“I frankly struggle to understand the legal theory of it.”
Then it’s probably a good idea to read it and talk to Senator Cruz, rather than just listening to Left-Wing ‘legal analysts’ on CNN.
One other thing, Senator. If you can’t understand this lawsuit enough to support, perhaps you’ll understand that its implications are FAR MORE than this election. For Texas (i.e., your ‘embarrassing’ state), this is basically a last attempt at holding the United States together - if this case goes south, then the Constitution is subservient to whoever is in power, and it’s very likely that Texas (along with the many co-signers here), will not want to be a part of that country.
In any case, I voted for him and I don’t regret it - he’s been great on Trump’s judges, will oppose Packing the Courts and Killing the Filibuster, and that’s basically all that I want out of a Senator. So, no regrets from this Texan (especially considering that many here were rightfully pissed at Cruz for his 2016 antics and it nearly got us Beto).
I am thinking that Cornyn should know better, however he is generally good. Maybe someone asked him a specific question for which he had no answer. We are fortunate here in that in Texas we know how to vote for defenders of the Constitution even if someone is rusty.
