I use the below layout to achieve a view with image on the right end of a constraint layout, and a text to the left of the image:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="@+id/parentPanel"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image"
android:layout_width="64dp"
android:layout_height="64dp"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
android:background="#ff0000"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/txt"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing
and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's
standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took
a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toLeftOf="@+id/image"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="20sp"/>
</android.support.
constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I have attached the screenshot of the UI that has been obtained from above XML. The text is being clipped off on the left, when text is too long.

The dependency that is being used in build.gradle is:
compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.1'
The problem was with your fixed width and height on your imageView (android:layout_width="64dp"
and android:layout_height="64dp"
).
You can easily constraint you imageView using guidelines to give it size that relative to your screen.
All you need to do is fix your constraint :
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/frameLayout2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".Fragments.MenusDesign.ExpandableCategoriesMenu.ExpandableCategoriesMenu">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image"
android:layout_width="64dp"
android:layout_height="64dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:background="#ff0000"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/txt"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:text="Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing
and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's
standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took
a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="20sp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@+id/image"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.0"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
