Trump is enjoying this. He wants to see the left fail.
And Donald Trump announced the end of this Democrat’s campaign.
President Trump is firing on all cylinders as he backs a true fighter for the U.S. Senate in Texas.
Trump made clear his strong belief that his endorsed candidate, Attorney General Ken Paxton, will crush the upcoming primary runoff against Sen. John Cornyn and then steamroll the Democrat nominee in November.
Trump pulled no punches when discussing the opposition. He labeled Democrat James Talarico unelectable, pointing straight to the candidate’s lifestyle choices that clash hard with everyday Texans.
“He’s a vegan in Texas,” Trump declared, adding, “You can’t get elected as a vegan in Texas.”
Talarico burst onto the national scene after grabbing the Democratic nomination earlier this year.
Conservatives have hammered him relentlessly over a string of radical positions, from attacking core Christian beliefs to pushing wild ideas about gender and biology that most normal Americans reject outright.
While talking with reporters, Trump laid out a straightforward path to victory for Paxton.
He predicted the Attorney General will “win very substantially” against Cornyn, then win the general election against a deeply flawed opponent.
Paxton will “go on to defeat a very defective candidate that believes in six genders, and he takes hits at Jesus Christ, and he’s wearing a mask six months ago, anybody wearing a mask six months ago doesn’t get it.”
The president saved some of his sharpest barbs for Talarico’s personal habits that scream out-of-touch elitist to hard-working folks across the state.
Texas isn’t some coastal playground for trendy diets and lectures—it’s cattle country, where ranching fuels the economy and barbecue brings families together.
An old 2022 video resurfaced at just the right time, showing Talarico in full activist mode.
In the clip, he stated, “We have heard, I think, heard more and more issues of animal welfare. I think, not just because it’s the right thing to do, and it’s the moral thing to do, but also… necessary to fight climate change,” before declaring, “it is now existential that we try to reduce our meat consumption, and that we try to respect animals.”
He went even further: “So, I am proud to say that our campaign has officially become a non-meat campaign. So, we are only buying vegan products from our local vegan businesses.”
The same footage captured him sporting a mask, perfectly encapsulating the pandemic-era insanity many Texans have moved on from.
This kind of talk lands like a lead balloon in Texas. Real Texans understand that attacking the beef industry means attacking the heart of their way of life.
