Senator John Cornyn is continuing his anti-Trump crusade after losing the Texas Senate primary to Ken Paxton earlier this year.
Republican Senators are refusing to come together to pass the SAVE America Act even though more than 70% of Americans back the voter ID bill.
Cornyn on Tuesday whined to reporters about the push to cancel August recess to pass the SAVE America Act.
Several GOP Senators said they would vote to cancel August recess over the SAVE America Act.
Senators Blackburn, Lee, Young, Moody, Scott and others are all in to cancel August recess to pass legislation to secure US elections ahead of the midterms.
However, RINO Cornyn spent Tuesday morning whining to reporters about the possibility of canceling August recess.
“I don’t understand the rationale. We’re over-promising and we’re not gonna be able to deliver. We don’t have the votes! We’re not gonna change the filibuster,” Cornyn said.
“Some how, the president’s convinced if he presses hard enough we will come around. That’s not likely to happen,” Cornyn said to CNN’s Manu Raju.
WATCH:
Cornyn also went after President Trump’s nomination for Attorney General, Todd Blanche.
“There is no “deal” on Blanche nom. They know what they have to do,” Cornyn said in a post on X.

Last month, John Cornyn said the SAVE America Act is dead.
“Not gonna happen, and every one (except the naive or misinformed) knows it,” Cornyn said.

President Trump has repeatedly called on the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act.
“Requirement for Voter I.D. to vote should be something that NO American should oppose. If you want to register to vote in the United States, you have to be a citizen in the United States,” the White House previously said in a statement.
