Talarico desperately walks back ‘God is nonbinary’ claim, blames Paxton for clipping ‘cringy comments’

James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas, is now trying to distance himself from a controversial claim he made in 2021, where he stated that "God is nonbinary." This move comes as he faces off against Republican candidate Ken Paxton in the general election. Talarico's attempt to walk back his statement has been criticized as desperate, especially after he blamed Paxton for editing out what he calls "cringy comments." This controversy underscores the intense political climate and the lengths candidates will go to in order to distance themselves from controversial past remarks.
