Not sure if you’re just arguing semantics here, but just for clarification in case you, or anyone else, is unsure why the other person might have said “accused felon”, it is because Paxton was indicted for felony securities fraud back in 2015. He has used his political office to delay the trial since then, and has yet to be tried. 8 years and counting since the indictment without a trial. Hence, “accused felon”.
