Some observers say U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan has the worst of both worlds by not defending Donald Trump, or rescinding his endorsement.
But during a stop in Normal, U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk says Ryan did enough to distance himself from Trump and the candidate’s comments about women.
"It is, I think. I have told publicly Donald Trump to shut the hell up with regard to Speaker Ryan. I don't think attacking your fellow Republicans is a way to build bridges in Washington."
Kirk is calling on Trump to step down and the Republican National Committee to choose a new nominee. However, the legality of ballot removal is cloudy at this stage in the election. Kirk is running against Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth.
