John Cornyn: Steve Bannon should 'focus on Democrats instead of Republicans'

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Monday that he wishes Steve Bannon, former White House chief strategist and current chairman of Breitbart News, would focus on ousting Democrats instead of a group of incumbent Republican senators he is focusing on ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.

“I wish they would focus on Democrats instead of Republicans,” said Cornyn, the No. 2 Senate Republican, when asked by reporters about Bannon’s push to oust the likes of Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., and Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev.
