Yeah, like they actually want to beat Hillary.

This bloody coward is completely tone deaf as usual.

I think you should replace Cruz’s face with Romney’s.

[Note: I haven’t said I support Cruz.]

[FreeReign]

So in the first round is Mitch a Cruz, Trump, Katich or Rubio delegate?

[exit82]

Whenever I think I cannot despise McConnell any more than I already do, he gives me a reason to do so.

[MHT]

So this is what it takes to wake up and get involved? He’s no Energizer bunny. We need to replace him.

[Sacajaweau]

So they’re pretend delegates but they could put him over the top. Yeh...that makes sense...if you failed math.

[Iscool]

I hope some Trump people are in there counting the votes...

Prediction: If Trump is elected, McConnell fast tracks Obama’s SCOTUS nominee for approval prior to the inauguration.

Huh? They're not 'pretend delegates.' They're real delegates who are obliged to vote for Trump on the first ballot because Trump won delegates in their state's primary or caucus. The problem is that many people who have been getting the job of 'Trump delegates' are not 'Trump supporters.' Not sure what is so difficult to understand about the concept.

Exactly right. McConnell doesn’t fear Hillary. He’ll give her everything she asks for, just like he did with Obama.

[stephenjohnbanker]

BINGO!

Since, according to Manafort, he’s working with the Trump campaign, I would have thought McConnell would have found new respect here.
