Out-of-town pool report #10 - Trump on ‘great’ Paxton and Cornyn

Trump says both Paxton and Cornyn are ‘great’

“We have a great attorney general, Ken Paxton… we have a great senator, John Cornyn.”

Says they’re in “a little bit of a race. Going to be an interesting one, right? They're both great people, too. Thank you both very much. We appreciate it.”

A few other moments:

On third term:

“Should we do one more?… Well we’re entitled to it, because they cheated like hell in the second one, we would actually be entitled.”

On Venezuela:

"For the benefit of both our nations we're going to refine their oil right here in America and right here in Texas and then export it to all over the world. We're going to keep some for ourselves, we're going to give some to them and they're going to make more money than they've ever made before."

Brings Dennis Quaid up on stage. “I love Corpus Christi and I love Donald Trump,” says Quaid.

Big cheer when Trump asked crowd if they liked SOTU. Loud jeering and booing when he mentioned Rep. Ilhan Omar and her ‘bulging eyes’.

Worth noting there were also two signs saying ‘American Energy Dominance’ in front of POTUS’s podium.

Still talking
