Ken Paxton defeated incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in the Texas Republican Senate primary runoff this week. He quickly turned to attacking Democratic nominee James Talarico with a series of insults centered on masculinity.
Paxton won the runoff 64-36 after receiving an endorsement from President Donald Trump the previous week. In his victory speech Tuesday night, Paxton referred to Talarico as “Six-Gender Jimmy,” “Low-T Talarico,” “Tofu Talarico,” and “James Tala-freako.” He also released an ad labeling Talarico “too low-T for Texas.”
