EXCLUSIVE – #NeverTrump Convention Rebels:We Don’t Need A Rule Change To Stop Trump
Breitbart ^ | 6/26/2016 | Patrick Howley

Posted on 06/28/2016 8:24:35 AM PDT by orchestra

A group of anti-Donald Trump Republican delegates is making one final do-or-die stand at the Republican convention in Cleveland from July 18-21.

The #NeverTrumpers are a mix of conservative-movement Ted Cruz supporters and Republicans who backed Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, and other candidates. They want to stop Mr. Trump, the winner of the GOP primaries, by peeling off enough of his pledged delegates on the first ballot to keep him below a majority, which would force a second ballot.

Don’t be surprised if Mr. Cruz throws his support behind Trump at the convention. Revenge for how McConnell, McLame and team treated him should still be looking in his head.


Too little, too late. Cruz doing the bare minimum to defeat the Butcher of Benghazi is not good enough. Cruz has green lighted this never Trump nonsense and he needs to pay for that Hillary enabling treason.

That would be the smart thing to do.

I was for Cruz and still believe he would be the better candidate. However, he lost and Trump won despite all the roadblocks thrown in his way. I can not listen to Glenn Beck any longer. I will vote for Trump, and I hope he picks a VP like Sessions so I can get 100% behind his campaign. We need to stop Hillary and fill the SC with conservative justices. I pray Mr. Trump will do that.

Look for an opposite and equal reaction from Trump supporters.

A wipe out of GOP down ballot nominees in the general election.
The likes of which, the GOP has never experienced.

They don't care. The important thing is that the importation of illegal aliens must continue.

What will they win?

Nothing. They are pinning their hopes on 2020 like a bunch of fools. They think we can survive 4 years of Hillary and it'll be so bad that the GOPe will sweep into the White House and all of Congress.

Dreamers.

If Hillary is elected, they can kiss their party goodbye forever.

New NeverTrump/Delegates Unbound anti-Trump delegate ad compares Trump to Reagan unfavorably; running on Fox News this a.m.

"Follow Your Conscience"

The #NeverTrumpers are a mix of conservative-movement Ted Cruz supporters who prefer Hillary over Trump, etc.

No, the #NeverTrump #RepublicansForHillary are the GOP elite. This Ted Cruz supporter will be voting for Trump against Hillary. To do otherwise is foolish.

Thanks for sharing. It would be awesome if Cruz would come around and rally the Conservative troops for Trump asap!!
Look at what happened just yesterday in that dreadful abortion case ruling, in which no less than Reagan appointee Anthony Kennedy joined the liberals in advancing the slaughter of innocent unborn babies.
Our entire way of life in on the line in November!!
If, for no other reason than SCOTUS, Ted Cruz needs to step forward and do everything he can to help Trump defeat Hillary!!
BTW, Trump’s historic release of prospective justices has been met with universal acclaim among Conservatives.

No, they are not good people. They have been seduced by the dark side and are ready to discard honor and ethics.

It sounds to me as if the driving force is Ted Cruz, with some Bush clan minions along for the ride.

I completely agree with you. At this point, nothing Cruz does will erase the petty, back stabbing behavior he has indulged in. May Texas wake up.

Are people like this paid off by the Clinton Crime Family? Or simply afraid of it?

Neither.

They are globalists, and agree fundamentally with Clintonism in almost every detail.

Why wouldn’t it be breach of contract if they sign up as DELEGATES to represent the will of the voters and don’t do that?

Actually, you are very correct—the plan was to have Jeb v. Hillary and for Hillary to win.

Everybody gets money and power.

But Trump came along and threw a wrench into the plan.
