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 want a wall, have for years. Don’t speak for Republicans!!!!
Hey Moron, all Trump supporters want the wall, so think about retiring!
Oh YES I DO!!!
This idiot doesn’t know what he’s talking about!!!
BOY IS HE OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE VOTERS..???
BUILDING THE
“TRUMP WALL”
FACTS
1. Estimated cost
$ 21.6 billion.
2. This is 1/2 of one percent of the annual US government spending.
3. The $21.6 billion would be spread over a 42 month construction time frame. So actual spending would be $6.2 billion per year.
4. Spread over each US citizen it comes to a one time payment of $67.75 each.
5. Spread over each 2016 US taxpayer is $157.50. For one year only.
6. For starters the savings would immediately reduce spending on Homeland security, Federal corrections, criminal justice and judicial activities. A significant drop in unemployment rates and increased safety to our agents and citizens.
7. Long term, the wall WILL be paid for by MEXICO. Tariffs on imported Mexican products will have a minimal impact on their economy.
8. Mexican cooperation in taking out the cartels will further reduce their costs by using confiscated money from illegal drug and criminal activities. Also massive reductions in illegal schedule one drugs.
9. It’s a “WIN -WIN” for both countries.
10. Total long term cost to the United States. ZERO $$$
PURE ECONOMIC SENSE !!
Yes we do.
Yes we do
I too have withdrawn all my support for this treasonous bastard that has violated his oath of office to support and protect the Constitution Of the United States And it’s Laws. He has sold out the POTUS, All Republicans And Every Texan. Now he is against the BILL OF RIGHTS to overturn the Second Amendment and Claims Texans Land Owners Don’t want The wall! This Man Is a delusional idiot and should be RECALLED AND FIRED BY ALL TEXANS.
The$#%&!@*if we son!
