Good news will work its way to all them plans

Now this right here is a day-brightener (for real):
President Donald Trump on Tuesday endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, supercharging his effort to oust incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in a Republican primary runoff.
Paxton and Cornyn qualified for the May 26 runoff after a March 3 primary, while Rep. Wesley Hunt finished third and did not advance.
Although the four-term Cornyn has backed Trump’s agenda in Washington, Paxton pitched himself as a political warrior for the Make America Great Again movement.
Trump’s endorsement puts him at odds with his party’s establishment, which is convinced that Cornyn is the better candidate for November’s general election. The Democrats nominated Texas State Rep. James Talarico as their candidate for Senate.
The runoff had been shaping up as a bitter and expensive battle for the future of the Republican Party, and one that was diverting resources from other competitive races elsewhere in the country.
Paxton is by far the weaker candidate in the general, because his comically flagrant personal and political corruption (the girls tell me those are the same) will turn off some normie “independent voters” aka Republicans who are too embarrassed to come right out and scream it.
As to why Trump chose him, who knows but Trump’s razor says it’s for the stupidest imaginable reason, and Occam’s razor says he was bribed.
Anyway, this greatly boosts James Talarico’s chances, even though he was accused recently (the actual word used in news reports regarding the incident) of eating a vegan taco or something.
