Paxton’s gearing up to challenge Sen. John Cornyn in a primary, and we know Trump is supporting Paxton. Obviously, to Trump being criminally-curious isn’t a disqualifier—it’s a qualifier! Hell, it's a prerequisite!

Well folks, Donald Trump's found yet another mirror to stare lovingly into—in the form of Texas AG and full-time felony collector, Ken Paxton. Yep, a guy who’s been indicted for securities fraud, accused of bribery & allegedly used his office to help a donor cover up an affair. Could Trump find a more kindred spirit

Paxton’s gearing up to challenge Sen. John Cornyn in a primary, and we know Trump is supporting Paxton. How, we'll tell you all about it in the video! Obviously, to Trump being criminally-curious isn’t a disqualifier—it’s a qualifier! Hell, it's a prerequisite!

So, yes, Cornyn's plenty awful. He's played Mitch McConnell's fiddle while DC burned, as his lieutenant in Senate GOP leadership. Cornyn sucks in a major way. But, next to Paxton, he seems like Alice Paul. And there's your modern GOP: choosing between absolutely awful & criminally-curious. And Trump’ll be all in on the latter.

Watch the video for the rest of the story! And remember to support independent media by SUBSCRIBING to Cliff's Edge. With what we've seen this week from The Pennsylvania Governor's mansion to a concentration camp cosplaying as a prison in El Salvador, it's more important than ever before.
