Spurred by Donald J. Trumps mounting victories, a small but influential and growing group of conservative leaders are calling for a third-party option to spare voters a wrenching general election choice between a Republican they consider completely unacceptable and Hillary Clinton.

Actually, if I was Trump I’d dare them to go third party.
Trump promised to run as a Republican if they would support him.
Now this??
All of them, including people like Rick Perry and Dan Patrick, think they know better than us.
I’ll never forget Dale Bumpers talking about being the 51st vote to give the canal to Panama. He actually said “I know the people of Arkansas are against this but I think I know what’s best than the people of Arkansas.”
How stupid are these people?
At a minimum, there will be the largest write in vote for Trump if for some reason he is not the candidate.
If they try to steal this nomination from Trump, which is already gaining a lot of sympathy votes for Trump on top of his already HUGE lead, (even the liberals are shocked at the GOP being so anti the front runner)
If they steal the nom from Trump, the majority of the electorate will just write in:
Donald J Trump
Every ballot has an option to write in a candidates name if they do not like the options
People will crawl over broken glass to vote for their candidate of choice Donald Trump by the millions. Trump would gain so many quazi sympathy votes on top of his already huge base, it would dominate the news cycle with how evil and corrupt the GOP are for going after the most popular candidate.
Almost a quarter century ago the GOP was claiming that Ross Perot was doing much the same to them.
According to their standards, now they are imitating Perot.
This is what is trending, not the other hashtag which is just. LAME.
I would sooner vote for Josef Stalin than I would vote for Donald Trump, said Mr. Boot. This is amazing! Joseph Stalin? This is worse than anything Trump himself has said. And the dork in Congress who won’t vote for Trump because he doesn’t want his son or grandson to be like Trump. Get over yourself.
George H Bush is used to calling the shots.
He did not care that he lost to Bill Clinton. His son George W then became President for 8 years. Talk about dynasty.
But remember the primary
G W Bush took out McCain, so then McCain was promised a clear path to the nomination from the GOP who is really George H Bush and his media tools like R. Ailes who is best friends with Rush Limbaugh
McCain took out Romney, so then Romney was promised the nomination the next cycle. Along comes Newt Gingrich, and the establishment took out Newt for Romney as he was promised the nomination because McCain took him out.
So of course it was now Jeb’s turn. So obviously Romney owes the Bush's a favor for calling the shots behind the scenes, which is why he is going to denounce Donald J Trump tomorrow.
Remember, George H Bush is now so LIVID at what Trump has said about his 2 sons. First that Jeb is low energy, the previous front runner who was promised the nomination, and then Trump said Bush could have made better decisions with the Iraq war.
All of the Bush's are behind the scenes wanting Trump to lose and are calling the shots and getting Mitt Loser Romney to trash Trump tomorrow.
That is the story no one is talking about. The Bush are behind the Florida super pac over the next 2 weeks which is attempting to take out Trump.
And yes, the Bush's will take Cruz, who won't win many states in the general, or Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump.
The Bush Mob family wants to prevent Trump from being POTUS. That is the real story. Jealous, jealous family. Sad.
Whenever you hear a GOP Trump critic go over the top or even just slightly criticize Trump, picture as if George H Bush was saying it and it will make more sense.
George H Bush is the person who is driving the anti Trump agenda even thought he is hitting up everyone for their millions because his feeling were hurt that Donald Trump supposedly insulted his 2 sons.
If Trump becomes President, you can GUARANTEE George H Bush will NEVER endorse or visit President Trump. Bush is LIVID that his family has been trashed which unfortunately it is what it is. Bush family thought they were royalty and well thought of by the unwashed Republican voters and they were shocked when the down to earth New Yorker became much more popular than they are now.
Sounds like a tempest in a teapot to me. I think when all is said and done, the vast majority of Republicans will support Trump.
Listen, and understand! That Trump is out there!
It can't be bargained with.
It can't be reasoned with.
It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear.
And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.
#Never Rubio #Never Romney
I voted for Cruz but will vote Trump if he is the nominee.
Your beloved GOPe establishment criminals can go straight to hell. I will celebrate the day the GOP ceases to exist.
By my count, that makes 14 different threads that you have spammed with that same graphic.
Who made you JimRob?
It was applicable to each thread topic. So get off your Trump high horse.
This does not mean he can not be VP!! these two NEED to come together and so do we !!!
You do express well the feel I get from Cruz... “If you want to live” follow Cruz.
If you read his name quickly, it sounds like Das Boot.
Stop posting that graphic and that text.
Exactly.
That is an excellent analysis that I had certainly never considered.
