Trump support is telling
Okay, so here it goes: I am going to assume there is a certain voter out there in Voterland who would label themselves mostly conservative, and who usually, but maybe not always, chooses the candidate with an “R” after their name. But, like an ever-lengthening list of well-respected conservative individuals and organizations, you have decided you cannot trust the mercurial, unstable Donald Trump.
Despite the more than obvious shortcomings Trump exhibits, Rep. McMorris Rodgers insists she will follow him into the dustbin of historical political anomalies. If she truly believes in the Donald, it calls into question her judgment. If she isn’t a true believer, she is part of Trump’s scam, and it calls into question her authenticity. She does not deserve to continue as our representative. Send a message: check the Pakootas box.
