There would be a run on pitchforks if the GOPe forces a brokered convention.

I’m thinking of applying for the pine-knot & coal-oil torch concession for the convention since you seem to have the pitchfork thing all tied up already.

BTW, I think it would be strategic to set our booths up next to each other.

I don’t see how it could called be forcing one if no one has the required delegates. That is the way it works, and has worked in the past. The problem will come in if the RNC tries to push and pull delegates to their favorite over others who have more support. There will have to be a first vote, if no one wins that it becomes an open convention, like it or not.
