Donald Trump shattered the GOP primary record this year by more than a million votes.
He was running against 16 challengers – another record.

Despite this fact GOP elites continue to trash the Republican nominee.
They want Hillary in the White House.

Today Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell said Donald Trump was not yet a “credible candidate.”
McConnell spoke with NY1 TV:

Sen. Mitch McConnell:Trump clearly needs to change, in my opinion, to win the general election. What I’ve said to him both publicly and privately: ‘You’re a great entertainer. You turn on audiences. You’re good before a crowd. You have a lot of Twitter followers. That worked fine for you in the primaries. But now that you are in the general, people are looking for a level of seriousness that is typically conveyed by having a prepared text and Teleprompter and staying on message.’ So my hope is that he is beginning to pivot and become what I would call a more serious and credible candidate for the highest office in the land.”

Geoff Bennett: “At the moment, though, I hear you saying he does not meet that threshold of credibility?”

McConnell: “He’s getting closer. Getting closer.”
