senseandsensibility

(25,555 posts) Tue May 19, 2026, 08:14 PM Tuesday

Susan Collins is confused, concerned, and doesn't understand why trump [View all]

would endorse Paxton over Cornyn. She called Paxton "ethically challenged". Of course she also said it was the president's call.

Can anyone enlighten Sue about why trump would prefer the ethically challenged candidate?
