No.
If the convention nominates another candidate, I’m staying home in November.
The GOP establishment has a death wish. If they succeed, they will lose everything.
Its gonna be fun to watch them crash and burn.
I want these people to be honest, and advertise themselves as what they REALLY are:
Republicans for Hillary
That is the ONLY conclusion that can be reached. These people are WORSE than Republicans for Johnson - who gave us the “Great Society” and the 1965 Immigration Act on a silver platter - because we have had history to learn from over the last 50 years. We (and they) KNOW FOR A FACT that the Dems despise this country’s ideals and only want power...and here they come to give it to them AGAIN.
These people are TRAITORS. Trump may not be the ideal candidate for most people, but he’s better than Hillary on 90% of the issues out there, and certainly no worse than her on the other 10% (and I know that when it actually comes time to make policy, that 10% will disappear).
Either Trump or Hillary will be the next POTUS. DECIDE WHICH YOU WOULD PREFER - and be honest about it. None of this being coy crap - SAY WHOM YOU PREFER, Hillary or Trump.
This year my candidate was Cruz, but I really liked what I was reading about Trump so I started listening and the more I listened the more I liked, But, all along I was prepared to vote for whoever won the nomination as I will never ever vote for Hillary.
However, if this happens, I will not vote for whoever the GOPe puts in -- and I will officially become an Independent and will only vote for candidates that I agree with going forward. No more voting for the lesser evil.
And after this primary season, even if Trump is the nominee the GOP will never ever get another penny from me, from now on I will donate to individuals only.
Somebody's having fun at our expense with this nonsense.
GOP STANDS FOR GOOD FOR NOTHING PRICKS
That's all I needed to see that this is utter BS. The Compost has been publishing stories that are 500% cr*p (a 5-fold increase on the WaPo cr*p-o-meter) ever since Trump booted them. Their whining and panty-twisting is a sight to behold!
about 1k delegates are BOUND, I thought on the first ballot
Republican Party - an extinct American political party which was founded by the Abolitionist Movement in the 1850’s, and played a key role in American politics before committing suicide in 2016.
This is all you need to know:
The Horn is published by Kevin Hart, an award-winning media specialist and former communications executive with President George H. W. Bush’s Points of Light Foundation.
One of these guys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1Qt6a-vaNM
IF they have twelve I would be surprised. The only reason that the WaPo would be engaging in this kind of speculation is to destroy the movement that is Trump
IF Cruz or Ryan or anyone else actually accepts a nomination because of this, I will NEVER vote republican again ever
How much $$ did each delegate get to change their initial vote?
This is outrageous and very unloyal to the voters of their particular state.
Nothing more reliable that the Horn News I guess.
Nothing more reliable that the Horn News I guess.
**Tell us what you think! Would you support another GOP candidate if Trump was dropped at the Republican National Convention? **
No, another candidate would lose to Hillary. Don’t these delegates realize what they are doing?
1000?? It was only 400 according to WaPo this morning...
13,896,879 voted for Trump in the primaries.
Who else can the Convention put up that would win the general election WITHOUT those 13,896,879 disenfranchised Trump supporters?
Romney lost with 4 million disaffected voters.

These attempts at coups prove that the GOP establishment are more interesting in retaining the status quo than in electing a candidate for the betterment of the country.
The GOP establishment and those attaching themselves to it are the problem, not the solution.
If the GOP succeeds in this I will go scorched earth on them. Zero dollars to GOP fundraising. Zero votes for the usurper candidates. I'll probably vote for Gary Johnson (who I don't like much) for POTUS.
And, of course, continue lobbying SiriusXM to dump Beck and supporting whoever opposes Ted Cruz in the Texas primary race.
I suspect many million other rank-and-file GOP primary season participants feel the same.
No reason to worry about that. They are going to do what they are going to do. What we need to do is concentrate on what we are going to do. Play our game, not theirs.
Well argued, there is very little, if any, wiggle room, for those who attack Trump as being too harsh on ethnic issues. All office holders must take an oath to support the Constitution, and the Constitution is very clear, with respect to its American First intent. Consider the Preamble:
We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
"The people" to define the purpose & function of the Constitution, were beyond any question, the people of the specific ratifying States, in 1787 to 1791. "Justice" can sometimes be rather an abstract concept, but "domestic tranquility," obviously is our domestic tranquility, not the promotion of anything abroad, or calling for meddling with other peoples lives. (Nor will reviewing the specific grants of power that follow, suggest any non-American focus or purpose for either.)
The "common defence," both from the obvious context, as well as the specific grants of function that follow, is clearly the common protection of the people of the 13 sovereign States that ratified; as, indeed, the "general Welfare" is that generally beneficial of those same specific peoples.
Finally, with unmistakable clarity, is the language that identifies who precisely are to be the beneficiaries of the secured "Blessings of Liberty": The Founders & their "posterity": the lineal descendants of those specific peoples; the descendants of the Founders, down through the generations.
Is anything in this interpretation, even arguable? Does this statement of intent waffle in anyway, as an indication of whose interest is to be favored on any Constitutional question that involves Americans on the one hand, and any other people under the sun? Is there anything in this that suggests a duty to allow any other people a right--that is a Constitutional right to demand entrance into America; or to demand anything from the American Government under a claim of legal or moral right?
Now granted, a great many of us, our particular selves included, trace our ancestry to those who came in after the Constitutional Union was established. Our personal rights of participation grow out of acceptance into those communities Blessed with that secured Liberty in the various States. They do not, by anything in the Constitution, amount to a departure from the Constitutional purpose or concept. Nor can we, if in office, claim a moral right to alter the intent & functional purpose, we have sworn to uphold, on our own initiative.
Those Republicans, like Speaker Ryan, who wring their hands over the public media, over Donald Trump's sometimes very blunt ways of deciding between alternatives, will try to cloud these points. They cannot rebuff them if we stick to the obvious. If you honor the Constitutional intent, in all things relating to the behavior of the American Government, you must put America & the Americans first.
When challenged, always return to the basic!
One final point. Nothing, in what we have written, will prevent someone who feels a calling to preach their Faith to the people of some other land; or to become a medical missionary in some other land; or to pursue any particular calling or interest anywhere on earth; from doing so. What it does do is define what one can do with respect to the resources, functional duties and policy imperatives in applying the allocated powers and resources entrusted to the Government of the Unites States. That is our point. And properly argued, it is the key to victory!

I suspected something awhile ago when the Cruz peeps got suddenly quiet!
