Isn’t John the fat lipped dork who has a leaky bladder.
The GOP changed the rules when Romney came up short in 2012. Sorry, John. Doesn’t matter anyway, Trump will get 1237.
moot point, Trump will easily get more than the required amount of delegates.
At this point they need to get over it. We saw that trick too many times. The next president is going to be Trump or it is going to be Sanders or it is going to be Hillary. Putting Jeb! and little marco and Kasich in a blender and pulling Ryan out of the hat is going to fool no one. While once I would have supported Cruz, I am not sure he isn't his own road-kill at this point.
Trump has made no effort to change the rules. He has complained because other establishment types are wanting to change the rules.
Yes it makes sense that a majority is required.
Is John Fund as committed to upholding the rule of law on immigration?
If he gets more votes than the others, why shouldn’t he be the nominee?
The GOP is playing dirty. Trump is just meeting fire with fire.
Bye bye, GOPe!
Why not? Romney did it in 2012, and the GOPe is doing it now.
If Trump has the most delegates going into the convention (but not 1237), the GOP has two choices:
1. Go with Trump (who could beat Hillary), and try to win as many downline contests as possible: Senate, the House, State Houses and Governorships.
2. Screw Trump GOP voters at the convention, and lose EVERYTHING.
Blah blah blah....
None of this matters. Trump is going to get the delegates he needs to win outright.
Worth reading for background on GOP rules power play. Note this was written in 2012 after the Romney shenanigans:

John Fund = NRO bot
Suck it Fund. New sheriff in town.
Fund makes a terrible propagandist, and that’s basically all he is being here.
He implies the rules have been the same over 100 years. FAIL!
The RNC has tinkered with the rules to the point it’s very difficult to obtain the required 1237 delegates. The party wanted control. They didn’t want a rogue. They thought they had rigged it to prevent a Trump. Guess again.
Then to openly make public comments about a candidate trying to get the public to flee from supporting them? Talk of running a third party. Hold secret meetings to destroy a candidate? Real fair Mr. Fund.
As for people who voted in the minority for also ran candidates, it’s absurd to compare them to the majority who voted for the guy with a vast lead on his nearest competitor.
Would Fund also want us to think those who voted for Romney against Obama in 2012 and lost, are also disenfranchised?
Voters may not like it that their candidate didn’t win, but they don’t come away thinking they were disenfranchised. They come away thinking their guy didn’t attract the voters he needed. Duh!
Go suck a rotten egg Fund.
Monsieur Funde,
Eh, why have you decidee to ignore the clear sabotage to Le Trump’s path to the victoree by proven liars and cheats?
Par example, have you a raison for Monsieur Kasiche to be in le race, yes? Mais enfin, Monsieur Kasiche is aving his cake to eat it too. Is he not an agente of the cabal of deceits? Alors que Romnie, Grahame, McConnelle, etc.
And now Monsieur Crux is l’agent in thee same manière, Non? Ok?
Alors please Monsieur, c’est quoi cette merde de ton ecriture? Non mais allo quoi! Te Foudre!
From the article it only happened once, Lincoln, when the leader with delegates going into the convention lost in the 3rd round of voting. So it is very rare that the leader with the majority of delegates would not get the nomination. Fund is trying to do something to Trump that has only happened once in Republican party history yet he tries to make us believe that it is something that is just routine. The GOPe continues to treat conservative with disrespect and disdain. A trump win would put a stop to all of this and change the Republican party forever.
If John Fund doesn’t know his way around some scrotums other than his own I’ll kiss someone’s butt
My gaydar is Wil Robinson level when he purses his lips
John Fund also writes for the Wall Street Journal:
“I would like to cancel of the WSJ —John Fund is a bad man...”
