The Prissy President is freaking out over Talarico's 6 point lead in a new poll in Texas...

"Talafreako' they call him because he is a little freaky, Trump, who has endorsed Paxton in the closely watched race to succeed retiring Republican Sen. John Cornyn, said during an unrelated news conference on Thursday.

"And that's not a man that represents the value of Texas," Trump added."

--

"Talarico has focused his campaign on affordability, health care and education while portraying Paxton as too extreme for Texas voters.

He has also embraced the nickname, as he is selling T-shirts with the slogan "I'm a Talafreako" on his website."

NO on banning china from buying 100's of thousands of Texas acres..NO on ban of sending tax dollars to Chinese sources....NO on ban of men in women's sports... AND NO ON BAN OF DICKS IN YOUR LITTLE GIRLS / GRANDDAUGHTERS BATH/ LOCKER ROOM..

**Don't try and say there was already a ban on state tax because you're illiterate of the state constitution if you do.

ALARICO IS NUTS
"And I believe that Joe Biden has an impressive legislative agenda that rivals that of LBJ and Franklin Roosevelt.
"And I think with time we will appreciate exactly what Joe Biden has done for this country."
Talarico made the comments in 2024 - as the nation was reeling from Biden's DEI mandates, v*ccine mandates, record high inflation, and open borders that skyrocketed fraud, the price of housing and crime.
THE FOLLOWING IS A BULLSHIT LIE..NO SUCH THING AS A
border security Democrat"

alarico now claims he's a 'border security Democrat" who once 'called out Biden' however his campaign could not produce any public proof that he criticized Biden's border policy while Biden was still in office.
In fact, it appears from his own words that Talarico heavily supported and had loyalty to the Biden administration.
Inflation peaked at 9.1% in June 2022, the highest in four decades.
Gasoline rose by 31%.
Home prices jumped 37.4%.
Over 20 million illegal migrants were allowed into the country during Biden's term.
DEI and gender policy. On day one Biden signed an Executive Order 13985 directing a whole-of-government "equity" agenda and EO treating gender identity as a protected class under s*x-discrimination law.

"If you are okay with getting taxed more, if you're okay with me limiting your influence in politics, you are welcome to join this movement ... "

This is kind of a crazy statement isn't it? Are you okay with Tim limiting your influence in politics? Is that Democracy in action Lumper style?

Unlike the orange child rapist, Walz doesn't appear 30,000 times in the Trumpstein files.
