Guessing not, but the similarities between Texas AG Ken Paxton and Cheeto are striking.
Both have called for followers to rally/riot (my term, not theirs) in support, both have cheated on their wives, and both have been impeached.
First up: Paxton's call for his supporters to "rally" to prevent his impeachment. From The Guardian (UK) -
Texas attorney general urges supporters to protest at capitol ahead of impeachment vote
The Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, has urged his supporters to protest at the state capitol when Republicans in the House of Representatives take up historic impeachment proceedings against him.
The state House has set a Saturday vote to consider impeaching Paxton and suspending him from office over allegations of bribery, unfitness for office and abuse of public trust – just some of the accusations that have trailed him for most of his three terms.
Then: Paxton cheating on his wife. From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram -
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s mistress at heart of allegations in impeachment papers
At the heart of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s recent troubles is that he used his office to help a political donor — Austin real estate investor Nate Paul — in exchange for allegedly helping the attorney general remodel his home and giving Paxton’s mistress a job in his company.
According to thedailybeast.com, “Paxton reportedly acknowledged the affair with the woman, who worked as an aide to a Texas state senator, to his staff in 2018 and said he had ended it.”
Finally: Paxton has been impeached, too. From the Texas Tribune -
Texas AG Ken Paxton impeached, suspended from duties; will face Senate trial
Defying a last-minute appeal by former President Donald Trump, the Texas House voted overwhelmingly Saturday to impeach Attorney General Ken Paxton, temporarily removing him from office over allegations of misconduct that included bribery and abuse of office.
The vote to adopt the 20 articles of impeachment was 121-23.
The vote itself, from the Texas Legislature -
The Paxton matter now moves to the Texas State Senate for a trial, where, interestingly, Angela Paxton, Ken's cheated-on wife, is a member.
Not sure how she will vote, or even if she will conflict herself out and simply not vote on the matter.
It's rather unusual for Republicans to hold one of their own accountable, for, well, *anything,* but like the Liz Harris mess here in AZ (where she was expelled from the legislature for inviting a guest to testify at a committee hearing who accused other Republicans of being corrupt), but Paxton made it personal when he called for the Texas house speaker to resign over allegations that he was drunk while presiding over the Texas House.
