NASA space shuttle commander goes rogue and LEAVES OUT endorsement of Trump in RNC speech - despite it being in her prepared remarks
A retired NASA astronaut left out her endorsement of Donald Trump during her Republican convention speech.
Eileen Collins had planned to give her backing to the party's nominee during her address to the Cleveland crowd on Wednesday night.
But the first female commander of an American space shuttle didn't lend her support to The Donald when she made it on stage - even though it was in her prepared remarks.
She did hint at his campaign slogan, saying: 'We need leadership that will make America great again'.
