Add The New York Post on Google President Trump mocked Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico on Wednesday — saying that “you can’t get elected as a vegan in Texas.”
Trump called Talarico, who recently became the subject of viral scorn for ordering a meatless taco, “a candidate that believes in six genders, and he takes it to Jesus Christ, and he’s wearing a mask six months ago — anybody wearing a mask six months ago doesn’t get it.
“He’s a vegan. He’s a vegan in Texas, and you can’t get elected as a vegan in Texas.”
Talarico said the Bible endorses abortion and that there are six genders. Omar Ornelas/El Paso Times / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Trump teased the Democrat for being a vegan in Texas — a state that takes meat seriously. REUTERS Talarico is leading Trump-endorsed Republican front-runner Ken Paxton in the RealClearPolitics polling average, but Trump predicted Paxton will win the GOP primary runoff next week against incumbent John Cornyn “very substantially” and then defeat Talarico in the Nov. 3 general election.
The president touted his political prowess, saying “I know how to win” and claiming bizarrely that “if we had Jesus Christ come down and count the votes, I would have won California.”
