There is big difference in endorsing someone because he or she is your party's nominee and actually working to see they get elected. Most Republicans are endorsing Trump but I have seen damn few that are actually working to get him elected.1. Nobody gives a flying fig about Clinton & Benghazi or Clinton's emails. Real voters care about real matters near to them.We should be seeing a big jump in the polls for Trump in the middle of the convention with hour after hour of praise for the nominee and also only few weeks after the release of the FBI report on Clinton. However, in the most populous battleground states of Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina, Clinton is still on top with only a small uptick for Trump.
2. I wonder about the "praise" of Kasich not showing for the convention...along with scores of other high-ranking GOP officials. The actions speak louder than words. And to that, Trump has been getting slapped in the face every hour of the convention. it's not like the viewing public is unaware that most of their party is a no-show in protest of Donald Trump himself.
This summer is when both campaigns put the petal to metal. They have to work not just at national level but they need grass roots support in the states and that takes a party united behind it's nominee. I don't see that with Trump.
