I don’t know Seth Toth, but Crenshaw has been a disappointment. So I hope Toth is a major upgrade.

Toth will next battle Democrat Shaun Finnie, who ran unopposed in his party’s primary.

Some posters say they expected Crenshaw to lose. But legacy media was shocked that Crenshaw was having such a bad night. (WATCH)

NBC News reports Dan Crenshaw getting crushed in early vote by “monster margin.”

Lots of “wows.” pic.twitter.com/yt83FErEXV

There are no “wows” in the district. He was very unpopular here because we saw his repeated bad behavior. Lots of people recognized Crenshaw as a jerk who was unhinged often.

I can’t believe anyone can honestly be shocked by this. Crenshaw is an extremely unlikable SOB.
GOOD RIDDANCE

He definitely burned his bridges with MAGA.

Commenters did not hold back in expressing their disdain for Crenshaw.

Wow! My heart just skipped a beat at the thought of eye-patch McCain losing his seat! Didn’t realize I was so emotionally fragile….

Eyepatch McCain denied!

On the way out the door, can we please all adopt the name Cryclops? I’ve tried…Lord, how I’ve tried.

Crenshaw was a big disappointment. He originally presented himself as a conservative and then, once in power, he starting working with the Democrats to enrich himself. He was/is the proverbial “snake in the grass.”

Many posters accused Crenshaw of being a fake conservative.

Commenters say Crenshaw was serving himself by engaging in insider trading in Congress instead of serving his constituents.

You mean the guy that said congress should be allowed to insider trade because they don’t get paid enough lost?

That’s okay he doesn’t mind he’s already made his millions insider trading now it’s time to ride off into the sunset!

Good. Crenshaw seemed decent at the start, but near the end, all I saw was someone that seemed like they were using congress to inside trade… pic.twitter.com/ab5T5ONUdP

So promising going in and he blew it. Got sucked into corruption like the rest of em.

It’s sad, but it happens.

Posters used memes to show how they truly felt about the ousted Crenshaw.

With President Donald Trump trying to get his agenda implemented, MAGA has no tolerance for RINOs. Now they’ll have one less to deal with.
