Its now official, Mike Lee has finally taken a drink from that infamous Kool-Aid.

"Drinking the Kool-Aid" implies that he's come to believe or accept something that's not true or that's toxic.

He's saying he's still a sceptic and hasn't been able to convince himself of something.

So it's something like the opposite.

Mike, what about Obama and Hillary? Now there are two scary individuals? Surely they scare you more than Trump? Or do they? Your comment is very telling about your true self, and it is quite different from what I thought you were.

The thing that scares me is a tea party candidate who sides with the gopE on ANYTHING.

I’ve never seen this before. A person wins the vote and the losers think they can call the shots.

If Trump “scares” him, then Lee just confirmed he’s part of the overwhelming problem of career-long RINO politicians in government whose job will be on notice once Trump takes office.

Trump does scare a lot of people who wonder what he'll do as president or whether he'll follow through with what he says. They may turn out to be right. Who knows? It would be a good idea not to jump all over anybody who confesses to doubts right now.

They’re all bought or blackmailed.

Ross Perot said “Surely we can find 535 honest men and women who will go to Washington to serve”. He was wrong.

But Mike Lee is supposed to be conservative and most all of Trump’s goals are among the most conservative ever.

What is the problem?

Mike Lee came out of the closet last year when he joined Schumer and Durbin in sponsoring The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act.

Disagreement makes the world go round. I hope I’m wrong about Trump. There’s a first time for everything!

It’s not complicated. He’s running against Hillary - that’s why I’m voting for him. No other reason - I expect him to not be Hillary, anything above that will be an unexpected bonus.

Canadian Cruz and Lee the Morman are connected at the hip. The only senator to really endorse him. I don’t know which one is crazier.

Ryan is an open borders globalist of the first degree. He’s also funded ObamaCare and anything else Obama wanted. Ryan is a skinny version of Boehner. Ryan is not a conservative.

I hope he hasn’t started taking orders from seat-mate Orrin Grant Hatch.

All conservatism is social conservatism. The GOP is a no-legged stool now.
