Tattoo's are nasty, tacky, ugly, sinful, unprofessional.

Cornyn the draft dodger said that?

MJ Hegar is 1000 times the patriot that loser Cornyn could ever hope to be. Texas should get wise and broom Cornyn in favor of a badass woman who isn’t a selfish, corrupt POS

That was a down and dirty attack. Nowadays all youths have tattoos. I am Republican and I think it was pitiful.

Does Trump have tattoos that cover his bone spurs ?

Typical hateful, classless Republicans making terrible comments.

Good thing the GOP super PAC doesn't represent how most conservatives think.

CadetBoneSpurs cannot relate nor can John Mussolini Cornyn😒 VoteOutEveryRepublican TurnTexasBlue

Her tattoos are radical in a good way.

Tattoos are beautiful.
