The Hill reports:
Former President Trump said Tuesday fellow GOP candidates “eat their young” by working with Republicans like former Speaker Paul Ryan (Wis.) and Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah) to attempt to thwart Trump’s presidential run.
“If [Romney] and RINO Paul fought as hard against Obama as they do against President Donald J. Trump, they would never have lost,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform. Trump often uses “RINO,” or “Republican in Name Only,” as an insult toward more moderate members of his party.
“But remember, Republicans ‘Eat Their Young,’ and that’s the problem with so many in our Party,” Trump continued. “They go after the people who are on their side, rather than the Radical Left Democrats that are DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY.”

My favorite thing about this is Trump will never admit ever saying or doing anything incorrectly, so now he has no choice but to double down on the idea that Republicans eat babies. https://t.co/3LcLTS1kGR
