FORT WORTH, Texas — Donald Trump is like that toxic ex who refuses to get the message: It was fun while it lasted, but now that you’ve broken up and moved on, he just won’t go away.
The former president announced Tuesday night that he’s running for the 2024 Republican nomination, months before someone in his position normally would do such a thing. No matter, two of the highest-profile Texas Republicans immediately rushed to support him.
Ken Paxton, our ingratiating and criminally indicted attorney general, tweeted Wednesday morning: “Donald J. Trump’s efforts to secure our borders, project strength across the globe, expand economic opportunity, & protect our freedoms put our nation back on track. I am proud to endorse his campaign for President so that he can once again put America First & heal our nation.”
