Republican presidential candidate and frontrunner Donald Trump remains unimpressed by members of the GOP establishment.
After former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) announced his endorsement of Trump's rival, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the real estate mogul did what he does best: Remind everyone that Cantor was a loser. Formerly one of the most powerful Republicans in the nation, Cantor stunningly lost his primary race in 2014 to a political novice and college professor, Dave Brat.
Here's Cantor's endorsement:
Eric Cantor ✔
@EricCantor
.@JebBush is a true leader w/ a long-term vision for our country and the know how to implement it not just talk about it. I'm #AllInForJeb.

Donald J. Trump ✔
@realDonaldTrump
Who wants the endorsement of a guy (@EricCantor) who lost in perhaps the greatest upset in the history of Congress?

(115,704 posts)But what I think is funny is the fact that tRump can't resist being an asshole to the other GOP candidates. It was just an observation but I certainly don't have any problem with it.
