Talk grows of replacing Trump at GOP convention
Yahoo News ^ | June 8, 2016 | Jon Ward

Posted on 06/08/2016 9:48:06 PM PDT by detective

There is growing talk on the right of replacing Donald Trump, the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee for president, and even chatter about a possible alternative.

As Trump has floundered over the past week after questioning a federal judge’s impartiality because of his Mexican ancestry, Trump’s critics within the GOP have stepped up their efforts to thwart him. Some anti-Trump conservatives, who have tried for months to recruit an independent candidate, have begun looking more closely at attempting to persuade delegates at next month’s GOP convention to nominate someone other than Trump.

“There is a rapidly moving train toward the convention to try to obstruct it at the convention. Trump in the last 72 hours has given hope to people who think it’s now possible,” said Erick Erickson, a conservative radio talk show host and one of Trump’s most resolute critics.

“He’s starting to give everybody hope that he should be stopped at the convention,” Erickson said, though he cautioned that if Trump “cleans up his act then I think that hope will go away.”

The real issue is .. WHO APPOINTED THE JUDGE ..??

President Obama appointed the judge .. and what does that tell you .. it tells you that Obama will determine what the Judge does; because I don’t think Obama would appoint anyone unless he knew for sure what the person would do behind the bench.

Therefore, Obama very well could be driving the actions of this judge .. trying to get Trump discredited to the point that Hillary has a chance of winning the election.

Anybody that Obama appoints has already agreed to follow his instructions .. or they don’t get appointed.

Bill Clinton did the same thing.

What a bunch of cowardly, tyrannical idiots.

Go for it GOPe weasels since you think YOU are the only ones smart enough to know what is best for ‘we the people’ ....you’ll only piss off ‘a few’ of us:

Trump has 1,536 delegates and counting.

The Republican Party started the year with 17 bona fide candidates for President. This was more candidates than any major party in history.

Trump has more wins than any other Republican or Democrat candidate in this year’s race with 36. He also has more primary wins with 33 and leads all candidates in percent of overall wins and in percent of primary wins.

Trump received 13,406,108 votes to date in the elections according to www.thegreenpapers.com.

As a result Trump has more votes than any candidate in Republican history.

Trump shattered the previous record by 1.4 million votes — and that was with 17 candidates in the race

Talk grows of replacing Trump at GOP convention

Yes! I hear that talk has grown from 3 #NeverTrump assclowns discussing this absurd and asinine notion, to almost half a dozen!

By the time the GOP convention actually starts, I'm sure we can expect this topic to grow into a series discussion involving as many as 8 #NeverTrump assclowns!

I sure hope that Trump supporters will be numerous and passionate enough to quell this juggernaut of a dozen or so remaining GOP neo-con power brokers...

Vote Trump!

No he didn't, sluts!

Anyone with more than 3 brain cells understood that what Trump was questioning was the anchor baby judge's membership in the Mexican equivalent of the KKK...

Anyone can use google and learn everything they need to know about how criminal "LA RAZA" truly is...

Create six or seven thousand “super delegates” all paid to nominate the worst loser they can find, preferably a walking felon. ( yes, become just like the D’s ).

I don’t like trump but if the judge belongs to LaRaza it’s the judge that’s racist.

oh no, that wouldn’t be asking to split the Republican party or anything /s

because it would be easy for Trump to have people run locally for congressional seats with his ideas, either beat GOPe and Dem candidates, or affect the race, and teach the GOPe some respect.

This “growing talk” is growing only in the minds and publications of the enemedia, as they simply respin the doings of the gang of traitors lead by Kristol, Romney, Erickson, Hewitt, Beck and Levin.

Go right ahead, if they want Hillary as president and Dem majorities in Congress for the next 50 years, as well as make the GOP irrelevant forever.

This “growing talk” is growing only in the minds and publications of the enemedia, as they simply wishfully respin the doings of the gang of traitors lead by Kristol, Romney, Erickson, Hewitt, Beck and Levin, as part of the enemedia’s growing effort to nuke Trump anyway they can in order to help THEIR candidate, Crooked Hillary, win. Those elitist traitors and the enemedia would like nothing better than to see the will of the Republican electorate overturned at the GOP convention, as they know this would guarantee the election of the enemedia’s candidate, Crooked Hillary.

Naturally, none of the above is going to happen. The GOP convention will proceed without a hitch.

There’s nothing new in the enemedia attacking the Republican candidate in full-throated roar, while gently smoothing the waters for the Democrat, and we’re going to see a level of enemedia attacks on the GOP Presidential candidate like the world has never seen before. The enemedia and the Uniparty elites simply cannot allow Donald Trump to be elected as he’s going to upset every apple cart inside of D.C.

I wonder if these so called conservative Republicans realize that they have destroyed the republican party with their prognostications, pronouncements, and reprehensible behavior.
I have been a registered Republican since 1967, after this election I will be going to the registrars office to drop my affiliation as a Republican, and re-register as a Conservative Party member.
Unless some TEA partiers out there have a better suggestion that I can research.

Things are getting worse folks but Donald shall prevail. Has anyone notice Donald’s speech last night, regarding Ivanka. I get this strong impression that she is worried. She realize things are going to get so nasty. Somehow I see in her face a fear of him losing his life. I could be wrong but look at the video.

I think it is a mistake to minimize this, not because it is ill fated, but because the next six weeks are going to be full of histrionics, collusion, conspiracy. These d bags are pretty much capable of anything, and the only way to deprive them of the element surprise is to be 360 dilligent. Let nothing be unexpected from them ...
