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:
Somebody make this man produce the paperwork to backup his statement. Other wise it’s just meaningless rhetoric.
Since when does the congress feel the need to do what the voters want
You are not speaking for me! If it will save one person from drugs the wall is worth the cost!
Senator John Cronyn you don’t know what you are talking about have you talk to Trump supporters . We wouldn’t be out campaigning for a wall if we didn’t want a wall . That wall was one of the biggest thing we have wanted for years . So don’t speak about the wall if don’t know . Yes Trump supporters want that wall the sooner the better.
We want a wall!!
EXCUSE ME MR. CORNYN, JUST WHO THE HELL YOU BEEN TALKING TO YOUR DEMOCRAT BUDDIES????
Vote him out!
I’m a Texan too . He doesn’t represent us, he should be a Democrat . I won’t vote for him again !!!
Sorry senator but you need a reality check. Trump voters do want a wall.
If he’s doesn’t know what he’s talking about, he should keep shut! I’m a Trump voter and I voted for the President because I liked the sound of his campaign promises including “build the wall” but especially “Drain the swamp”. RINO Senator Cornyn is a classic example of swamp that needs draining. He and the other RINOs aren’t going to be reelected next time!
