Trump Campaign: GOP Must Get Behind Trump or ‘Shut the Hell Up’
Donald Trump’s campaign co-chairman says Republicans should either unite behind their party’s presumptive presidential nominee or shut up.
Sam Clovis, speaking on CNN’s New Day said:
The leadership of the Republican Party needs to figure out what they want.
Either they want to get behind the presumptive nominee who will be the nominee of this party and make sure that we do everything we can to win in November, or we’re just asking them, if they can’t do that, then just shut the hell up.

Reality
The quote from the Trump aide is in-line with Donald Trump himself. Earlier in the week Trump told a rally in Atlanta, Georgia that his Republican critics should
be quiet and don’t talk or he’ll go it alone.
