If his wife wasn’t a state senator; I would not think the following. However, something is smelling foul here…
Ken Paxton nearly gets removed from office by the GOP dominated state legislature and barely comes out victorious against them. What does Paxton do?
Run a canpaign for US senate against John Cornyn to primary him and paint him as a “RINO”, like he did against many that voted for his impeachment. Who is polling higher right now? PAXTON.
What happens if Paxton wins the primary against Cornyn? Texas becomes a COMPETATIVE STATE for the 2026 midterms.
So how can the Texas GOP completely kneecap Paxton’s popularity with republican voters? Oh, just convince his wife to divorce him to try to tank his campaign. Paint him as an “anti-christian” to convince the christians.
So what I’m saying is that this is a Texas GOP lead conspiracy to try to tank Ken Paxton’s senate primary bid. As him becoming the nominee would put control of the US senate in play (potentially).
Or he could be a misogynistic twat who believes women are property and would strangle his kids of they were lgbt+. It could be that too.
It is infinitely more likely that the stress of the campaign trail, opportunities to cheat, and competing demands of their separate ambitions would bring a couple to the brink of divorce than… this suggestion.

I don’t understand why Texas would become competitive.
I think they are implying that the far-right Paxton would mobilize left-wing voters more than the not-quite-so-far-right Cornyn.
Hell, could be both.
