Trump busted for denying part in GOP's Texas rout: 'He was most definitely involved'

President Donald Trump denied his involvement in a Texas special election after a major Democratic win in Texas flipped a deep red seat blue.

Since November 2025, Democrats have gained significant wins in elections, putting Republicans on edge with midterm elections on the horizon this fall, wrote MS NOW's Steve Benen, producer of “The Rachel Maddow Show," in an analysis post published Monday.

Trump has apparently attempted to distance himself from his own failures, Benen explained.
