Interesting. Texas GOP speaker of the Texas house caught on tape offering the leader of a conservative activist group media credentials in exchange for helping the GOP defeat 10 moderate Republican House incumbents in the primaries.
Now six of the Texas House GOP reps say they won't run for re-election, providing new opportunities for Dems, in a state that is split 50/50 on Trump. Maybe Texas won't be as solidly red as everyone thought.

Seems that lately, the far right, belligerent end of the GOP spectrum just keeps stumbling into one gaffe after another.

Maintaining the ideological integrity of your party and its platform is a "scandal"?
