Of course, this is pretty hilarious considering Cornyn just submitted a bill to rename an interstate highway in Texas "I-47" and call it the Trump Interstate. I guess that wasn't enough for Trumpy boy. Paxton cheated on his wife, is soft on pedophiles and committed securities fraud, so I guess he and the Melon Felon are more simpatico.

Texas just became "Lean Democrat". Paxton is odious to moderates.
