This was from February, Trump has lost all goodwill from the swing Latinos by now. Demographics is still destiny but you need to listen to people on issues like Immigration and not sort everyone into neat identities.
At the very least, it will be much closer than 2018 Beto even in the gubernatorial race if Talarico runs. There were far too many Beto-Abbott voters in 2018.

Talarico has a shot of beating Abbott, because odds are good that voters are tired of Abbott's MAGA antics (as well as FDJT's highly unpopular DOGE program) and want someone else. Talarico comes off a moderate white guy like Beshear with progressive credentials against the evil, corrupt Abbott.
But Paxton? Seems like that guy gets away with a lot of shit and TX Rs are OK with it. I want to be proven wrong next year if both the governor and Senate seats in TX flip blue, I'm still wary.
Paxton is the most right wing politician in America other than Vance or Robinson maybe. He is a corrupt ultraconservative who's voiced support for recriminalizing and arresting homosexuals and is disapproved in state polls. Only the MAGA base loves him. The article says that the reason CornynтАЩs not giving up is because he's disgusted by Paxton. He was acquitted only in the Republican Senate after huge outside pressure. Just imagine at the very least, the millions and millions the GOP will waste in the primary as well as the general election next year.
I do like the idea of Rs spending hundreds of millions to keep a safe red Senate seat and less money going to vulnerable ones like Tillis and Collins. Hopefully it'd backfire on them like it did with Elon Musk and the SCOWI race earlier this month.
