Often out of Pure Petulanc yeah. But he also lashes out at people to send a message to other people, do not cross me. That is a thing that can work if youre six months out and trying to get people in line. But 30 days out . And if youre on the rise . Not if youre flailing. 30 days out, all hes doing is making more enemies, all hes doing is sending the message of disarray. I totally agree, and not getting back the republicans you were talking about. And another thing people are still talking about, on this very topic, is House Speaker paul ryans telling House Republicans yesterday that they should feel free to flee from donald trump, if that is whats necessary to save their skins and thereby help their party retain its majority in the lower chamber.
