Was anyone betting on Texas Republicans to remove one of their own? Reagan’s Eleventh Commandment was to not cross their own.
No, but honestly I wasn’t expecting them to vote to impeach one of their own in the first place.
How did that happen?
Did a little digging to confirm, there are only 12 Democratic Texas State Senators. So, while article title is correct, it is misleading. Should read “Paxton Impeachment Vote mostly follows party lines”. https://www.texastribune.org/2023/09/16/ken-paxton-impeachment-vote/
And no one should be surprised. The Republican party was never known for its honesty or integrity.
Texas Republicans: He may be a corrupt son of a bh, but he’s our corrupt son of a bh!
You can’t convince someone of anything if they’ve already made up their mind.
