Ken Simpler is trying to present himself to voters as above partisan politics. So, is is fair to assume that he is still a huge Trump supporter?
Yes it is. Here’s why:
Any Republican that doesn’t explicitly and frequently confront the mess that Trump is making out of our American democracy is a Trump supporter. While it is easy to think of the MAGA hat wearing idiots as Trump’s base of support, the network propping up Trump spreads far beyond the 30% of Republicans who admit to being his fans. The silent, acquiescing Republicans like Ken Simpler are also a vital bulwark supporting Trump and his ongoing malfeasance.
This election ANY candidate with an “R” next to his/her name on the ballot is a Trump supporter unless they have PROVEN otherwise. Simpler’s continuing silence on the main issue in this election just will not cut it.
