Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump harshly criticized New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez (R) during a campaign rally in her state Tuesday night, blaming the Latina governor for her state’s economic woes. The billionaire businessman faulted Martinez for an increase in unemployment and the number of people using food stamps in the state over the past 16 years and told the crowd that it wasn’t their fault — it’s their governor’s fault. Martinez was elected in November 2010. “We’ve got to get your governor to get going. She’s got to do a better job,” Trump said. “Hey, maybe I’ll run for governor of New Mexico. I’ll get this place going.” Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks at a campaign event in Albuquerque Tuesday. (AP Photo/Brennan Linsley) Martinez, the first Latina governor in the U.S. and head of the Republican Governor’s Association, did not attend Trump’s rally in her state because, she reportedly said, she was “really busy” running the state instead. Martinez, who endorsed Florida Sen. Marco Rubio for the Republican nomination, has been openly critical of Trump, particularly his comments on immigration. Trump also slammed Martinez Tuesday night for not doing enough to prevent Syrian refugees from relocating to her state. “If I was governor, that wouldn’t be happening,” Trump said. “They say, ‘The governors don’t have a choice.’ If I’m governor, I have a choice.” Martinez’s office hit back at Trump, who has been recently calling for party unity. “Apparently, Donald Trump doesn’t realize Governor Martinez wasn’t elected in 2000, that she has fought for welfare reform, and has strongly opposed the President’s Syrian refugee plan,” Mike Lonergan, Martinez’s press secretary, said in a statement to the Washington Post. “Governor Martinez doesn’t care about what Donald Trump says about her — she cares about what he says he will do to help New Mexicans,” Lonergan added. “She didn’t hear anything about that today.” Rubio jumped to Martinez’s defense as well following Trump’s attacks. “The truth is [Martinez] is one of the hardest working and most effective Governors in America,” Rubio tweeted early Wednesday morning. Ahead of Trump’s New Mexico rally, the Democratic Governors Association released a video pushing for Martinez to finally break her silence on whether or not she will endorse Trump. “For months, Gov. Susan Martinez has been ducking questions about supporting Donald Trump for president. Will Martinez use Trump’s first appearance in New Mexico to finally endorse his campaign? Or will she keep New Mexican voters in the dark while she continues her game of hide and seek,” Jared Leopold, the Democratic governor’s spokesman, said in a statement. But Trump’s rhetoric and Martinez’s absence from his rally Tuesday night didn’t do anything to quell any anxious Trump supporter who would like to see Martinez’s endorsement — or even her name on the ticket alongside Trump’s as she has been discussed as a potential running mate for the presumptive GOP nominee. As Lonergan said Tuesday night, “The governor will not be bullied into supporting a candidate until she is convinced that candidate will fight for New Mexicans.” — Follow Kaitlyn Schallhorn (@K_Schallhorn) on Twitter Read more stories from TheBlaze Glenn Beck Predicts Pedophilia is the ‘Next Stop on This Train’ Trump: I Don’t Know Enough to Discuss, but Suicide of Former Clinton White House Aide ‘Very Fishy’ Atheists Threaten to Sue Over Giant Cross in Texas Park — and Here’s the Bold Move Officials Just Took to Try and Preserve It Listen to Limbaugh’s Response When a Persistent Caller Presses Him to Endorse Trump ‘An Extremely Dangerous Bill’: This State Could Be First to Put Gun Owners Into Federal Database Source

House Speaker Paul Ryan plans to endorse presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, “senior-level Trump campaign sources” told ABC News. Republican US Presidential candidate Donald Trump arrives for a meeting with Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-WI) at the National Republican Congressional Committee May 12, 2016 in Washington, DC. (BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP/Getty Images) A Ryan spokesperson, however, told TheBlaze, “There’s no update and we’ve not told the Trump campaign to expect an endorsement.” “He’s also not told anyone he regrets anything,” the spokesperson added. It’s unclear if or when Ryan plans to announce his endorsement of Trump. The House speaker created some GOP controversy when he told CNN earlier this month that he simply wasn’t ready to support the presumptive nominee. Trump and Ryan ultimately met in Washington D.C. to discuss their differences. Though both men said the meeting was productive, Ryan still wasn’t prepared to support Trump’s candidacy after the sit-down. — Read more stories from TheBlaze Glenn Beck Predicts Pedophilia is the ‘Next Stop on This Train’ Trump: I Don’t Know Enough to Discuss, but Suicide of Former Clinton White House Aide ‘Very Fishy’ Atheists Threaten to Sue Over Giant Cross in Texas Park — and Here’s the Bold Move Officials Just Took to Try and Preserve It Listen to Limbaugh’s Response When a Persistent Caller Presses Him to Endorse Trump ‘An Extremely Dangerous Bill’: This State Could Be First to Put Gun Owners Into Federal Database Source
