“Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) nearly became Senate majority leader 18 months ago, ending up just a few votes shy of capturing the prestigious post,” Punchbowl News reports.
“Now Cornyn’s 24-year Senate career is over, all at the hands of a vengeful president and an unhappy base.”
“With President Donald Trump’s eleventh-hour backing, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton defeated Cornyn in the GOP primary runoff by a whopping 28-point margin.”
“The advertising price tag for this Republican primary alone: $130 million. But the general election price tag will make the primary look like child’s play.”
