Interesting report, if true…

As criticism mounted against Donald Trump Monday for his treatment of an American Muslim couple whose son died in the Iraq war, his campaign sent an appeal to Republicans in Congress to back him up, according to media reports. No one responded.

That would explain why he called in the wingnut hard core.

Could it be that the condemnation of Trump’s statements but not Trump himself is actually the GOP’s horribly inept attempt at letting Trump twist in the wind?

Mind you, I’m not giving Republicans the benefit of the doubt by any stretch - but these aren’t world-class political strategists we’re talking about here.
