Few Republicans appear eager to suggest a new era of bipartisan deal-making with a candidate widely seen by GOP voters as untrustworthy.

I thought it would take two or three of the Asspress’ finest imbeciles to come up with this. Just one they say? Must be the cutbacks.

“So AP now says it is not clear. Hmm. “
Yeah, that’s new for sure.
However, what’s NOT new is the GOPe pretending to support Trump for President and are now preparing to pretend they would oppose a President Hillary. Apparently, they’ll be “opposing” Hillary like they “opposed” Obama.

Not criminality or corruption or anything like that.
The Democrat Party is just one collective, corrupt crime syndicate...

“Block & resist, just like they’ve done the last 8 years.”
Right.
They think we have an extremely short memory and/or they think we’re stupid.
Either way it’s insulting.
