President Donald Trump recently criticized Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton during a keynote speech at a Republican convention aimed at supporting his and other GOP candidates in the upcoming midterm elections. Despite having endorsed Paxton, who is running in a closely contested U.S. Senate race against Democrat James Talarico, Trump took the opportunity during his speech in Dallas on Wednesday night to mock the Republican nominee in front of a crowd of supporters. Addressing the audience, Trump remarked on Paxton's appearance and speaking style, saying, "Some may not like the way he dresses. I don't. Although tonight he looked very spiffy in his blue suit, I must tell you." He also noted that "they may not like the way he talks. I can see that. A lot of people don't like the way I talk either. But we do get crowds? There's no question," Trump said, drawing laughter from the audience. Despite his lighthearted jabs, Trump continued to support Paxton, urging his base to back the attorney general in his Senate race. "He may not dress right. He may not talk exactly perfectly, and he may not be the best-looking guy I've ever seen, but you know what he is? He's the greatest Attorney General in America, and he deserves to be your next senator," Trump said, reinforcing his endorsement. This is a developing story, and further updates are expected as the midterm election campaign continues.
