美国参议员托姆·蒂利斯近日在CNN《国情咨文》节目中抨击特朗普在德州共和党初选中支持肯·帕克斯顿而非现任参议员约翰·科尔尼的决定,称这是"巨大错误"和"无谓错误"1。帕克斯顿在5月初选中击败了担任四届参议员的科尔尼1,特朗普在初选前数天才公开表示支持帕克斯顿1。
帕克斯顿将于11月3日与民主党候选人詹姆斯·塔拉里科竞争参议院席位1。若塔拉里科获胜,将成为超过30年来首位在德州赢得州级职位的民主党人1。此前,帕克斯顿曾于2023年遭弹劾,随后被德州参议院无罪释放,并面临证券欺诈指控,但这些指控已根据2024年庭前转向协议撤销1。帕克斯顿的妻子安吉拉·帕克斯顿于2025年7月以"圣经理由"提交了离婚申请1。
U.S. Senator Tom Tillis has criticized former President Donald Trump's decision to support Ken Paxton over incumbent Senator John Cornyn in Texas's Republican primary, describing the endorsement as a "colossal mistake" and a "needless error." 1 Paxton defeated the four-term Cornyn in the May primary election 1 after Trump backed him just days before the contest. 1
Paxton now faces Democrat James Taralico in the November 3 general election. 1 Should Taralico prevail, he would become the first Democrat to win a statewide office in Texas in more than three decades. 1
The Texas Republican's path to the general election comes amid ongoing legal and personal complications. Paxton was impeached in 2023 and subsequently acquitted by the Texas Senate, 1 and faced securities fraud charges that were dismissed under a pretrial diversion agreement in 2024. 1 Additionally, his wife Angela Paxton filed for divorce in July 2025 citing "biblical grounds." 1
