Eddie Munster won't rescind endorsement of Trump

Speaker Paul Ryan declined to rescind his endorsement of Donald Trump, making his first comments on his latest flare-up with the Republican candidate since Trump refused to back the Wisconsin congressman in his re-election race, the New York Times reports.

Ryan said Mr. Trump won the party’s nomination “fair and square” and deserved the support of Republican elected leaders.

Said Ryan: “We are a party where the grass-roots Republican primary voter selects our nominee. And I think there’s something to be said about respecting those voters.”
