Winning a surprise Republican primary election victory in Texas last night, 33-year-old former Navy SEAL Dan Crenshaw is in a strong position to win election to Congress in November.

Crenshaw’s victory is important for a simple reason: It shows that Republican candidates can win without much fundraising and while also being intellectually impressive and not totally submissive to President Trump. That’s a good thing for a Republican Party that needs to have a diversity of opinions and a recognition that Trump won’t be president for life.
