3. The perfect scenario: Trump endorses Cornyn and Paxton wins.

IMHO, this is actually quite a plausible scenario, if not likely. If Trump stays out, I think Cornyn wins 53-47. If Trump endorses, this is a perfect opportunity for Dems to pick their opponent. We should be thinking about running attack ads against Cornyn, linking him with Trump, the Iran war, gas prices, and all that.
