Peter Baker: If Ken Paxton Is Saying Trump’s Too Toxic for Him, That’s a Real Sign of Trouble

EXCERPT:

BAKER: “I think if Ken Paxton is telling you that you're too toxic for him, that's a real sign of trouble, right? In other words, Ken Paxton, of course, who is a very, very controversial, very polarizing figure in Texas, many Republicans refuse to vote for him because of his record on ethics and so forth. So for him to say Trump is making his life more difficult, very revealing in that way. You're right, John Cornyn, who lost in the primary to Paxton in part because of Trump's support for Paxton is probably out there saying to somebody somewhere, 'I told you so.' You know, Chuck knows better than I would, but I think obviously if John Cornyn were the nominee, Republicans would not be that worried about Texas, certainly not as worried as they are.”
