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 DonaldĀ 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 do to
Sorry yes we do stop lieing
Yes we do you moron
Just another lying Senator ! Have you asked the voters Senator$#%&!@*?
Build the wall get rid of the illegals and democrats
Your a liar
Really, I think Mr. Cronyn is way out of touch.
Yes we do
The most important responsibility the President has is to protect the American citizens from all threats, both foreign and domestic. The wall is a major step in carrying out that promise. GO TRUMP!
John, you’d better actually talk to voters.
