you knew it!...RNC chairman: 'We're going to embrace whoever the nominee is'

that's why they haven't done one thing to slow trump down....

Washington (CNN)Despite Donald Trump's commanding win in the Nevada caucus Tuesday, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is holding off crowning the Republican front-runner as the standard-bearer -- for now.

"I think it's pretty clear we're going to embrace whoever the nominee is. I embrace all of these candidates," he told CNN's Alisyn Camerota Wednesday on "New Day." "Whoever the nominee ends up becoming they're going to join the biggest RNC operation we've put together."

Priebus said the GOP is still pretty divided in its support.

"It's a big party. And there are some of our major donors I saw standing behind Donald Trump. People are competing. And people are endorsing different candidates," he said.

going with a billionaire this time out. A foulmouthed, fascist bigot that usually lies more then he tells the truth. The perfect candidate for such a corrupt and vile group of individuals.
