I would be so very happy to be rid of Mr. Paxton

Your article is over the top nasty! “Let us set our sights on the glorious privileges of mainstream corruption in the U.S. Senate. Hail MAGA!” ?????? Are you actually pointing to MAGA as the root and cause of corruption in the U. S. Senate? MAGA is a movement comprised of American citizens fed up with the cesspool that the entire U. S. Government has become. The people who joined MAGA wanted to see America return to its best days when its people prospered and it was respected in the world. Trump just found a perfect name for it and formed a coalition party for these people to rally around. Cornyn, a Republicrat, formed in the image and likeness of corrupt Mitch McConnell, and poised to step into his shoes as soon as Mitch steps out of his, is not a part of the MAGA movement but another reptilian swamp creature. As for Paxton and the charges lodged against him, none of us should speak with authority on their validity since he was a victim of the corrupt politicians with judicial power. So guilty or not, who knows? The DOJ also charged Trump with 34 felonies made of sand. Your TDS has seriously affected your reporting. I’m not sure it was ever objective but it is presently vitriolic and non professional. Just let Paxton’s messy divorce unfold. The Senate race will be something to behold. If a good man does not win, the people of Kentucky and American people will be the losers.

Nope. I’m not making that assertion. I’m asserting that Paxton is corrupt, and there have been senators who are more corrupt. And also, Paxton is the archetypal “hail MAGA!” politician.

You make a few good points but like it or not, Paxton's a loser and Cornyn is the better candidate so far.

Well, if Paxton is as corrupt as McConnell and as swampy as Cornyn, neither of them should represent Kentucky.

As it turns out, everyone agrees on your final point.

Though mostly because they are from Texas, not Kentucky.

If you're against corruption, I have some obvious insider trading surrounding the tariffs announcements - and of course blatant bribes via crypto - for you to consider re Trump.

Patty, how you handling the whole Epstein debacle MAGA has going on now? Either you've been lied to for a decade, or you're being lied to now.
