Bryant calls Trump comments ‘unacceptable’
“Donald Trump’s remarks are unacceptable,” Bryant said in a written statement on Saturday. “They do not square with the man I have gotten to know the past few months. He has done the right thing and apologized.”
Bryant did not say whether he would continue to work for the Trump campaign, on which he has been an adviser and served as a surrogate, making campaign appearances in other states on Trump’s behalf….
…”Mr. Trump’s vulgar statements and apparent actions are reprehensible and impossible to defend,” Wicker said in a written statement. “Most of us have done things in life that make us ashamed and call for a true apology. It will be important to see if Donald Trump is able to demonstrate genuine remorse and humility.”,,,
,,,A spokeswoman for state Treasurer Lynn Fitch, who serves as chair of the Mississippi Women for Trump Committee, said Fitch’s “support hasn’t changed.”
