The group of current and former state party leaders, conservative activists and association bosses plans to release a letter Monday that explains that despite previous opposition and concern about Trump’s rhetoric and policy positions, the organization thinks he would be a stronger, more uniting president than Democrat Hillary Clinton.
“We are not enamored with Donald Trump’s bombastic rhetoric and personality. But at least we know that Donald Trump won’t divide the country and fuel the flames of racial confrontation by accusing the police and the entire criminal justice system of being racist,” the group wrote. “We also know that Trump can better address the terrorist threat we face because, contrary to Clinton, he is willing to acknowledge and address its root cause: radical Islamic fundamentalism. And we also know that Trump will reverse the current over-regulation and excessive taxation of business which stifles economic growth and prevents the creation of well paid jobs.”
