“The tactic of smearing a candidate by their endorsers is a lamestream media tactic, and I think it is bunk.”
Taken to its logical extreme, you wouldn’t blink, or have a single troubling thought, if Code Pink, MoveOn.org, George Soros, and BLM came out in support of Ted Cruz.
Your argument is weak, defensive, and just a bit petulant.
If Trump gets the nomination, he will inevitably have a wide variety of endorsers. And when someone grabs a bucket of those endorsers and says “see, Trump will never build that wall because of these endorsers who want a pathway to citizenship” then I will call that bunk, assuming Trump continues to hold the same positions.
And trust me, you’ll see that out there if Trump gets the nom. They’ll say “Hey, Trump fans, I told you so! Trump was just saying that stuff about the wall to get your primary vote, but he’s shifting away from that now — look at all the people who stand with Trump who aren’t for the wall. You guys are suckers!”
And as long as Trump is still about building that wall, I’ll know those endorsers are about bringing people on his team and not a lurch away from one of his principles.
Do you think it is a good tactic to spend your time disavowing endorsement when trying to win an election? Cruz needs to spend his time running against Trump, not Bush or Graham. It is down to the wire.
