The Republican establishment finally seems to have given up taking veiled jabs at their own nominee. Instead of supporting Hillary Clinton’s cause by refusing to endorse her opponent, they’re finally just supporting her outright.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, arguably the most important congressional Republican, made the jump in an interview this week, in which he blasted Donald Trump while heaping praise on Hillary Clinton.
Really, it was only a matter of time. While his comrade in the House, Paul Ryan, eventually endorsed Trump, he only did so after weeks of dramatic hand-wringing and public consideration. They may say that they are just taking time to learn about their party’s nominee, but their lack of support is de facto support for Trump’s opponent, Hillary Clinton.
Their refusal to support Trump publically says to the general public that not even the Republican party itself wants Trump. Of course, primary results say otherwise, but in politics, perception is everything.

Rotten Egg.
Friends, please STOP making this ‘about’ the personalities. This election MUST BE about the future VALUES we will pursue in America.
not everyone who thinks they are constitutional conservatives are, and not everyone who thinks they are moderates, populists, or libertarians are. It isn’t about the LABEL. So, STOP pointing fingers and arguing over shades of red or blue!
A constitutional conservative MUST respect the process, even if we don’t respect the candidate. The primary is over. It was properly conducted and the candidate is Trump.
That isn’t to say we ‘hold our nose’ and vote for the candidate just bc of the letter next to their name. It does mean that we put on our big boy underoos and accept when our person isn’t the choice…
What it means is that once the major parties’ nominees are selected the general election becomes a choice between those TWO.
A constitutional conservative recognizes that when the choice is between the two-Trump or Clinton, that it is not even a question of who could be the better POTUS, especially if the people around them is considered; Trump is bringing solid conservatives alongside.
I hope that people of principle will see they can actually help Trump if they will come alongside and offer their knowledge and wisdom. Help guide him to respect the values and principles of our Constitution.
McConnell traitor against American people and has dementia to boot if he thinks she’s intelligent.
