Texas Republican Morgan Luttrell won a contested House primary over an opponent backed by the GOP's far-right flank.
Luttrell, a former Navy SEAL endorsed by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, bested several other candidates in the primary, including conservative activist Christian Collins, who was backed by Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.). Collins had also previously worked for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
The Flatulent Fool's presidency has been such a disaster that it's a virtual certainty that there will be a sizable GOP majority in the House beginning next January.
To me, perhaps the most compelling question in this election is which GOP party will be running the House.
The GOP has become the party of diversity and inclusion in the past decade and there are several possible ways the GOP could establish its majority. Libertarian? Populist? Liz Cheney, classic Reagan conservative? Jerry Falwell social conservative?
Get used to it Dems, it's going to be some amalgamation of those ingredients.
