Vulnerable Republican Pat Meehan’s backbone vanished last week when he went mute as Donald Trump refused to disavow David Duke and the KKK. Meehan’s silence on whether or not he would support the racially offensive Donald Trump has prompted widespread concern over his missing principles. In hopes of recovering Congresswoman Meehan’s backbone, the DCCC issued a notice to help the Congressman find his integrity again. Since Meehan’s first choice candidate Gov. Chris Christie endorsed Donald Trump, Pennsylvania voters deserve to know if he will follow the Governor’s lead. The notice reads:
“Missing since last week when Trump refused to disavow the KKK. Principles were expected to make an appearance to help Meehan say if he would support Trump as the nominee, but have been neither seen nor heard. If found, please call (202) 225-2011.”
“Pat Meehan can’t stay silent forever,” said Jermaine House of DCCC. “It’s time for Congressman Meehan to stand up and explain to the people of Southeast Pennsylvania, if he’ll support Donald Trump.”
