A Republican Gives His Word

Not long ago, I watched on TV as the Republican candidates promised to support the eventual nominee of their party. Now their party has settled on Donald Trump as the nominee, and several losing contenders have said they won't keep their word after all, among them Jeb! (Bush). Their reason is that Trump is a sociopathic idiot who can't be trusted with the nuclear codes. But that was obvious months ago when they all pledged to support him.

I suppose it is a good thing that certain Republicans leaders are willing to break their word and dishonor themselves and their families in order to protect the whole damned world from a goon. They should do that. They owe it to all of us. It's the other ones (the party chair, Rinse Prenis, for example) we have to wonder about. To Rinse, party loyalty is more important than the possible extinction of all life on this planet. That's almost creepy.
