Cornyn on Democrats’ Tesla Attacks: ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’
[Democrats] are unteachable, and certainly they didn't learn anything from the election on November 5th, when their party… was rejected by the American people.
I would prefer that they would engage constructively and try to work together with us to try to solve some of these problems, rather than just lose their mind and destroy an inanimate object like a Tesla.
WASHINGTON – Today on Fox News’ The Faulkner Focus, U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) slammed Democrats for resorting to attacking Tesla cars and dealerships across the country because they refuse to accept that President Trump was delivered a mandate on November 5th to get our economy back on track and cut government spending with the help of the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk. Excerpts of Sen. Cornyn’s remarks are below, and video can be found here.
On the Destruction of Tesla Vehicles:
“It is Trump derangement syndrome.”
“I’m glad to hear the Attorney General say that this will not be accepted and that they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Maybe that will stop this once they see the full weight of prosecution come down on them.”
“What DOGE is doing, what Elon Musk is doing is demonstrating some of the most egregious examples of wasteful spending.”
“I’m actually excited about the opportunities that this presents for us to do something about something we should have done a long time ago.”
On Comments from Democrats like Failed Candidate Tim Walz:
“Well, you can see now why [Tim Walz] lost the election, if that’s the best he has to offer.”
“They are unteachable, and certainly they didn’t learn anything from the election on November 5th, when their party and their platform was rejected by the American people.”
“I would prefer that they would engage constructively and try to work together with us to try to solve some of these problems, rather than just lose their mind and destroy an inanimate object like a Tesla vehicle.”
