Corrupt Picasso-faced piece of shit Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is considering mounting a primary challenge against Senator John Cornhole Cornyn in 2026, the Dallas Morning News reports on what’s sure to be an entertaining battle between two Republicans that already hate each other.

Like really hate each other. And now that Paxton doesn’t have to worry about federal prosecution anymore he’s free to get revenge on Cornyn for publicly mocking his criminal behavior. Any challenge would be a tall order money-wise as Cornyn’s a formidable fundraiser. But as a “RINO” and a Mitch McConnell ally he’s already pretty unpopular with MAGA and should Pax enter probably the absolute best Cornyn could hope for is for convicted felon President-Elect Trump to stay neutral.

Cornyn’s already declared his intent to run again, but Dallas-area right wing radio host Mark Davis said it all depends on how he handles himself over the next year or so with Trump’s batshit scumbag nominees. “If he is a good soldier, not an obstructionist, not an annoyance to the Trump agenda, then he’ll be very hard to beat, even by someone as popular as Ken Paxton,” said Davis. “If Cornyn obstructs Trump’s nominees and then proceeds to do other things that reveal a certain distance between him and Trump, that will be all Paxton needs to be motivated to take him on. There’s still no guarantee that it’ll be successful, but it’ll be a battle of the titans that’ll show where we are in 2026.”

We’d like to be able to say a Paxton win against Cornyn makes it easier for a Dem to win, but this is Texas we’re talking about. They freaking reelected that asshole twice when he was under criminal indictment for nine years until he weaseled his way out if it. If anything – and it’s gotta be a really bad year for the GOP, like worse than 2006 – then it’s probably Cornyn who’d be more vulnerable than Paxton, who can count on a shit ton of “grassroots” MAGA support when the chips are down.
