The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

It's not about the party or about what you would call conservatism.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

They like seeing Trump take on the party.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

They like the way he attacks them.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

Yeah.

The Rest Is Politics: US

Here's what he said on Truth Social about John Cornyn, just to underscore that point.

The Rest Is Politics: US

John was very late in backing me in what turned out to be a historic run for the Republican nomination and then the presidency itself, both of which were landslide victories.

The Rest Is Politics: US

I mean, I don't think you need to read much further, right, to find out why he actually doesn't like John Cornyn.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

He was too late.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

Sorry, you were too late backing me.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

Anyway, it's going to be interesting now.

A political scientist down in Texas, who I spoke to late last night, said Texas is the Democrats' white whale.

The Rest Is Politics: US

They keep hoping they're going to win it, and they won't win it until they do.

The Rest Is Politics: US

And that will be having a very good Democratic candidate, a very weak Republican candidate, and enough Democratic money and funds being invested in the state of Texas.

The Rest Is Politics: US

This is their closest chance since Beto O'Rourke came close to defeating Ted Cruz.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

Let's see how well they do.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

It's going to be very interesting to see how well Democrats do in November in the state of Texas.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

And the way you campaign aggressively is you get in Trump's face with lots of flattery about him.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

You propose changing the names of highways, which does slightly beg the question, how easy is it to play Donald Trump?

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

Not just if you're an American politician, but if you're a leader around the world.

The Rest Is Politics: US
189. Trump’s Secret Slush Fund: His Most Corrupt Act Yet

They all know this now.
