James Talarico Claps Back At Ted Cruz And Ken Paxton's Relentless Attacks On His Masculinity [View all]

Texas Democrat and U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico fired back at his opponent, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Friday after the two Republicans echoed MAGA insults about his masculinity.

“I’ve said before, and I will keep saying that real men serve others; weak men serve themselves,” Talarico told MS NOW’s “The Briefing” host Jen Psaki. “And so I welcome this debate about what it means to be a man, and I don’t think Ken Paxton or Ted Cruz are in a position to tell anybody what a real man is.”

“Here’s what real men don’t do,” Talarico said Friday in response to the attacks. “They don’t lie and cheat their way through life, they don’t sell their soul to the highest bidder, they don’t steal from other people in order to enrich themselves.”

The Democrat hailed his adoptive father, Mark Talarico, as a true masculine figure, recalling how he would not only mow their lawn but his elderly neighbor’s as well, without being asked and without even talking about it.

“He just did it because that’s what a man does,” Talarico said. “A man takes responsibility, a man upholds his commitments to his family and his neighbors. A man does what’s right, even when no one is watching.”
