During Texas trip President Trump reportedly discussed appointing Paxton as US Attorney General to shakeup GOP Senate primary
Under increased MAGA pressure to dismiss AG Bondi over Epstein files, a potential plan could come together to make Paxton AG, changing dynamics in Texas Senate race
From the
item in Mediaite by Sarah Rumpf:
It’s
well known that “John Cornyn refuses to let a scumbag like Ken Paxton sit in
Sam Houston’s Senate seat,” the source said, but Paxton wasn’t content to just
remain as the Texas AG.
So how
to get Paxton out of the way?
The
solution, according to the source, was for Trump to get rid of Bondi, Paxton to
drop out of the Senate race, Trump to nominate Paxton for AG, Cornyn to
announce he was retiring, and Hunt to announce he was running for Senate — in a
now-open seat, not challenging an incumbent.
