Why Republicans Go Crawling Back to Donald Trump
High-profile Republicans, including those who have criticized Donald Trump sharply in the past, are scrambling to get on the former president’s good side before November.

Not only is he still the GOP’s presumptive presidential nominee; Republicans have repeatedly proved perfectly willing to forgive his indiscretions, however serious.
