Trump mocks Paxton's suit while endorsing him as best attorney general
President Donald Trump mocked Texas GOP Senate nominee Ken Paxton's appearance and clothing during a Wednesday speech, while simultaneously endorsing him as the best attorney general. The remarks drew immediate ridicule from social media commentators. Trump said Paxton's suit "doesn't look so great" and criticized his looks and television interviews, but argued his record outweighed these flaws. Critics, including Meidas Touch and political commentator Vince Wilson, responded with sarcastic posts suggesting the insults could hurt Republican chances in Texas. The event highlighted Trump's unconventional endorsement style, mixing praise with personal jabs. Paxton, a staunch ally of Trump, faces a competitive Senate race, and the comments sparked debate over whether such remarks aid or undermine his campaign.
