After Orlando, Republican Party Unity Behind Trump Grows More Elusive

House Speaker Paul Ryan told a room of Republican donors and elites in Park City, Utah last weekend that he endorsed Donald Trump to keep the Republican Party together.

That explanation implied that if the highest ranking Republican didn't support the top of the ticket and went against the legitimate winner of the primary electoral process that the Republican Party would limp forward as a divided party with no chance of electoral success. The Speaker suggested that he put party above personal preference for the sake of unity.

Just days later, party unity appears even more fragile.

Since wrapping up the GOP nomination, Trump has done little to ease the concerns of skeptical Republicans. He has ignored calls to change his tone, refocus his message on policy and ignore personal slights. Instead, he has doubled down on a controversial proposal to ban on Muslims entering the U.S., attacked the heritage of a federal judge and publicly insulted party leaders.

uh, it’s not about the Republican Party. It’s about the voters who will grand slam Trump home.

Which would be policy. Has Leigh Ann listened to his NH speech?

It’s not just that every word of this article is a lie. Even the commas and periods are lies.

The mediots wants us to believe that it is the voters that are rejecting Trump.

That is a lie.

It is the R politicians - and the voters are starting to reject them.

It’s time for the Trump campaign to jerk that wormy-looking, mealy mouthed piece of **** up by his short hairs. Paul Ryan is making many of us miss Boehner.

Here is a quote from the “American citizen” Muslim as he was killing:

“He said that the reason why he was doing this was he wanted America to stop bombing his country,” Carter said.

Read it you scum Ryan and McConnell.
