Rick Perry Is the First to Bail
With one last feeble slap at his nemesis Donald Trump, Rick Perry is the first Republican candidate to bail out.
That is why today I am suspending my campaign for the presidency of the United States,” he said, adding that he has “no regrets” about his run.
He also took what appeared to be a veiled swipe at GOP frontrunner Donald Trump. “Demeaning people of Hispanic heritage is not just ignorant, it betrays the example of Christ,” he said.
Now there are only 16 GOP candidates left, all of whom claim to have heard the word of God telling them to run for president. But then, Rick Perry also heard that disembodied voice, and now look at him.
