Britt Urges Trump to Endorse Cornyn in Texas Senate Runoff

0:00I'm Corey, and this is your pulse of the city, Birmingham News today. Senator Katie Britt is calling on President Donald Trump to endorse Senator John Cornyn in the Texas Republican Senate runoff. Cornyn faces off against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton after their primary ended too close to call. The runoff comes after both candidates perform strongly in the first round. A nod from Trump could shift the momentum big time and might even convince one side to bow out early. Trump once labeled Cornyn a Republican in name only, but Cornyn surprised many by doing better than expected. Paxton remains a close ally to the Maga crowd and has strong support there. In a recent interview, Britt praised Cornyn for his leadership in the Senate and for advancing Trump's goals. She called him the strongest pick to win the general election in November. The runoff victor will take on Democrat James Talleriko in the midterm race later this year. This DNN story comes to you thanks to our sponsor.
