News of the Colorado court decision to force President Donald Trump off the state ballot has connected the good people of Texas to the national political debate like never before. And with another move in Maine designed to interfere with the 2024 election, we see the Democrats and their Republican in Name Only enablers squaring off against President Trump in a pitched battle we Texans know all too well.
Joe Biden and the liberal Democrats have settled on their victory strategy for 2024. In 2016, it was their Russia Hoax. Now it’s their “Threat-to-Democracy Hoax,” when all the while, the Democrats are wielding weaponized federal and state government agencies — like the Colorado Supreme Court and the Maine Secretary of State’s office — to destroy this republic.
Here in Texas, we saw cynical politicians of both parties deploy a carbon copy of this weaponized government strategy against our democratically elected Attorney General and my friend, Ken Paxton. They didn’t like the fact that General Paxton and I had been busy suing the Biden administration for their unconstitutional overreach and were winning! And, like the three failed attempts to remove Trump from the presidency, these Lone Star State insiders’ impeachment strategy crashed and burned in September.
As a result, today, Texans know better than most that President Trump is right: This is the stuff of raging third-world communist tyrants waging an all-out war on American democracy.
And President Trump is also correct when he says this election will decide whether we are a fascist country or a free country — whether we have the rule of tyrants or the rule of law.
What Attorney General Paxton faced down and defeated is a reflection of the battle our nation is enduring as the “Get Trump” forces in both political parties pursue our former and future president.
