"I think the message that people should take from this is fundamentally, you have got to serve the people who sent you, Vance said. And if you don't do that, you're going to find yourself out of step with voters or out of step with the president of the United States. And that's not a good place to be politically. That came after Vance said he's known Cornyn a long time, but unfortunately, when it really counted, Ken Paxton was there for the country and was there for the president and Cornyn was not."
"Vance also suggested Cornyn violated Trump's goal of having Republican lawmakers who fight for the good of the American people. Trump wants people who can't be bought by corporate lobbyists, who can't be bought by wall Street, who can't be bought by special interests, who are going to go to Washington and fight for the people who actually elected them to those positions, Vance said."
"The Highly Respected Attorney General of Texas, Ken Paxton, an America First Patriot, and someone who has always been extremely loyal to me and our AMAZING MAGA MOVEMENT, is running for the United States Senate, to represent a place I love and WON, BIG, three times, with 6.4 Million Votes in 2024 (The Most Votes in the History of the State, BY FAR)! Trump posted on Truth Social."
JD Vance backed President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in Paxton’s primary challenge to incumbent Sen. John Cornyn. Vance said lawmakers must serve the people who elected them and warned that being out of step with voters or the president is a politically bad position. Vance stated he has known Cornyn for a long time, but said Paxton was there for the country and for the president when it mattered, while Cornyn was not. Vance also said Cornyn violated Trump’s goal of having Republican lawmakers fight for the American people rather than corporate, Wall Street, or special interests. Trump endorsed Paxton after posting on Truth Social that Paxton is loyal and an America First patriot and MAGA warrior.
