From being supportive of Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas., to launching a primary campaign against him, Texas GOP state Rep. Steve Toth says there needs to be new leadership in Washington, since Crenshaw has, he says, “cozied up” to the swamp.
“I got behind Dan in 2018 when he decided to run,” Toth said on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show last week. “I mean, it was a man-crush. I mean, here we have a Navy SEAL war hero that was running. He said he was going to upset the apple cart. He said he was going to be a disruptive influence. He said he was going to fight the Democrats.”
Crenshaw was first voted into office in 2018 to serve the second congressional district of Texas. Prior to being in office, he served in the U.S. military as a Navy SEAL for ten years.
“Instead, as soon as he got there, he cozied up to them [the Democrats] and decided it was good to be here,” Toth said. “It was good to be part of the swamp.”
Hardcore MAGA calls Crenshaw a “RINO”
Over the past few years, Crenshaw has gotten into some controversy among Republicans and has been called a “Republican in Name Only” (RINO) by the MAGA wing of the GOP.
In January 2023, he was rejected by House Republicans to chair the House Homeland Security Committee following his much-maligned labeling of dissident GOP lawmakers as “terrorists.”
