Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas faces YouTube personality Brandon Herrera, known as 'The AK Guy,' in runoff on Tuesday.
The Texas Republican Party gathered in San Antonio for its annual convention this weekend, but GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales, who represents part of San Antonio and lives there, was ambivalent about attending. That's not entirely surprising — one of the featured speakers was Rep. Matt Gaetz, who endorsed Gonzales' opponent, Brandon Herrera, in Tuesday's GOP primary runoff in the 23rd District.
In response to those endorsements, Gonzales said on CNN in March that he serves 'with some real scumbags' and told CBS News in a recent interview that these lawmakers and his opponent aren't 'serious people.' 'There's a bigger battle happening outside this race, and it is what is the future of the Republican party going to look like?' Gonzales said.
