MAGA Purge Deepens: Crenshaw Ousted, Cornyn Forced to Runoff in Texas GOP Primaries

🔴 Breaking
What's Happening

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) lost his primary to state Rep. Steve Toth, who cast the four-term incumbent as insufficiently conservative — a race where Donald Trump backed Toth. Separately, Sen. John Cornyn, a four-term incumbent, was pushed into a runoff against a Trump-aligned challenger, alarming national Republicans who fear losing the Texas Senate seat.

Market Impact

A more MAGA-aligned Texas congressional delegation increases the probability of fiscal brinkmanship, hardline immigration policy, and resistance to defense spending compromises — all factors with downstream market implications for defense contractors and border-adjacent industries.

Broader Implications

The Texas results confirm that Trump's grip on the GOP primary electorate remains decisive in 2025, with establishment Republicans — even decorated veterans like Crenshaw — unable to survive without his endorsement.
