Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who advanced to a primary runoff earlier this week against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn, posted a series of conditions on Thursday that he said would potentially lead him to bow out of the race.
The comments come just hours after President Donald Trump said he would endorse a candidate in the race “soon” — while demanding that the other Senate hopeful drop out of the race to avoid a costly runoff campaign.
“I would consider dropping out of this race if Senate Leadership agrees to lift the filibuster and passes the SAVE America Act,” Paxton wrote on X.
