This is why Republicans usually nominate soft people who don’t know how to fight. Trump fighting makes people sooo nervous and then when a Romney type doesn’t fight everyone calls him weak. If you’re going to primary Trump you better come ready to fight because he and all those who support him will FIGHT. All that said, this wasn’t an attack. This was basically praise from Trump but also not pretending that he hasn’t heard the 3 names. Tim Scott may be next to get a jab (remember how much Trump has praised Scott in the past).
