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
Wall needed. I wish we could get a wall in Congress to keep the crooks and liars out
bigger the better.
A minefield would be cheaper and easier.
Doesn’t know a thing about Trump supporters. We need a wall!
Yes we do.
HE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT ALL 62 MILLION OF WE DEPLORABLES WHO VOTED FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP DEFINITELY WANT THE WALL BUILT, THE SOONER THE BETTER. I’M NOT EVEN SURE THIS GUY IS A REPUBLICAN
Sen Cornyn we the Trump voters do want the wall and we want it soon.
Yeah we do
<~~~~This Trump Voter wants a Wall.
