Forget #NeverTrump, Meet the #AlwaysTrump Candidates of 2016

These candidates couldn’t hug Trump closer if they were a cheap necktie from China.

Republican candidates on the GOP ticket have split into three camps when it comes to their nominee: the #NeverTrumps, the #SortaTrumps and—a somewhat newer group—the #AlwaysTrumps.

But not to be forgotten are the #AlwaysTrumps, the hell-yes glass breakers ready to wrap themselves in all of Donald Trump’s glory like Katy Perry wears the Stars and Stripes.

To understand their steadfast loyalty to the Trump train, look no further than Carlos Beruff, the Florida homebuilder running against Marco Rubio in the GOP Senate primary, who has been called “little Trump of Florida.”

“I’m happy to take Marco Rubio’s slot at the Republican National Convention,” Beruff said recently. “Because I’m not ashamed of Donald Trump as our nominee.”

Likewise for newly minted GOP Senate nominee Colorado, Darryl Glenn. Glenn declared to the crowd, “I proudly stand with Donald Trump.” The Cruz-endorsed Glenn also said the rest of the state’s GOP needs to get with the program.

“I’m taking it as a personal responsibility to deliver Colorado for Donald Trump,” Glenn said.

-------------------------------------------------

At the end of May, Rep. Darrell Issa penned an open letter in The Hill excoriating all the GOP bedwetters who hadn’t yet gotten behind the Republican voters’ pick.

“Memo to Bushes and Other GOP Hold Outs” he wrote. “Get on the Trump Train.”

Even some senators and House members with tough races ahead of them have made the calculation that they are better off helping Trump than going it alone.

Anything peddled by the far left Daily Beast has to be ignore as crap.

The writers at this radical rag have never met
a Republican in their life outside the big phony / lefty Bloomberg.
