Sen. Mike Lee said Wednesday that Donald Trump “scares me to death” and that he still has concerns about the presumptive Republican presidential nominee and isn’t ready to endorse him.
The Utah Republican, who previously backed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz for president, also told constituents during an evening tele-town hall that he finds likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton unacceptable, suggesting that he might be able to endorse Trump down the line. But as for now, Lee is withholding his support from the New York businessman.
“I have not supported Donald Trump up to this point, I have not endorsed him,” Lee said. “I have some concerns with him. He scares me to death; so does Hillary Clinton. There is no easy choice right now.
“I’m going to continue to watch this” the senator added. “I’ll make the decision as best I can, but I’m not there yet.”
