"Supporting" Vs. "Endorsing" The Bigot (UPDATED)

Since they have a dimbulb base and a corporate media all- too- willing to give them all the slack they need, now- and- future endangered Republicans have settled on some weasel- wording (thanks, Fred Luntz?) in an attempt to distance their political necks from their "presidential" nominee, neo- fascist bigot Donald "Rump" Trump.  The latest weasel?

Sen. Kelly Ayotte [R-NH] said Sunday night that presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s recent comments about a judge of Mexican heritage and Muslim judges are “offensive and wrong, and he should retract them.” 

But Ayotte’s overall position on Trump has not changed. She still she plans to support the GOP presidential nominee, but as a candidate for re-election, she is not planning to endorse anyone for president.  (our emphasis)

For Ayotte, and every one of the moral cowards that are "supporting the nominee" but not "endorsing Trump," Charles Pierce has this to say:

They know that He, Trump has exposed the dark and beating heart of both modern conservatism and the electoral success of the modern Republican Party. They can no more distance themselves from it totally as they can distance themselves from their own hearts. So they support, but don't endorse, and assume people are too dim to notice that the proposition is absurd on its face.

Here's an updated list of the bold bigots and the moral cowards who are "endorsing" Rump outright or are merely "supporting" him.   Outright bigots or moral cowards, they're all weasels.  It's the same difference without a distinction.

UPDATE:  Let's see them defend the latest "strategery" coming out of the raging, thin- skinned bully.
