Is George P. Bush's crushing defeat in Texas the end of the line for a Republican Party dynasty?

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, facing multiple scandals but very popular with conservatives for his legal crusades against President Biden’s administration, walloped challenger George P. Bush by a more than two-to-one margin in the GOP primary runoff election Tuesday.

Bush, who was the last elected member of his family’s political dynasty – which over four generations has produced two presidents, a vice president, a senator, two governors and a congressman – was long viewed as a rising star in the GOP and was elected and re-elected to the statewide office of Texas land commissioner. He acknowledged in a statement Tuesday night that "things didn’t go as we planned."

And in the wake of his defeat, Bush’s political future and the survival of his family’s brand are very much in doubt."History has shown there can be second acts in American politics, so I wouldn’t say never. But I think that he is politically greatly diminished from the results last night," longtime Texas based GOP strategist Brendan Steinhauser told Fox News.

And he predicted that in the short term "I think it’s more likely he goes into the private sector."

1. Dynasties never end. They morph and scheme to return to power. For generations.

Ask the Hapsburg and the Hohenzollern and the Bourbon to name a few.

9. Those dynasties are all dead and gone.

2. George P. sucked up "bigly" to TFG after the latter seriously dissed P's father

during the primaries.

P. continued to suck up and TFG gave his endorsement to Paxton.

P. thought he was in the HOV Lane for President. First TX Land Commissioner. Then TX AG. Then TX Governor. Then POTUS.

Like uncle, like nephew: Miserable Failure.
