Chewing on a shit sandwich?
US Senate Republican Minority Leader (stepping Down) has issued a endorsement for Donald Trump’s Republican Presidential run…
Let’s get REAL….
Mitch McCoinnell does personally NOT LIKE or CARE much about Donald J. Trump….
But?
McConnell HAS ALWAYS been a HARDCORE Republican….
He’ll do anything for the Party as he has ALWAYS done in the Senate….
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Wednesday endorsed former President Trump’s bid for the White House, a turnaround in the icy relationship between two of the most prominent Republicans in the country.
McConnell unveiled the endorsement only after news broke that former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R), Trump’s final remaining opponent, was dropping out of the race following Trump’s big wins on Super Tuesday.
“It is abundantly clear that former President Trump has earned the requisite support of Republican voters to be our nominee for President of the United States. It should come as no surprise that as nominee, he will have my support,” McConnell said.
“During his Presidency, we worked together to accomplish great things for the American people including tax reform that supercharged our economy and a generational change of our federal judiciary – most importantly, the Supreme Court. I look forward to the opportunity of switching from playing defense against the terrible policies the Biden administration has pursued to a sustained offense geared towards making a real difference in improving the lives of the American people.”
The move comes after back-channel talks in recent weeks between the top lieutenants for the two GOP behemoths — Chris LaCivita, Trump’s campaign manager; and Josh Holmes, McConnell’s longtime top political aide….
…
The sudden détente marks the culmination of what has been almost a decade-long up-and-down relationship between the two GOP figures, which has been colored by bad blood in recent years….
…
But although McConnell’s endorsement has been secured, a few Senate Republicans have shown little inclination to follow suit. Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) both endorsed Haley ahead of Super Tuesday.
Sen. Todd Young (R-Ind.), who is not up for reelection until 2028, has also made clear he has no plans to back the ex-president….
