paraphrase:
Trump is just one Republican who happens to be in a big office and I'm going to back whatever Republican is nominated for that office but Republicans party is more than just one guy and one office, and we want to work for everybody and get along with everybody so backing that one guy is not really who we are -that guy who heads our party now -well he won't always be there-but the Republican Party will still be here, working for America just like we always have......."
Hurd reminds me of George Herbert Waker Bush who always managed to sidestep responsibility and was, like Hurd, CIA.

(204,805 posts)So many actual Republicans we've seen have become "never Trumpers" and left the party. And, given the policies he said he supports, it makes no sense that Will Hurd supports Trump. Trump isn't really a Republican or has any policy convictions at all - he just supports whatever benefits Trump. And, if you remember, George HW Bush can't stand Trump, he voted for Hillary.
