Texas Loser John Cornyn Tries to Insult Scott Presler and, Yeah, THAT Didn't Go Well for Him
Our tagline here at Twitchy is to 'own the libs.' When it comes to
politicians, that usually means they have a D after their name, and
there is no shortage of their horrible takes on X that we can pounce on
(if you will forgive the expression).
Unfortunately, there are far too many politicians with an R after
their name who are standing in the way of conservative policies to make
America great again. We won't go so far as to call them leftists, in
most cases, but they are definitely lib-adjacent.
But this year, many of those RINOs
are finding out that conservative -- and even normie -- America has had
enough of them. Bill Cassidy? Out. Dan Crenshaw? Out. Thomas Massie
(who isn't so much a RINO as he is someone who has just gone batpoop
insane)? Out.
While
Cornyn is a reliable Republican vote on the easy issues, his support of
red flag laws for gun ownership, along with lax border enforcement and
immigration policies, ensured his recent landslide loss to state
Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Republican primary. Not to mention
his obstruction of the SAVE America Act, easily the most important piece
of legislation before the current Senate.
Thankfully, in an
exchange with GOP voter registration paragon Scott Presler on X last
night, Cornyn reminded every Texas voter why they made the correct
choice with Paxton to face off against certified Democrat weirdo James Talarico in November.
It
all began innocently enough, with Presler noting a polite conversation
he had with Cornyn about the SAVE Act in a chance encounter at the
airport.
Just had a conversation with Senator John Cornyn at the airport.
I was very gracious & asked him to pass the SAVE America Act.
Fair enough. Eighty percent of Americans support voter ID
requirements in our elections. And, as anyone who has ever had a
conversation with Presler can attest, we know he was honest about being
gracious to the outgoing Senator.
But what followed from Cornyn was simply bizarre in its snide and childish tone.
There
is no American who works harder to help Republicans win elections. And
Presler does it the old-fashioned way, with shoe leather and a
shoestring budget. He's hardly getting rich off his efforts.
Whew. Talk about your sore losers. After Cornyn's mean-spirited attempt to insult him, Presler dropped the gloves, BIG TIME.
Dear Senator Cornyn,
I approached you respectfully at the airport, extending my hand & introducing myself.
We were at the ticket gate with literally dozens of witnesses — passengers inches away.
Despite a quib reply back from you, I kept things professional & focused on the… https://t.co/acjk2UDQ5n
While
I respect that you say you want to ensure wins this November, I speak
for millions when I say that voters will be more likely to vote upon the
passage of the SAVE America Act.
Voters see what’s happening in
California & wonder why our Senate isn’t doing everything in its
power to secure our elections.
Did you know that former
Congresswoman Michelle Steel (R-CA) lost by 653 votes in 2024? Did you
know that former Congressman John Duarte (R-CA) lost by 187 votes?
I have no doubt that the SAVE America Act would have prevented these losses.
Why
are we normalizing an expectation for California to count votes for
weeks after Election Day — like Spencer Pratt’s election.
In North
Carolina, the State Board of Elections found 34,000 dead voters on the
voter rolls — fact-check me. (CC: Senator Tillis)
How can
Americans have confidence in our elections & how are Americans going
to be inspired to vote if you don’t legislate as the majority?
Last
— & I mean this with the utmost of respect — for the $150 million
that was spent on the Texas Senate primary/runoff, we could have built
massive voter registration/get out the vote operations in every single
swing state.
While I understand it might be difficult to
contemplate an American citizen doing this work because it’s the right
thing to do, I’m proud to say that I don’t take PAC $ — not even from my
own organization.
I can’t be bought, which frustrates the political establishment.
My
one singular mission is doing right by the American people and
delivering legislative wins that the popular vote delivered in 2024.
I’m
on the way to the Texas GOP Convention to help ensure all of our
Republican candidates win this November — I hope you’ll do the same.
I hope you’ll do the right thing & encourage your colleagues to pass the SAVE America Act — let’s win big.
That's called killing him with kindness. Even after Cornyn's snide
remark, Presler remained focused on the issues -- the ONE issue.
Protecting our elections.
But everyone knows what he really did. He exposed Cornyny for the petty, fake conservative he is.
Sadly,
Presler's plea to Cornyn will go unheeded, as the soon-to-be EX-Senator
has already declared that he won't help Paxton defeat Talarico in the
fall.
Other people were, to say the least, less polite than Presler.
I
find it odd that this guy considers it a great idea to demonstrate
conclusively that the people who rejected him conclusively were
absolutely right https://t.co/HR4hbCz1YN
Cornyn
was so petty with his post, it would not surprise us if he started
actively opposing the legislation during his remaining days in the
Senate.
Scott
spends more time registering and talking to GOP voters than anyone I
know. It’s how he knows that they are furious over the failure to pass
the Save Act, a fury I have also encountered. Maybe try listening to him
instead of insulting him. https://t.co/zsUNr1XfQW
.@ScottPresler drove around the country explaining why voting was important and helping people get registered. What did @JohnCornyn do? No seriously, I live in Texas, I can't name one thing he accomplished. You're a small, small man, Senator. pic.twitter.com/96dICZT2R7
