Tea Party leader Jenny Beth Martin lashed out against Donald Trump in a speech Friday at the Conservative Political Action Conference.
“I know Donald Trump says he loves the Tea Party, but that’s not what it takes to be Tea Party,” Martin, who’s chair of the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund, said. “Donald Trump loves himself first, last and everywhere in between. He loves himself more than our country. He loves himself more than the Constitution. He doesn’t love you or me, and he doesn’t love the Tea Party. Donald Trump has no business thinking he’s Tea Party. Every Tea Party person who truly loves the Constitution should take that into account when casting their vote.”
