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:
Cornyn, you are wrong, and full of “it”!!#!
BS I do
I’m from Texas and sincerely hope he gets “primaried” by a much better candidate
A wall is needed more now than ever !! 5 presidents before Trump talked about the importance !!! Including obama !!
No, we want a Really Big, extremely Long Wall, with nice Gates that allow easy Passage to great People who are traveling between Countries Legally with mutual Respect, without Smuggling People or Contraband. The wall is to be a Symbol that this Country is different than Mexico in both it’s Values and Governing.
