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 Cornyn’s 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.
