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:
It is tough to see someone who says hes from Texas not understand that illegal immigration is over running our state and our country. Walls work along with other options. I guess you could put him in the Rino category. Build the wall
Build the wall.. JOHN Cornyn is deep state!
Totally disagree . Build the wall! Stand united with the President. We need a secure boarder and a wall is necessary. Voters put POTUS in for this reason.
John Cornyn needs to be primaried for 2020. He’s always been a weak senator.
I VOTES FOR TRUMP AND I WANT THE WALL
Again Cornyn disappoints. We want a WALL. Get on board Cornyn the people said what they want, a wall..

I hesitated to vote for Cornyn because I thought he might be a RINO. We want a wall. I am your constituant. Build the wall.
Speak for yourself.We need a wall.Do you hear me We want a wall.
Excuse me…..I live in Texas and everyone here wants the wall! Why don’t you go to the border and see what’s really going on! I dare you to check out what’s going on at the border!
