http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/orrin-hatch-trump-kkk-inexperiencedFollowing Trump's interview over the weekend in which he avoided disavowing former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) said that the Republican presidential frontrunner just doesn't quite understand how to express his beliefs.
"I think it's up to us to make it clear that we don't tolerate those types of racist organizations and I don't know many people who would believe that we do," Hatch said on Tuesday when discussing how Republican lawmakers should approach Trump's comments, like those he made regarding the KKK, according to CNN. "I think deep down, I don't think Donald Trump tolerates it either. I think he is just inexperienced in expressing himself at things like that."

I once saw him do a 180 during an interview when the reporter gave him additional information. He literally spend five minutes making an argument and then just like that, on a dime, flipped and began pontificating from the other side. It was an amazing feat. Hatch has no principles. He is the defination of a hack.
