Former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) was careful with his comments on the opening night of the Republican National Convention.
When asked for his thoughts on Melania Trump’s plagiarized remarks, Santorum added yet another vague position to the collective GOP response. “Obviously disappointed in what seems to be a little problem there, but overall I think she did a good job,” he told TPM.
What about the campaign trail so far, from the number of GOP lawmakers who decided to miss the convention to Monday’s stymied roll call vote? Once again, Santorum was cagey about his response to a convention opening night which had more than its share of bizarre moments.
“It’s hard for me to believe we’re living with the possibility of a Hillary Clinton presidency,” he said. “That worries me more than a Donald Trump convention.”
Santorum… Santorum… I know this name.
Was he Ralph in Happy Days?
Did Scott Baio get him on the air?
Santorum is a slimey, has been, wuss loser. Who the hell cares what he thinks. Waste of site space.
Ricky, the Drumpfian follies isn’t at all worrisome. They don’t give your idiot leader the nuclear launch codes just because he managed to find Cleveland without drowning in Lake Erie. He can burn the convention site to ashes with his Drumpfster fire…that’s gonna happen anyway. Him being POTUS? Not gonna happen.
Absolutely—a Clinton Presidency is a nightmare, but a Trump convention is such a pleasant, wholesome affair that Republicans have now disabled the live chat window on the convention Youtube page after it got overrun by anti-Semitic Trump supporters.
As former Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle gave a speech promoting inroads that Republicans have made with Jewish voters, as well as ripping the Democrats for allegedly being more hostile to Israel, Trump’s alt-right followers flooded the page with anti-Semitic vitriol.
But other than that, the passengers had a delightful flight aboard the Hindenburg.
