Perhaps you are right in that he's lying about wanting it passed.

But it doesn't matter because the votes aren't there! Why is that so hard for people to see?

There's a reason Pres Trump is not hammering Thune on this. He knows that the "problem children" can't be reasoned with.

So, what? Repubs don't have a senate whip? Isn it their job to get these people in line? Useless bunch.

You know who never cries about not being able to pass things when they're in control? Democrats. They just make it happen.

Republicans are feckless.

Just like the Texas legislature, half the republicans in the Senate are actually Dems.

I'm guessing internals for Cornyn are looking pretty bad right now given the exponential increase in Paxton attack adds and flyers I have seen/received recently.

I cant wait to vote against Cornyn this month.

Seen plenty of Paxton is "bad "commercials

---

Correct. That's what I said.

Probably

But I think Paxton could lose to fake-arico

Wanna bet?

Don't rename it. Renumber it. People will know...

That's an idea. The BCs area could rename Highway 47 to Trump Road.

Why do I picture that crying woman/thing driving a car meme?

I'm wondering how you'll feel when your boy Paxton loses the mod votes & goes down the tubes to Talerico.

---

I don't like Paxton or Corny but what kind of idiot would vote for Talerico?

Cornyn reminds me of Kerry, both having big old horse heads. He is pathetic and doing stupid stuff trying to suck up and get reelected. Not a fan of Paxton but Cornyn needs to be rewarded by getting kicked out of office.

Introducing a bill to name US 287 after President Donald Trump is the latest desperation move by incumbent Sentaor John Coryn because he knows the runoff polls aren't look good for him. Still, I am voting for Cornyn in the runoff after voting for Hunt in the primary because I think Ken Paxton is too much of a risk against James Talarico. That risk comes from not only a loss of independent voters but even some Cornyn supporters. We must keep this seat red, and Cornyn is the much better choice to do that. If Paxton wins the runoff, I will vote for him in the general election.

Cornyn has always done crap like this. Campaign like a conservative for 6 months, throw in plenty of red meat for the gullible masses, and then go govern for 5-1/2 years like a Democrat.

---

It's essentially the Republican playbook at this point. I honestly think one of the greatest blindspots of this board in general, is thinking the left is the only one with useful idiots who propel unworthy politicians into power.

Just Stop with this Nonsense. The Closet Boy has been outed.
Lol at the Madd magazine guy being electable in Texas.

How did Texas end up with such a bunch of d-bags for Senate choices?

Good lord he's desperate. His social media and campaign team are miserably failing. It's almost like he's never really had to campaign and took it all for granted.

I've previously joked that Interstate 45 should be renamed the Donald Trump Freeway. Just because it's 45.

i have not seen any negative ads for Cornyn - am I just missing them because I mainly watch YouTube stuff? Seen plenty of Paxton is "bad "commercials but nobody is claiming them so I can't tell if the dem or cornyn sponsored

---

All the negative Paxton ads I've seen playing look like they're funded by the Texas republican PACs. Never donate to the RNC, or their affiliates in the states. Too many Rinos running them.

Can resident MAGA advise whether the political capital gained from this proposal is more from trolling Democrats or more for supplying the narcissism of Dear Leader?

With ChatGPT's help, a theme song:

Well, if you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way, it's the highway that's the best
Get tremendous kicks -- the best kicks, folks --
Drive to heaven on I-47

Starts down in Port Arthur, Texas way,
Beautiful refineries, many people say,
Beaumont loves me, tremendous crowd,
The road is wide, the trucks are loud.
You roll through Palestine (the good one), Corsicana too,
Waxahachie -- great people, very true.
Fort Worth says "Sir, your highway's grand!"
Biggest interstate in the whole darn land.
Drive to heaven on I-47

Now Decatur's nice, Wichita Falls,
Everybody waving from the shopping malls.
Amarillo steaks -- they're huge, okay?
Nobody else grills beef the Texas way.
Then Oklahoma, Boise City style,
Not a lot there, but we wave and smile.
Colorado comes with mountains tall,
Denver traffic? We're fixing it all.
From Laramie up through Yellowstone,
Bison crossing, tremendous tone.
People say the bears all love my route --
Frankly, the smartest bears, without a doubt.
Drive to heaven on I-47

Montana skies, Helena pride,
Cowboys driving cattle roadside.
Beautiful pavement, classy signs,
Gold letters -- very expensive designs.
So make that trip and take it slow,
From the Gulf Coast up where cold winds blow.
And when they ask who built this way,
You tell 'em: "Trump. The USA!"
Drive to heaven on I-47
Drive to heaven on I-47
Drive to heaven on I-47

Whoever the GOP nominee is, he'll win in the general by anywhere from 2-8 percentage points. Abbot's margin will likely be double digits. Texas polling has historically been horrible.

Cornyn's campaign ads are as bad as his brisket. Almost.

Actually this is pretty genius by Cornyn; Trump is a sucker for stupid crap like this.

Regardless of the politics they do need to upgrade 287 to an interstate between Fort Worth and Amarillo; maybe extend it to IH25 in Raton since most of 87 between Raton and Amarillo is already divided.
