A lot of Republicans do not consider Trump a Republican, and feel there is no obligation to vote for him just because he is running on the Republican ticket.
It's very similar to Bernie - Wasn't Bernie an independent until he ran for President, and only then did he become a Democrat?
In order to run for one party, you have to be a member of that party. Trump cannot just show up and say "I'm a Republican" - It just doesn't work that way. It's very similar to what Trump is trying to do with the African American population by claiming he is "for them". Same with the Veterans - Trump suddenly claims he is for the Veterans yet in the past seventy years what he ever done for any veteran organization until after he started to run for President?
