In some of his harshest criticism of the president to date, Sen. John Cornyn on Monday said Donald Trump’s inconsistent rhetoric on the COVID-19 pandemic has stoked confusion, as the coronavirus continues its spread among high-ranking White House and GOP officials.
Cornyn, the former second-ranking Senate Republican, has himself shared misinformation about COVID-19, and defended and espoused Trump’s use of racist misnomers to blame the virus on China. “He tries to balance that with saying, ‘Well, you know, we got this.’ And clearly we don’t have this,” Cornyn said, according to the Chronicle. “I think the biggest mistake people make in public life is not telling the truth, particularly in something with as much public interest as here because you know the real story is going to come out.”
Cornyn, who also sits on that committee, may have been exposed to the virus when he attended hearings last week.
It is about time that you, republicans, express yourselves. Come out and tell the truth. Vote for Biden/Harris.
'A lesson to all of us.' Do you really believe that. All? Good luck with that.
Too little too late JohnCornyn. You’re going to sink with this infested ship.
Wow the smartest thing he’s said in a while
