Okay, now Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toomey is officially the most pathetic Republican senator running for re-election (narrowly taking the title away from Kelly Ayotte). Following Donald Trump's really terrible weekend, even worse debate, and the defection of dozens of Republicans, Toomey just can't decide whether to tell the public who it is he's going to vote for.
"Sadly, last night’s debate again showed the shortcomings of both presidential candidates. I have not endorsed Donald Trump and I have repeatedly spoken out against his flawed policies, and his outrageous comments, including his indefensible and appalling comments about women," Toomey said in a news release Monday morning.
Toomey has previously said he hopes to support Trump, but needed convincing. But after the release Friday of the recording showing the GOP nominee bragging about aggressively kissing and groping women, Toomey would not say if he will support Trump, or if he is still considering doing so, despite repeated questions this weekend from the Inquirer and other news outlets.
He also tried to change the subject in that statement, saying "Katie McGinty has yet to say a single word against Hillary Clinton’s disastrous policies that have endangered our country, her widespread dishonesty, or the corruption of her behavior with the Clinton Foundation." Uh huh. Keep talking about McGinty instead of Trump, Toomey. That'll work. Just to emphasize how chickenshit he is, he also cancelled a campaign event Monday morning.
McGinty has this one right, saying, "It is well past time for Pat Toomey to man up."
Can you chip in $3 to Katie McGinty to send Pat Toomey packing?
