A Republican familiar with Texas politics told NOTUS that Trump’s endorsement of the state’s Attorney General Ken Paxton could cost the GOP its Senate majority in the upcoming midterms, according to a report. <\/p>\n

Trump endorsed Paxton on Tuesday instead of Sen. John Cornyn ahead of the Texas runoff for the Republican Senate nomination. <\/p>\n

“As late as Monday afternoon, Senate leaders believed Trump was going to stay out of the race,” a source told NOTUS. “Especially with the runoff just a week away.”<\/p>\n

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on Tuesday it would be harder to win the Senate seat with Paxton as the nominee, according to NOTUS. <\/p>\n

“I think Paxton can win, yeah, but I think it’d be three times more expensive,” Graham said. <\/p>\n

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) agreed, telling reporters, “We’ve got to raise a lot more money now,” and that the endorsement “complicates” the GOP’s effort to keep its Senate majority. <\/p>\n

“The fact that the president would choose to endorse not Sen. Cornyn, but a candidate who probably is going to struggle mightily in the general, is a problem,” Murkowski added, according to NOTUS.<\/p>\n

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) had been trying “to sway Trump toward endorsing Cornyn or, at the very least, staying out of the race,” an aide told NOTUS. <\/p>\n

Trump told Thune in a phone call on Monday that “he was planning on endorsing Paxton but stopped short of saying it outright,” a senior Republican aide said to NOTUS. “Thune left the conversation with little clarity about what Trump would do.” <\/p>\n
