Trump flip-flops even on candidate endorsements

Posted by | August 6, 2016 12:37 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


Somehow he got the message that not endorsing the House Speaker was a bad idea. Now it’s news story that Trump actually endorses members of his own party.

At a campaign event in Green Bay, Wisconsin on Friday, Donald Trump endorsed the reelections of Speaker Paul Ryan and Senator John McCain less than a week after he’d refused to do so. In the same appearance, Trump endorsed Senator Kelly Ayotte, with who he’s feuded in the past.

According to ABC News, Trump told the crowd:

“We all have disagreements, but we disagree as friends and never stop working toward victory. And very importantly toward real change. So in our shared mission to make America great again, I support and endorse our speaker of the house Paul Ryan.”

Trump had to  read this, because it contained words and phrasing unknown to his native tongue.

    An act of desperation.
    At this point, Trump needs Ryan far more than Ryan needs Trump.

    Sometimes an economy of words is such a beautiful thing. https://www.facebook.com/TheOther98/videos/1408259522518355/

      There was room for a good eff word in that sentence if you ask me. But I like to be an a$$ sometimes, maybe she doesn’t have that in her.

    DB couldn’t even say the words without reading it word for word off a piece of paper and not one of the local republicans showed up at this great speech!!! It was in Wisconsin, Ryan was home and could of easily made it but he had to pick up dry cleaning.

      and he has the audacity to get pissy about someone reading a teleprompter when he does it. and this “statement” that he read, contained on a few words, and he couldn’t memorize it. well, i would say if he did memorize it, he’d go off script again so in order for him to say exactly what his handlers told him to say, he had to stick to a piece of paper.

        It is more entertaining when he goes off the cuff.

    since they are not his words, and we all know these words ARE NOT a part of his vocabulary, i call bullshit.

      I say the video on cnn when he made that speech,or whatever you call it.It was so beyond obvious that he was reading it from a paper,and it wasnt his words.They are coaching him and telling him what to do.Give him 24 hours and he will be his old obnoxious self again.He cant help himself,hes too egotistical and vain!

        Not to mention a narcissist and sociopath.

    President Obama can make a 2 hr speech without reading from a script. 1 piece of paper and 3 sentences, wow, what a dumbass.

    There is no way this was trump talking. He was reading words he was told he had to read to try and undo some of the damage that has been done in the last week or so. I kind of expected him to throw away the script part way through and just wing it. It sounded stilted, forced, and phony.
