'The right thing': Paxton, Cornyn trade blows in Texas primary but unite for Trump's Iran strikes

WACO, TEXAS — Two of this primary season’s fiercest rivals have one thing in common: unflinching support for President Donald Trump’s decision to strike Iran.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, are both leaning into their relationship with Trump and their record of support over the years as they vie for the Republican nomination in Texas’ contentious Senate primary. While it's a crowded primary, including Rep. Wesley Hunt, R-Texas, all eyes are on Paxton and Cornyn.
