Trump gets back at Ken Paxton after he criticized GOP convention calling struggling Senate hopeful a ‘pain in the a**’
Trump has repeatedly insulted Paxton, spending both days of his GOP convention complaining about his fashion sense
What the coverage shows
All four outlets center on the same basic pair of beats: Trump backing Ken Paxton while Paxton is shown criticizing the GOP convention and Trump’s effect on the race. CBS News and Breaking Points foreground the leaked audio and its impact on GOP numbers, while Newsweek and The Independent emphasize Trump’s own insults, with The Independent alone adding that he spent both convention days complaining about Paxton’s fashion sense.
