Cornyn predicts post-midterms will be ‘most miserable two years’ of Trump’s life
Cornyn said Trump’s demand for loyalty is driving away GOP critics and could leave Republicans facing a midterm disaster, with the House at risk.
- On Thursday, Senator John Cornyn told The New York Times that November midterm elections will be a "disaster" for Republicans, predicting Donald Trump will face "the most miserable two years of his life."
- Attributing his primary loss to voter disillusionment, Cornyn noted his defeat provides "a little more freedom, and certainly leverage" to push back against Trump's influence within the GOP.
- Responding to Trump's claim that Cornyn would "remain my friend for a long time to come," the senator delivered a sharp retort: "If that's the way friends treat you, you wonder about his enemies."
- Cornyn said Trump's requirement for "100 percent" loyalty is damaging party cohesion, criticizing the president's transactional approach to political relationships ahead of November's midterms.
- Republicans risk losing the House due to the president's miscalculation in alienating internal critics, Cornyn warned, while expressing his intent to make the next seven months as productive as possible.
