“Krispy Kreme, the 0bama hugger, is as Establishment as it gets. His endorsement shows that Trump isn’t who he wants you to think he is. he’s just another Establishment RINO.”

No, it just means he knows the others left are losers.

Cruz is the one playing charades. The most conservative Christian candidate ever lies and plays dirty politics. He now pretends to be for deporting illegals, yet in the beginning of the campaign he was deafeningly silent in illegal immigration and even went so far as to condescendingly say ‘The American people don’t want to have that conversation’ about the illegals here. Now that he’s seen Trump’s position is popular, he’s copied it.

I wholeheartedly vote for Sessions. My only concern is he is 69.

It’s pretty obvious why Christie endorsed Trump. More interesting is why Trump sought out Christie’s endorsement.

Christie, with no appeal outside the tri state area, isn’t a good VP pick. He’s soft on guns so SCOTUS is out. But Trump doesn’t need to give him anything. Hinting at the possibility of a cabinet post would have done it.

What Christie brings is a break in the dam against Trump endorsements from major mainstream GOP pols. Notice that the endorsementss are now rolling in. That’s what Trump got in the deal, and it’s plenty.

Bull. There are always things that candidates have in common.

Having RINO Christie for AG would be kinda scary...

True, Christie may not offer Trump much, but I not sure that Christie knows that. I bet he’s clinging to the hope that there is a chance, even if only a small one, of getting picked....lol

Not necessarily...I’m sure they could cover it up somehow...or else Christie could magically convert to being pro-guns and then everyone would be happy.
