    Trump Won't Support Ryan, McCain, Or Ayotte

    Well, I guess I was wrong and Trump really is going after Paul Ryan. Earlier today, he specifically refused to support Ryan by using almost the exact same words that Ryan used earlier before he endorsed Trump, saying, "I'm not quite there yet." This comes after Trump had words of praise for Ryan's primary challenger. This is the thanks that Ryan gets for actually supporting Trump. On the other hand, Ryan really has only himself to blame for playing footsie with Trump for a while before finally endorsing him. As Trump has shown time and time again, he only believes in dominance and, having achieved that position, he has no qualms about ridiculing those he has dominated. Just ask Chris Christie. Khizr Khan knows this, but apparently Republicans just can't see it. Trump also included John McCain and embattled Senator Kelly Ayotte in the group that he is not ready to endorse. As I keep on saying, the pressure is going to continue to grow on Republican leaders to withdraw their support from Trump and sabotaging fellow Republicans will only increase that pressure from both inside and outside the party.
