Trump heads to Texas to keep its 32 year red-streak—joining Elon Musk’s $158 million effort to keep ‘lunatic’ Dem candidate Talarico out of office
The president will appear in Corpus Christi and Lubbock in his effort to boost Republican Ken Paxton's campaign against Democrat James Talarico.
On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump will join Republican contenders Ken Paxton and Elon Musk in Texas to support their efforts in preventing a Democrat from gaining a statewide office for the first time in 32 years. The campaign is part of Trump's attempt to retain the Republican stronghold in the upcoming midterm elections.
Meanwhile, Musk has invested $158 million into defeating Democrat James Talarico in the closely contested U.S. Senate race. The billionaire tech mogul's efforts come as part of a broader Democratic message that emphasizes the corruption in politics due to excessive wealth and donations.
