Sen. John Cornyn was not consoled when President Trump professed on social media that the senior Republican from Texas would “remain my friend for a long time to come” after the president had enthusiastically endorsed the man who defeated Mr. Cornyn, ending his Senate career, the New York Times reports.
Said Cornyn: “If that’s the way friends treat you, you wonder about his enemies.”
He added: “It’s going to make things harder, certainly more expensive in Texas, and make it harder around the country. I don’t say that with any sort of desire for vengeance; I just think that’s the way it’s going to be. He’s going to have the most miserable two years of his life in the last two years of his term, I think, because I think November is going to be a disaster.”
