Cruz tells GOP to stop the infighting and back Paxton

Sen. Ted Cruz bluntly told fellow Republicans who were attacking Texas AG Ken Paxton to stop the infighting and back the nominee, arguing Paxton won a costly primary despite roughly $200 million in attack ads and that complaints should be saved for the primary. The remarks come as polls show the race essentially tied and as Cornyn criticized Paxton’s fundraising, with Paxton’s multiple scandals hanging over the campaign in a competitive Texas political landscape.
