Before he had to pretend to love Trump. Most GOPers hate Trump. But the mythical Trump as built up by RW media hold such power in their moronic electorate, they all have to pretend along. These are greedy power hungry people. That in the end aren't really smarter than Trump. I mean, Trump is playing them all. It is hilarious.
