Wait until the convention. Once Trump is officially declared the nominee, the rest will come on board.

Patience grasshopper. Donald Trump has an open of a run to his delegates as he can get now.

A lot of folks are still depressing the clutch and haven’t grabbed the mental shifter yet.

Uh, boy are you going to be surprised when Hillery!
is selected President/Queen.

Personally I think she will drop out possibly from a
convenient stroke. After all who wants to send a stroke
victim to prison....besides myself. I look for either a
Biden/Warren ticket or some rather unknown party flaks.

Not by way of defending the jaw-dropped GOPe; I say relax and give it a few days before freaking out. Our GOP Democrats have had it soft & cushy for 7 years and the “reserved” tags around the slop trough look to be rearranged a bit.

So now you know how many of us felt when Donald Trump said in a debate that he would not support the GOP nominee unless it was him. I will probably vote for Trump but I can fully understand why there are those who snear at him. He unfortunately created the divisions that he now must heal. And he’ll have to do that while he’s also trying to run against Hillary.

You just now getting pissed at the establishment and many GOP members? You must have some kind of remarkable patience.

I say I’m not surprised these guys have gone full weasel. Actually, I might have to apologize to weasels for that. These people have steadfastly refused to represent the voters who elected them. Time and again. Have you had any different sort of experience, because I haven’t.

I say God bless Donald Trump for flushing the bastards out.

Let’s vote for people who will actually do their job, wouldn’t that be refreshing?!

The last thing Trump needs is support from the RINO herd. He needs to keep his distance. They are lepers.

Sentiment understood. For perspective, read up on the Garfield and Harrison elections.

By the workings of the electoral college, you can win even if you don’t have the majority popular vote as in the Harrison election.

Delegates selected someone who wasn’t even running in the primaries in the Garfield election.

Rest assured that the GOPe and the also-rans followers are still set on scheming on how to derail what was and is clearly the will of voters.

Those "elected" officials who boldly claim they will not support Trump in November should identified, isolated, targeted and dealt with. Those pundit, the same. Those who have bitched and whined that they simply will not vote for Trump in November, or will sit it out, also should be recognized and shunned.

In the past, when my candidate did not triumph, I did not pitch a fit and declare an FU to the victors and their supporters. I simply did what was best for the country and supported the candidate the people of my party chose. Those who will not do the same are self declared enemies.

This RNC and the GOPe and the #NeverTrump crap has to stop...

A lot, well all of it in fact, is being shoved at us by the lying media, talking heads, Rush, Levin and others, I have to say that Hannity has been fair to all the candidates and let them come on his radio show, T.V. and had Town Halls for who ever wanted them, so he's ok in my book...

HILDERBEAST and obuma are behind this media blitz to drive us out, we know we are a power to be reckoned with, look where we got Trump to...16 candidates and they are gone, and he is still standing...

We just need to get tough, call your reps. your Senators, and let them know we are running this election and if they don't respect OUR wishes, they won't have a job anymore...

You know, if you don't re elect and go for the other person, they don't have a job...we need to start there also...

I will not re elect Mia Love or Mike Lee, I don't care if I have to write in my own name, I will do it...and that's where we have to get to...

GO.TRUMP.GO!!!

I will hold my nose and vote for Trump in the general, That is as long as he does not go soft and put a GOPe stooge in his VP slot.

However, I would point out that if the best argument you have FOR your candidate is that he is not the opposition, you have a really WEAK argument. Far better to champion the positions that will “sell” your candidate to conservatives. And calling them traitors does not help your cause.

The enemy of your enemy is your friend.

If Hillary is not your enemy then you are not a Republican, you are not a member of the NRA, and you are most definitely not a conservative. She has publicly declared all-of-the-above to her enemies.

Trump has led a hostile takeover of “their” party on behalf of the voters and GOP establishment types don’t like it. Many would be happier with Hillary winning. That way they can stay in power, use the threat of Hillary and a Democrat Congress to blackmail conservatives to vote for them, and blame the loss on Trump and his supporters. They like the status quo. They like power and the money it brings them. They don’t actually care about conservative issues, and really would love to have amnesty. Conservative issues are just a product they sell us at election time, enacting them is a secondary goal at best.

Well.... these same GOP establishment crapweasels were the ones demanding that The Donald take a pledge to support the nominee.

So I’d say that their treachery and hypocrisy is of an especially fine vintage and we should savor it, as we plot defenestrating every one of them.

This is not the time. Many who elected Republicans who disagree with Trump need to wait to the convention or beyond. Some Republicans don’t want to give their opponents fodder until they have to.

I understand what you’re saying. I’m a Cruz supporter, but no matter what reservation I have about Trump I am willing to vote for him because I believe he can’t be worse than Hillary or Sanders. He, at least, LOVES this country and wants to see it succeed. Hillary Clinton wants to destroy America. Bernie Sanders wants a socialist utopia - which only guarantees misery for EVERYONE.

I’m a Cruz supporter...but I’ll be voting for Trump in November.
