That is fine with me. I still believe in closed primaries and have for several decades.

Yeah, this racist, hard core leftist judge will go down for his sins too!

Wise-TF up chump.

There is no ‘racist war’ going on regarding ‘Judge’ Curiel. Trump has properly pointed out that the La Raza affiliated jurist has a clear conflict of interest, and it has been established that of the many organizations Curiel is affiliated with, that contributions to the Hillary Clinton campaign have been made.

Try to learn all the facts before making an ass out of yourself, ok?

He meant he is associated with Mexican groups who want to take over the USA.


That’s what Trump should have said.
I don’t know if this incident with this judge will hurt him in the long run...but he just needs to be careful about the words he uses.

There will not —be— a third ballot.

Trump has enough bound delegates to get the nomination on the —first— ballot.

They don’t want a free America. Their calling card, to take rights and freedoms from the majority is to accuse them of being racist. A made up communist word. The genie is out of the bottle, the Gop doesn’t have the power. Finally the people realize we can choose who we want. Never go back.

Not to worry, Trump will be just fine.
He seems to be able to do it very well.

Trump said the judge is Mexican.
So his father Mexican, his mother Mexican, what else would the kid be??

Trump got there before you.

It will require a personal loss on their part—not a season of disfavor for the party—a matter of individual consequences suffered due to disdain for the citizen.

They can’t be that stupid. Apparently they don’t realize why Trump was so successful in his run. He did so well because the average Republican out here is disgusted with their arrogance with regard to them picking the candidates to run. Look at who they’ve picked in the past, Bob Dole, John McCain, Mitt Romney, etc. Then they wonder why they’ve lost.

If they try this, the Republican party will slump into oblivion for a long time, or there will be a kind of revolution. Let’s hope they are smarter than to be influenced by this complete jackass.

Nice timing, Kent, given the level of squealing by a few on this thread.

I don’t really believe the Rules Committee wants to commit suicide by changes to the nomination rules one week out, prior to the Convention.

The place will be stacked to the rafters with Cruz supporters, many who replaced delegates for Trump, but who surely won’t play ball with the UniParty in order to elect Hillary.

Trust is a rare commodity today, however, and total trust is extinct, so there is that factor.

Just do it, keep Trump from the nomination. Then we can watch the Suicide of the Republican Party and permanent one party rule by the Democrats until the country collapses finally.

Millions and millions will just stay home and not vote, it will the worst kind of Pyrrhic Victory but hey the GOPe will be happy but it will so short lasting.

I've said from the start of the GOPe shenanigan, If they deny Trump, the Republican Party will wind up being the third party.

I truly believe Trump could pull it out even WITH a different Republican nominee.
