Quote of the Day from Political Wire

Quote of the Day

“Other than destroying every instrument of democracy in his own country, having opposition people killed, dismembering neighbors through military force and being the benefactor of the butcher of Damascus, he’s a good guy. This calculation by Trump unnerves me to my core.”
— Sen. Lindsey Graham, quoted by Politico, on Donald Trump’s embrace of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

  1. Sen. Graham is another Republican leader who endorsed Trump for president.
    All of those Republican leaders have disavowed what Trump has said (at one time or another) but will not rescind their endorsements.
    Now, Ryan and other Republican leaders won't even talk about what Trump said.
    Trump himself has refused to talk about certain issues, like the birther issue. He won't say, Obama is an American citizen and a legitimate president.
    Those who disagree with what Trump says, but still endorse him are nothing but hypocrites and should not be listened to. Sorry Sen. Graham, your criticism of Trump is hollow.
    Birthers are racists.

  2. Too true Luke. But it is still striking when GOP leaders call out their presidential candidate. I like publicizing this to help more moderate Republicans feel comfortable with abandoning Trump for Clinton.
