Bob Dole: 'I'm a Trumper' but 'I'm sort of Trumped out'
The Hill ^ | 07/22/2021 | Mychael Schnell

Posted on 07/22/2021 9:44:45 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former Republican Sen. Bob Dole (Kan.) told USA Today in an interview that “I’m a Trumper,” before adding later that “I’m sort of Trumped out, though.”

Dole, the former Senate majority leader and Republican candidate for president in 1996, was one of the few individuals from the GOP establishment to endorse Trump in 2016, and was the only former presidential nominee to go to the convention that nominated him.

While he said he is still a “Trumper,” he did break from the former president on the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, telling USA Today “he lost the election.”

I wonder if he did question the election results, the media would not bother talking to him. Believe he and Liddy were on CBS Sunday a while back.

Dole hasn’t really demonstrated grasping Conservatism any
better than the Bush family has.

I have a very hard time believing he has ever supported
Trump.

He turns 98 this year and he’s battling Stage 4 lung cancer. This is pure evil on the part of the disgusting Stalinazi rag USSR Today trying to manipulate a dying man. May they rot in hell.

Poor old Bob isn’t even likely to see the outcome of this.

MAGA has been thrown into the Chinese tree shredder.

Bob will be OK for the time he has left. Most Americans will be less fortunate.

That’s Bob Dole’s peanut butter!

Apparently the “greatest” generation is now too tired to fight communism.

I had forgotten about him. Didn’t even realize he’s still alive. May he live past 100.

Well... looks like I owe Dole an apology.

Many people I know are “trumped out” solely because of the constant, unified, shrieking deep-state MSM polemics against him.

They still haven’t totally accepted the utter corruption of US corporate media, so they think something, somewhere is wrong.

For many its like listening to the screaming of children - they have stopped thinking rationally about it, and just want it to stop.
