Couldn’t pass up an opportunity to throw stones at a consistent, albeit occasionally flawed (just like every other candidate, constitutional conservative could you?
So, to apply your logic, Trump’s endorsement of McDaniel was for political expediency as well? Probably to establish some bona fides for his run for president, I’m sure. (I have no reason to believe either of those, by the way, and I wouldn’t suggest as much.)
I don’t recall any of the other candidates personally apologizing for things done by their campaign or firing a senior campaign staffer for stepping over the line...
No stones, just an observation.
I do know that TRUMP contributed all over the country to Republicans, as well as in NYC, giving to a few Democrats on the mutual social circuit. (Of course, next to no one runs for office in NYC, but Democrats, and after all Donald was in business there.)
