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:
B******t I want a fluffy footer with a run from gulf of Mexico to Pacific I want gun towers overlapping patrols of Marines with shoot to kill orders..
Yes we do.
The hell we don’t!
He obviously has not been paying attention.
Me. Cronyn, you obviously are out of touch with what the American citizens want! Don’t run for any political office, and save yourself from the embarrassment on loosing horribly!!!!
Hey john, yes we do. If you don’t understand the need for it perhaps it’s time for you to retire. People are fed up with this kind of c**p, don’t you realize that yet?
Yes we do!
Yep, and a little no. I want politicians to stop telling Border Patrol how to do their jobs. Where they recommend a wall, build it. Where they want only a fence build, it too. If they want it to secure the border, damn it, give it too them…period.
Oh but they way, we both k ow nothing built will work if we fail to enact mandatory e-verify, and enact stiff criminal penalties for anyone perverting immigration law, either they be an employer, politician, or judge.
Sounds like Texas is going to have a new Governor. He should have listened to his people.
Build the Wall!!
