p*******s 发帖数: 157 | 1 Bad news for those few who imagined Donald Trump would quietly accept the
GOP handing the party's nomination to someone else and support a non-Trump
candidate.
The Republican front-runner told CNN's Anderson Cooper he no longer promises
to support whoever ends up being the Republican nominee during a town hall
in Milwaukee Tuesday.
"Do you continue to pledge to support whoever the Republican nominee is?"
Cooper asked.
"No, I don't anymore," Trump replied.
Back in September the mercurial mogul signed a pledge promising to to back
the eventual Republican nominee, even if the unthinkable happened and that
nominee was someone he doesn't see in the mirror every morning.
At the time Trump said, "I have no intention of changing my mind," and "I
see no circumstances under which I would tear up that pledge."
That position has now, um, evolved and Trump's new view is that his support
is conditional on who ends up being the eventual nominee.
"I'll see who it is," Trump said. "I'm not looking to hurt anybody. I love
the Republican party."
Trump explained he was rescinding his vow because he feels he has been "
treated very unfairly" by "the RNC, the Republican party, the establishment."
The billionaire businessman said a lot of people would be upset if he was
deprived of the nomination.
"When somebody goes in and wins the election and gets less delegates than
the guy that lost, I don't think that's right," he added.
As for Ted Cruz and other Republican candidates waffling on their support of
him he if were to become the Republican standard bearer, Trump says he
could care less.
"He doesn't have to support me," Trump said of Cruz. "I have many many more
delegates than him."
"Look I beat these people badly," Trump said. "I don't want to make people
uncomfortable. I don't need their support." |
