Two legends on one bus: President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump both won their Texas primaries on Tuesday, moving them closer to a rematch in the November presidential election.

President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump won their Texas primaries on Tuesday, propelling them closer to a rematch in the November presidential election.

 

 

Both men easily carried the state, the AP declared shortly after the last polls closed in Texas at 8 p.m. Central Time. Biden faced no viable challengers in the Democratic primary. And Trump defeated his last challenger, Nikki Haley. Haley suspended her campaign Wednesday morning after losing primaries across the country on Tuesday.

 

Trump’s victory in Texas was not always a foregone conclusion. After the 2022 midterms, Republicans blamed Trump for significant losses, and many prominent state leaders were hesitant to endorse the former president, who also faced mounting legal problems. A November 2022 poll showed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis leading Trump.

A November 2022 poll showed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis leading Trump.

 

 

But Trump actively sought early support from the Texas congressional delegation. Meanwhile, DeSantis failed to live up to expectations and enthusiasm over his candidacy dwindled. As Trump’s nomination appeared increasingly inevitable, state leaders rallied around him; Gov. Greg Abbott offered Trump an endorsement last November during a trip to the Texas-Mexico border.

 

Endorsements from U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn followed in January. Once he dropped out, DeSantis backed Trump, too. That left Haley as Trump’s only viable opponent, and he polled ahead of her by more than 60 percentage points in January

Serena Williams husband opened up on how fatherhood changed him as a man, killing off his selfishness by putting his children before anyone else in the world as his daughter changed his life instantly.

 

 

Alexis Ohanian, who is famous and wealthy for founding the popular social media website, Reddit, began a relationship with the tennis ace back in 2015 before they married in 2017, but it wasn’t until they had kids in September that year that Ohanian began to change.

 

can’t tell you how many decisions I made in my twenties and my thirties pre-fatherhood that were so selfish,” Ohanian said to Business Dad. “And it was so geared around, ‘I’ve got look out for me, this is it.’

 

And like yeah I might be with someone whatever but I’m still at the end of the day it’s still me above all. It’s a liberating thing to now know, ‘Actually it’s not that important, Alexis.’ These humans, like this is your charge, this is your responsibility now. This is your legacy.

 

“And all the other s**t doesn’t actually matter. There’s two humans now whose opinion I really care about and they’re my kids.”
