Fake endorsement backfires as irked MAGA Rep backs opponent in heated primary
More chaos erupted on Wednesday in the Republican Texas primary for agriculture commissioner, as a MAGA congressman caught the incumbent commissioner falsely claiming that he had endorsed him.
The seeds of the conflict were planted last month, reported Brad Johnson of Texas Bullpen, when Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller, facing a hotly contested primary and trying to overcome years of scandals, made multiple social media posts claiming he had been endorsed by North Texas Rep. Ronny Jackson.
