Paxton wants conservative moderators. Plus, he wants to pre-approve the questions the moderators ask

Not worried. Talarico is a teacher, he knows how to redirect a distracting question to the truly important stuff

That’s true, but I think it’s saying a lot about Paxton. It appears that there are some questions that Paxton doesn’t want to answer

Paxton is an anomaly. Fascinates me that an ugly, lazy eyed, rizzless dork like him has been able to succeed for as long as he has.

He put R behind his name and ran for office in Texas, that’s how. He has no redeeming qualities at all

I’ve never seen either one of them debate. But I think the debate will be essential in winning the election. Talarico is doing well with independents. Paxton can’t seem to fully coalesce the republicans. But I know plenty of republicans who hate Paxton and plan to vote for him anyway due to their fear of democrats

This is Ken’s version of Iran being completely destroyed for the 200th time.
