During the rally, Trump offered jabs at 2012 nominee Mitt Romney and former rival Jeb Bush, who have yet to endorse his candidacy. His hiring about six weeks ago was seen as a sign that party veterans were embracing Trump’s campaign. Inside, Trump’s rally was interrupted several times by protesters who were escorted out of the Anaheim Convention Center. House Speaker Paul Ryan is still holding out on endorsing Trump even as his staff and other House Republicans and aides communicate more closely with the Trump campaign on policy. A day after violent protesters outside a Trump rally threw burning items at police and toppled barricades, Trump’s afternoon rally in Anaheim was boisterous but less heated.
