According to documents provided to POLITICO, they have a majority of signatures from 9: Colorado, Washington state, Utah, Minnesota, Wyoming, Maine, Iowa, Virginia and Washington, D.C.

The group says former New Hampshire Sen. Gordon Humphrey has submitted the signatures to the convention secretary.

Amen. In the years ahead it might be fitting to see this Cruz creature reduced to a private law practice of ambulance chasing. I am so ashamed I ever supported him.

I flipped over to CSPAN a few times but all I saw was people giving short speeches.

And let each and every roll call voter proclaim his support for (or against) Trump, to be followed by over a thousand standing ovations (or booing).

It could be a highlight of the convention, votes for Trump and cheers going on and on and on.

And we could take names and end careers.

All this is doing is giving a minority of delegates something to get their juices flowing over a trumped up cause. Those leading this effort are using deception to hide their self-serving interests. Their fellow followers do not understand the true agenda of their leaders who would have them eating dog poo if it served their interests. Dog poo would really get their juices flowing. Ha! Ha!

Those who vote for this unbinding will never have the floor or recognition again.

This is giving me stomach pains. What are the chances Trump will not be the nominee?

Cruz and Rubio delegates obviously. They can go ahead and DIAF. I wouldn’t hand them Little Marco’s water bottle if they were on fire.

I am watching all the speakers in CSpan and the parade of speakers supporting Trump is going to make these people look foolish IMO.

CSpan puts up reporter tweets in its banner. They are talking about the crybabies.

the Never Trump rinos are at the wrong convention, they need to go to the libturd convention so they can legitimately push for their first choice, the hag.

I just now saw that. It says rules report at 4PM ET. Don’t know if that’s when it will be settled?

Yup, and we have the professional so-called “conservative” but actually open-borders globalist organizations like Red State, National Review, Townhall, etc, plus sore loser NeverTrumpers like Beck and Levin.
