John Cornyn's defeat in the Texas Senate primary by Ken Paxton, despite spending $92 million, marks a shift in the Republican party. Paxton, endorsed by Donald Trump, won by 28 points despite allegations of misconduct. The National Republican Senatorial Committee erased Cornyn's campaign, signaling the party's transformation.
