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:
Yes we do
No he doesn’t know us at all
A very basic sovereignty issue has become political football
Trump has been VERY good with his political judgement thus far. I think he is maybe heading toward true greatness.
He understands the importance of the wall.
Yes we do you pompous$#%&!@*
Yes we do!!!
Evidently he hasn’t talked to many Republicans!
Build that WALL!
Says who. We want a wall now!!!
This ostrich has had his head hidden, I won’t say where, but he is completely out of touch.
Yeah wight,sure they do liars,build that wall and p**s off all the illegals
Liar
