I said I wouldn’t back Donald Trump at the GOP convention. Then the threats began.
The Washington Post's PostEverything ^ | April 15, 2016 | Craig Dunn, Chairman, Howard County Republican Party

Posted on 04/17/2016 3:37:21 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The first email I opened had the subject line, “Trump Bull****.” The message was pretty simple: “You sorry mother******! I hope the worst for you and yours!”

The next email had the unambiguous subject line, “Traitor of the people and what was the Conservative party/now the conjoined twin of the Progressive left.” This missive carried a religious message: “God calls me to pray for my enemies and you are my enemy. Your thinking causes you to be a traitor to the citizenry. Imagine the disgrace U R.”

What was the heinous offense that I committed that made me, according to one person, “the biggest traitor since Benedict Arnold?”

There’s a price to pay for ignorance.

Dunn should have read the rules of the ground game BEFORE he spoke up.

It is hard to believe....since Trump supporters don’t engage in violence.

This guy sounds like Michelle Fields ver 2.0.

Some amount of this is always going on, in every direction.

This guy has let Democrats run all over him in Howard County for the past several years.

He’s part of the problem here.

Well Cruz apparently lost out also...

However, if Trump does not win a majority, and we need a second ballot to choose our nominee,
Indiana rules unbind the delegates and allow them to vote their consciences. In that case,
I’ll support John Kasich.

end snip

Only in cRuzworld, dear vet.

Over here in Realville we see the patterns of these GOPe folks. They can’t even come up with original accusations.

Isn’t running to the WaPo the very first thing you’d do if you were in his shoes ? I mean, seriously, isn’t that what Republicans do?

I said I would be a bundler for the Ted Cruz campaign. Then the spamming began.

“If Satan was one vote away from the nomination,” I replied, “I would consider voting for Trump if he was the only alternative.”

Woot, he must consider Cruz somewhat above Trump and Hitler.

It is hard to believe. I can’t imagine being threatened in a public forum like that. /s

these people don’t want to see the log in their own eye. They blame the rape on the victim — the robbery on the robbed. They whine and moan because the theft is exposed to the nation and they can’t take the heat. The sad thing is they don’t understand how cruz is just being used anf will be spit out like rotten milk by the gope. Then what would they be crying about. But this crap is just political BS.
