Over the weekend, The Daily Wire had the opportunity to speak with Kendal Unruh, a member of the Colorado Republican delegation to the Republican National Convention. Unruh is also a member of the Rules Committee at the RNC, and a leading advocate for a vote that would unbind the delegates from the candidates to which their state primaries are pledged.
Unruh explained that "28 committee members are required to pass a minority report, which then goes to the convention floor for all delegates to vote on. It then requires a simple majority to pass." She added that she does "have the 28 votes required for the minority report," continuing, "Not everyone who is with us is willing to be public yet, due in part to the threats being made by Trump's campaign and the RNC itself."

Oh what lies and leaps you make. The never trump movement is not a pro-cruz movement. Sure many cruzers are a part of it, but it consists of many many other people. Dems, establishment, independents, etc. Again so blaming Cruz for everything. If you really want Trump to win, youll find someone else to blame everything that goes wrong. You cant expect a man who was treated and slandered like Cruz was to Gung ho jump on board and tell everyone to get behind the very man who lied and smeared him and viciously attacked his family. It come across as insincere at best and would be completely dishonest on Cruzs part and everyone would know it. AGAIN, cruzers wouldnt jump on the Trump Train just because cruz told them to anyways, so whats the point?
Sheesh. Quit whining about the party unity and suck it up. We TOLD you all this would happen MONTHS ago. You were warned that this make defeating Hillary harder, but folks just didnt care. You knew what you were getting, now deal with it. If you want unity, I suggest you start begging Trump to quit being divisive and start unifying. Hopefully, it appears hes been trying to head in that direction.
I hope he wins. I really do. But if he doesnt, it will be from his own actions and not the blame of others.
Your amnesia is breathtaking. Nobody forced Ted Cruz to have a day of campaign withdrawal press conference tantrum that green lighted his supporters to continue a divisive campaign against Trump. He choose to do that. They have continued for MONTHS invoking his name while they defacto campaign for Hillary. And “principled conservative” Cruz hasn’t lifted a finger to stop their campaign in support of Hillary.
Since you want to refight the primary:
How should 14 million Trump supporters feel about Ted Cruz PERSONALLY smearing them as “low info”?
How should Donald Trump feel about Rafael Cruz smearing his religious beliefs to Evangelical groups?
The primary was a two way brawl. Cruz gave exactly as good as he got. Get off your high horse.
Those are the facts. Stop blaming Trumpers for the post primary selfish and unpatriotic actions of Ted Cruz and his supporters.

“Gone would be most of the Bill of Rights and a sway that would keep the Democrats in power for decades.”
Last Days of Carthage all over again: poised to be the greatest power on the face of the Earth, nearly had the dominant competitor on the ropes, but — alas — political battles between rival parties in the capitol snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and flushed it all down the eternal sewer of history.
