Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton \u2014 whose political foibles include alleged election law violations and a London jaunt on the Fourth of July with a woman who is not his wife \u2014 has been caught in a boast that hundreds of people attended a campaign event, local and national reports show. <\/p>\n

“Paxton…held his rally at the University Draft House Tuesday evening,” myRGV reported. “It drew a modest audience, topping off at 100 attendees. However, his campaign team claimed 700 people attended.”<\/p>\n

As proof, the local outlet noted the venue can hold a maximum capacity of 200 people. It described the guests as “predominantly older, with a few youthful exceptions.” <\/p>\n

Trump \u2014 recently caught in inflating his own crowd sizes \u2014 endorsed Paxton to replace Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) in May.<\/p>\n

Texas Democrats were quick to jump on the report and shower Paxton in ridicule, the Daily Beast reported Saturday. <\/p>\n

\u201cKen Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America and a pathological liar, and apparently that extends to describing his crowd size, too,\u201d Texas Democratic Party spokesperson Ryan Martin said in a statement to the Daily Beast. \u201cA very Low-T move by the Paxton campaign.\u201d<\/p>\n

Online commenters were no less blunt. <\/p>\n

“Did you miss a decimal point?” X user Laurence Hayden replied to Paxton’s video post. “There\u2019s about 50 people there you disingenuous clown.”<\/p>\n

“How many times did you double count the same person?” asked X user Jessica Renae. <\/p>\n

“MAGA has always been bad at counting,” quipped Michael Farley. <\/p>\n

JT Ennis, a spokesperson for Paxton’s Democratic challenger Rep. James Talarico, shared the story with his 2,815 followers with the caption “lying about crowd size.” <\/p>\n
