Donald Trump won the primary election over 13 opponents in his run to be the Republican candidate for president this November and won the most votes ever at the Republican National Convention. He earned the right to represent the Republican Party. It's the duty of every Republican to support him against Hillary Clinton this fall. He may not be your "shining" example, but he is the candidate to lead the party this November. Let's not shoot yourself in the foot and not support him. The "tea party" split the Republicans these past several years and is the reason Obama won the last two elections.

We don't want another president from the Democratic Party to lead us down the tubes.

Vote for your Republican candidate, Trump, to lead our country down the path.
