In an interview during the Texas Tribune’s virtual festival, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) said that should Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) leave his role as the Republican leader in Congress’ upper chamber, Cornyn would want to take his place.
“It’s been my honor to work with Sen. McConnell, who’s been in the Senate a lot longer than I have,” said Cornyn when asked about the possibility of a future majority or minority leader from Texas.

“But should he decide to step down and no longer serve as leader, I’ve made it no secret that I would like to succeed him,” said Cornyn. “If there’s an opportunity to do that, I would like to do that.”

Cornyn said that during his three terms in the Senate so far, he’s “learned a lot” and “developed good relationships” with Republicans and Democrats alike.
“I think that’s based on mutual trust in a place where trust is in short supply. People know me,” said Cornyn.

NO
Forget that!!!! Rand Paul Or Ted Cruz!!!
Great another rino. What else is new for the republicant party
Cornyn/Kyl visions dance in my mind. Yeah we know ya alright. Retire already.
RINOs in foot tall hats and chaps.. let a new breed ride herd awhile. A firebrand, not a creampuff.
Raving Dildo Alert!
Whereas I want Cronyn primaried and thrown out on his azz.
Yes we do and if the people have their way, you will NEVER be the Senate majority leader and Kevin McCarthy will NEVER be the Speaker of the House. There are proven patriots already within those ranks that won’t betray the people just to appease the deep state criminals.
Right we know the Rino very well.
Cornyn is just another rino. He is an embarrassment to Texas.
No. You sir are not a fighter. You are a Swamp Creature.
No Senator who voted to certify Biden and voter fraud deserve it.
It was also a tradition to have fair and honest elections, but since that's been thrown out the window by both parties, that tradition can be put to bed too.
We got Bob Dole, an honorable man but a total loser as a presidential nominee because it was “his turn”
If the Texas Democrats had run anyone other than the crazy tattooed MJ, Cornyn would have lost.
And we got John McShame, not an honorable man, along with being a traitor because it was "his turn."
Yes...And souls in Hell want ice water...
Dumb and dumber come to mind
LMAO! Yes that’s what we want in the middle of our death grip fight against Marxism, another RINO leading our side.
Mygawd what’s WRONG with these tone deaf ROCKS, as in “dumb as a box of..”?? They are all gathered into a neat box, as if someone is collecting them, maybe dems. are actually voting for them, just so they can look at the collection and laugh. Somehow, some way these rocks are important to someone, because they certainly are thrown into any kind of progress Conservatives make.
Cornyn in this case does not need Texan’s support to ascend to great power, which is unfortunate for America.
“System Loyalty”, not MAGA, was the 2020 mission of the US Senate Republicans. Otherwise, the inept weasel Cornyn would in no way be considered, while America is under siege.
We know WHY this is true. We just can’t prove how it is true.
YET.
