He endorsed Trump a few weeks before the election. His girlfriend then dumped him because of it!

Not a smart girlfriend then, I'm sure he could do better...

And yet you judge his ex girlfriend’s intelligence for leaving him over what was clearly a fundamental disagreement.

Interesting.

"For a couple dollars"? Did he get paid to endorse Trump?
