Another favorite was Paul Ryan, when asked the day after the debates on what he thought about them... his response, I didnt see the debate. 4 reel, cuz? The first debate between the party's nominees and he didnt see it? |
Silence is all the have for the most part. They messed up by letting it get this far and they know it. From early on in the nomination process they should have seen the support the likes of Carson, Cruz and Trump were getting and said "uh oh, we need to do something". What they needed to do was rally around moderate that wasn't named Bush (Kasich).
They didn't and they also know they can't publicly endorse a candidate from another party or they are dead in the future as the party will completely splinter at that point. Like the reform/PC split in Canada they will never have a chance of gaining power (and it's all about gaining power...not doing the right thing or doing good).
Spineless? perhaps. but most likely looking out for #1 moving forward. For a normal voting populace the silence should be deafening but the US populace is in general woefully uninformed. I will give credit to Romney who sometime in the last 4 years seemed to maybe grow a spine as he's the only one that has consistently spoke out against Trump.
We already knew Ryan was spineless when he let them browbeat him into becoming speaker.
