McConnell and Paul Ryan come out strongly against

Trump pandering to racist (by saying he didn't know anything about David Duke or his group). 1) took them a day to come out 2) they are just protecting the goose that lays golden eggs by saying 'Republicans don't exploit racism in the people'. Trump laid bare the Southern Strategy by not condemning the KKK. Took McConnell and Ryan and the rest of the GOP a day to realised the real threat was not attacking african americans well being but that Trump had pulled down the fiction that the GOP doesn't pander to racists. They speak out in this case so that they can be racist into the future.

I can't wait for the general where Trump moves to the left and the political narrative for 3 straight months is liberal. That should teach the Republican base that they have been horribly used in the last 30 years.
