When Democratic nominee James Talarico stopped holding campaign events in the Texas Senate race, his Republican opponent Ken Paxton saw an opening to pounce.
“Where is James Talarico?” he called out Wednesday during a rally with Donald Trump in San Antonio.
But that night, while flying back to Washington on Air Force One, Trump seemed to inadvertently throw Talarico a lifeline. The president said on social media that Talarico — who has the flu, according to his campaign — “should immediately report to a Debate Stage” to face off with Paxton.
It was exactly what Talarico wanted to hear, since he had long been badgering Paxton for a debate.
Also, why can’t ding-a-ling donnie even pronounce “vegan” properly, for fucks sake?
He sounds like a goddamned alien in a skin suit when he talks about Talarico.
It’s 2026, and assholes like donnie are still trying to paint being plant-based as totally gay and fem or whatever. I swear that assholes like donnie are going to lose their fucking minds if vat grown scales up, because lots of people are going to eat something that doesn’t involve suffering. If being a vegetarian for 20+ years is any indication, they won’t be able to ever shut the fuck up about it if they are even sitting near someone eating vat-grown…
Of course, some states have preemptively banned it and it’s pretty easy to guess which ones. 🙄
It didn’t go so well for his other buddy Rodgers. The plight of having to defend his lifelong dream of an Iran war and the Trump tariffs were too much.
The people who need to hear and understand what Talarico will say will not care that he mops the floor with Paxton.
I don’t think that’s true. If Talarico makes the case that Paxton and Trump are the kind of people Jesus would have whipped out of the temple, which is a pretty succinct summary of his whole campaign imo, then there are definitely people in Texas who would care about that. That simple fact is the entire reason Paxton has categorically refused a debate thus far. It’s also the reason Talarico’s interview with Kimmel aired on YouTube instead of NBC (or whatever dumb network Kimmel’s show is on).
LOL, I wonder if Dump actually loathes Paxton.
This.
He does. Paxton stated that his poll numbers were hurt by Trump’s midterm convention. Trump doesn’t respond well to comments like that.
