Is a majority of the New Hampshire electorate going to be down with this from Sen. Kelly Ayotte come November?
Ayotte on Sunday was forced to grapple with Trump's latest transgression: Making racist remarks about a federal judge. Trump came under fire this week for saying a federal judge's "Mexican heritage" should disqualify him from overseeing an ongoing fraud case against Trump University.
Asked how she felt about those remarks, Ayotte—generally considered a moderate among Republicans—slammed the presumptive nominee. "His comments are offensive and wrong, and he should retract them," Ayotte said, according to local New Hampshire news station WMUR.
Ayotte, however, maintained that she'd still vote for Trump, despite his racism.
Then she added the strained refrain that while she's supporting him she's not endorsing him, which means absolutely nothing except that she's a hypocrite. Not that that's a new place for a Republican to find herself in, but in this case it's downright reprehensible.
