"... proposals Trump has been touting throughout his campaign will not be included in the platform ..." Too bad, #Lyin'Donald.

COMMENTS: 
*  That would be a difficult decision for McConnell since he's not qualified to be a Senator. His claim to fame is that he's owned by the rich and powerful NRA. He's their puppet.
*  Pretty amazing that he's even gotten this far when he refuses to show his taxes, refused to debate Bernie and is already positioning himself to not debate Hillary, because he knows he'll be asked pointed questions which will prove his ignorance and thus unqualified. Hillary will run circles around him, so he'll never do it. Here's what I find amusing:  Trump has only been successful this far by using the old-time psychological trick called the "Power of Three" where statements sound more powerful or funnier and sticks in people's minds when grouped into threes. "Liar" "Crooked" "Hillary", yet there's no substance, but repeated over and over people who only disliked her suddenly began hating her. Most literary people understand this rule, but the masses don't. Remember the blood coming out of her eyes, nose and "wherever"? He was telling the world he thought of Meg Kelly as just a vagina. The fool unwittingly used the rule of three on himself when he tried defending his small hands. Now he'll go down in history as being the candidate with the small "you-know-what". And it'll haunt him for years to come!
*  Don't confuse conservatives with pesky things like facts. The cognitive dissonance will cause their heads to explode.
*  All Joe an the other Trump Kooks have is avoiding all serious questions by pointing fingers at Obama or Hillary. They cannot answer questions honestly so they jump into rants about how dishonest other people are. Sad. It's clear theyare living in fear. Hillary is so far ahead and will slam dunk it when she faces Trump in a debate.
*  But even the NRA is saying Trump's idea of putting guns on all citizens in saloons is ludicrous.
*  Oh all that hate. We are much better off under Pres. Obama. Trump is just not "imperfect" but is unqualified to lead this country. Are you for him because you think Trump will bring back white supremacy?

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Declines to Say if Trump Is Qualified to Be POTUS
By Nicki Rossoll, June 26, 2016

Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell declined Sunday to say if Donald Trump, his party's presumptive presidential candidate, is qualified to be president.

"Well, look, I think it's no question that he's made a number of mistakes over the last few weeks. I think they're beginning to right the ship. It's a long time until November. And the burden obviously will be on him to convince people that he can handle this job," McConnell said on ABC's "This Week."

Pressed by ABC Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on whether he thinks Trump is qualified, McConnell replied, "I leave it up to the American people to decide."

A new ABC News/Washington Post poll released today shows 64 percent of Americans, a new high, say Trump is unqualified to serve as president.

That could spell trouble for the presumptive Republican nominee in November, but the Majority Leader insists Trump won the Republican nomination fairly and that Republican primary voters have made their decision.

"He won the Republican nomination fair and square," McConnell said. "He got more votes than anybody else, against a whole lot of well-qualified candidates, and so our primary voters have made their decision as to who they want to be the nominee," he said. "The American people will be able to make that decision in the fall."

Conservative commentator and columnist George Will said Friday that he's leaving the Republican Party because of Donald Trump, and he urged other conservatives to do the same.

McConnell offered reassurance to Will, whom he called a friend: "The Republican Party is still going to be America's conservative party," McConnell told Stephanopoulos, adding that the party's platform will include basic principles Republicans believe in.

That means that proposals Trump has been touting throughout his campaign will not be included in the platform, including his proposed ban on Muslims entering the country.

"Our nominee may not agree with every single one of those, but the Republican Party, it will remain America's conservative party," he said. "The platform will be a traditional Republican platform...and I don't expect it to differ that much from the platform we had four years ago.
