Trump Jokingly Calls Paxton a ‘Pain in the Ass’ at Texas Event
Trump urged North Texas voters to back Ken Paxton for Senate as new polling shows the race remains tight, with Democrats calling it a toss-up.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump visited a Peterbilt Motors factory in Denton, Texas, to promote American manufacturing and campaign for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton ahead of November midterm elections.
- Trump previously endorsed Paxton in the GOP primary, though leaked audio surfaced where Paxton complained the September convention in Dallas "dropped our numbers," which his campaign called "manipulated nonsense."
- During his speech, Trump jokingly called Paxton "a pain in the ass" before pivoting to praise, declaring the attorney general "the greatest attorney general in the United States of America."
- With the election against Democratic state Rep. James Talarico remaining tight, Trump contends his personal involvement is essential because "we can't get the word out" regarding key races.
- Over the next five weeks, Trump plans 20 to 25 campaign stops, with the president scheduled to hold a rally in Alabama on Friday night to support Republican candidates.
