Trump ally and embattled Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton squares off tomorrow against challenger George P. Bush, the scion of the Bush family dynasty, in a Republican runoff.
Why it matters: The Paxton-Bush race is a distillation of the internecine politics in the Trump-era GOP.
The big picture: The race has gotten nasty, with Bush calling Paxton a crook unfit to be the state's top law enforcement official.
