Renee from Dallas Texas Writes, Even though his poll numbers are in the low 30s it would seem the Trump hold on the Republican party is still strong. Here in Texas, Paxton has won the primary ousting John Cornyn. It wasn’t only a win, it was a massive win for Paxton. (As I write this Paxton is up by more than 20 points.) Now I was never a fan of Cornyn, but Paxton is on a different level of POS. Democrats seem happy that Paxton won, I’m guessing because they think they will have an easier time beating Paxton in the general. What does the panel think? Is Paxton the easier candidate. Rumors have it that Cornyn might run as an independent. Do you think he will and will this have an impact on the general? Might Cornyn, like Massie, use his remaining time to trash Trump?
