Trump refuses to support Paul Ryan, John McCain in upcoming Republican primaries
What's the opposite of quid pro quo?
"Chickens coming home to roost"
[WASHINGTONPOST] Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is refusing to back House Speaker Paul D. Ryan in his upcoming primary election, saying in an interview Tuesday that he is "not quite there yet" in endorsing his party’s top-ranking elected official.

Trump also said he was not supporting Sen. John Maverick McCain
... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution...
in his primary in Arizona, and he singled out Sen. Kelly Ayotte as a weak and disloyal leader in New Hampshire, a state whose presidential primary Trump won handily.

With Ryan’s Wisconsin primary scheduled for next Tuesday, Trump praised the House speaker’s underdog opponent, Paul Nehlen, for running "a very good campaign." Trump said that Ryan has sought his endorsement -- an assertion that a Ryan front man denied later Tuesday -- but that as of now he is only "giving it very serious consideration."

"I like Paul, but these are horrible times for our country," Trump said. "We need very strong leadership. We need very, very strong leadership. And I’m just not quite there yet. I’m not quite there yet."
