We already knew that Wisconsin Speaker Robin Vos is putting party before the people of his district, his state, his country or is own dignity by endorsing Trump despite Trump repeatedly shitting on him.
That said, don't expect Vos to appear in a Trump commercial anytime soon, not after what he said in an interview earlier this week:
