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:
Delusional, and he ain’t alone!!!!!!
I do and I voted for Trump !
I guess we need to vote him out of office. He has no idea what the people want! The wall is at the top of my list!
Who is this idiot that thinks he knows my mind ???.
Wrong Senator, we DO want the wall, maybe it’s you we need to vote out of Texas
Yea we do!
We need the wall
Cornyn better get with the Trump train or he will be replaced, it is all about money as far as Cornyn is concerned
You do not speak for me J. Cornyn
Are you kidding me! That is one of the reasons we voted for Trump. To get a wall built that has been promised for over a quarter of century.
