Apparently many of the ‘never Trump-ers’ including Romney, Kasich and Bush have called to congratulate Trump after doing their best to stab him in the back.
The fear now is Trump will be enveloped by the beltway ‘go along to get along’ status quo statism and start watering down his campaign promises. People such as Paul Ryan are examples of politicians who have done this—much to the disdain of Republican voters.
Trump should gracefully accept congratulations from such people—even from Obama. But he not reward their betrayals with an invitation to his party. He should not grant them an ear or any influence. And in the case of Hillary, he should still lock her up.
