WASHINGTON — Texas Sen. John Cornyn has joined the anyone-but-Trump caucus, becoming one of the most prominent Republican leaders to shun the former president’s 2024 comeback bid.
“We need to come up with an alternative,” he said Thursday. “I think President Trump’s time has passed him by and what’s the most important thing to me is we have a candidate who can actually win.”
Cornyn made the comment in a call with Texas reporters, when asked by The Dallas Morning News whether Trump’s performance on a prime time CNN town hall last week gave him pause about his efforts to return to the White House.
