Donald Trump won’t kiss the ring and sign Ronna McDaniel’s ‘loyalty’ pledge

Ronna McDaniel saw the writing on the wall — Donald Trump, the most popular Republican candidate in history (by far), refuses to quit in spite of the endless legal and political witch hunts — and something had to be done.

So Mitt Romney’s niece threw a hail Mary, and back in February, McDaniel mulled the idea of a “loyalty pledge” before promptly instituting it.  Here’s what she had to say at the time about the tactic, during a chummy conversation with CNN’s Dana Bash, via Politico:

We’re saying you’re not going to get on the debate stage unless you make this pledge[.]

But Trump refused to play her game.  Reported two days ago:

Donald Trump said Wednesday he will not sign a pledge to support the eventual Republican nominee — an RNC requirement for participation in the first primary debate.

I say this with total sincerity: God bless him.

Trump argued that his declination, which would mean no debate, was “not a question of guts,” but of “intelligence,” and he’s absolutely right.  Trump is an author, and his books include numerous references to famous works of Western literature, which means he’s well versed in classic authors.  He’s likely heard the quote often attributed to George Bernard Shaw about tussling with swine: “Never wrestle with a pig.  You both get dirty, and the pig likes it.”  A double-entendre for the ages!  McDaniel, in particular, is cozy in the sty and at the trough of establishment politics.

  1. I dont blame him . The republican party needs him more than he needs them. Any other republican nominee is just part of the uni party ( controlled opposition ) to the globalist , satanic sleaze that is the democrat party.

  2. It’s OK, he doesn’t need to participate in the first debate. Trump has nearly 70% of republican votes already. We have seen 4 years of his ability as president and like it.
