You really can't make this shit up. Just when you think that a few Republican candidates will show just a bit of decency and honesty concerning their support/disapproval of Trump, they fool you once again.

I guess the desire for power really does corrupt.

-- So what would it take for these Republicans to actually dump Trump? Dogged by accusations of corruption as he ran for governor of Louisiana in 1983, Edwin Edwards told reporters: "The only way I can lose this election is if I’m caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy." The Democrat won.
Earlier this year, Trump boasted in Iowa: "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters.”
We were reminded of both these quotes during Blake Farenthold’s appearance on MSNBC last night. Asked by host Chris Hughes whether he would still support Trump even if the Republican nominee said on tape that he liked raping women, the congressman from Texas suggested he might — eventually adding he'd “consider it.”
“Again — it depends — you don't know the entire context of all of this,” he said. “That would be bad, and I would have to consider — I'd consider it. But again, we're talking about what Donald Trump said 10 years ago as opposed to what Hillary Clinton has done in the past two or three years.”
