since Jackson is supposed to be a lock in that district, I wouldn’t mind seeing some really nasty commercials accusing him of being a drug supplier to DC’s rich and powerful…

Since he is a physician, we should make him take stands on Masks, Shutdowns and other Covid related things.

Either show he’s another toady and shame him because he is a physician and should know better, or make him take stands opposite the president.

Every state has its fair share of idiotic members of state and federal legislatures and offices. But Texas voters ring that bell with amazing frequency. Louie Gohmert, Ted Cruz, Blake Farenthold, Joe Barton, Tom DeLay, Dan Crenshaw, Ron Paul, John Ratcliffe, Chip Roy, Steve Stockman. Ken Paxton, Dan Patrick.
It’s a veritable murderers row of lunacy, all in one state.

Probably he was a shoe-in because of the Trump connection, even if he was too incompetent for the worst president in history.

Because Texas.

Also, a name like Josh Weingarner sounds suspiciously like, um, “uh, you some kinda Noo Yorker?” Hint, hint.

Does anyone know anything about this district? Does the Democratic candidate have a prayer in November?

Just what Texas needs…another guy that’s full of shit. He’ll be a double dipping Trumper which is hardly what a state battling a threat to the lives of it’s people grounded in Trump loving politics needs.

My grandmother used to say…" Cheer up…things could be worse". Well Texas they just got worse.
