. He accused both Cornyn and Rove of not supporting Paxton, asserting their actions are "hurting Texas."
Reports also highlight that a significant number of Texas Republicans are not backing Ken Paxton in the current contest. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
