Texas Senator John Cornyn might be a Republican from a deep-red state, but he doesn’t seem to know much about the average Trump supporter.
Trump was popular for several reasons: He promised to get tough on illegal immigration, he promised to restore law and order to the United States, and he promised to build the wall.
The wall, in particular, might be Donald Trump’s most popular policy. Trump certainly seemed to think so. While on the campaign trail, Trump confessed that he would circle back to “the wall” whenever his speeches lingered off-topic for too long.
But Senator Cornyn doesn’t seem to think the wall is that important. In fact, he thinks that the people of Texas — who voted overwhelmingly for Trump — don’t want a wall at all.
It’s an odd statement coming from a representative of the nation’s largest border state.
Watch him argue that Trump supporters don’t actually want a wall on the next page:
Who are you to speak for me I want the wall and yes I voted for him don’t you ever speak for me or trump voters
Trump voters want a wall, that’s one of the reason we elected him. This senator is dumber than a door nail.
johnny boy, you don’t have a clue…what ya gonna do? When you’re not in DC too? VOTE OUT CORNYN!!
cornyn you have been in washington too long
What I do know is…..he is on the TRAITORS LIST !!!!
He does not speak for me and he does not know what we want because he don’t care what we want

Trump voters WANT a wall
Shows how out of touch establishment Republicans are. We have a cure for that in 2018! Keep Ted Cruz, get rid of most others running. Two down, many more to go!
I want a wall.
