Even former Speaker Of The House Paul Ryan says he won’t go to the Republican National Convention if Trump is the nominee.
Every other Poll in the country shows Trump ahead by 20 points.
I would much rather see trump as the republican candidate because he will lose again. Americans will once again turn down his hate-filled candidacy.
Guess donny better step up insulting DiSantis (or DiSantos? they must be related) about his sexuality, his heritage, his friends and his looks. Have to throw relatives in there too.
