Agree. They are mostly Cruz types.

Have they gone mad or are they all in Hillary’s pocket?

[Good, but wrong order of reasons...]

To sum it up, we have a lot of repenting to do for kowtowing to the GOP Establishment instead of standing for our convictions. Hopefully there are enough freedom-loving patriots who will see TRUMP through.

You are onto it as they fear their cash for votes will be cut off. They fear being exposed for the damn crooks they really are. There is no way that honest Rep politicians could sit idly by with majorities in both Houses if they were not on the grease.

“It’s the Washington Post, for gosh sakes, they are taking every opportunity to hit Trump.”

Precisely.

Nothing more than unsubstantiated rumors that are being put out there by the W. Post. It’s a nothing burger with the objective of keeping the right divided.

I predict that Mr. Trump will be the nominee with no significant hurdles at the convention.

Watch Fox News right now.
The GOP elites have not given up trying to dump Trump.
They mean to make good on their pronouncements that Trump will never be the nominee.
They are using the skewed polling data as their latest excuse.
Cleveland could be the start of CW2

Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

All it would take is for the rules committee to vote to unbind the delegates. Then, the proposed rule change is voted on by the delegates which can vote on rules any way they please.

Suicide. But, the GOP is not known as the party of stupid for nothing.

In fact, I can see them trying this even if they know it doesn’t have the votes. Thinking being they can say they tried to stop Trump for the good of the party, but failed.

Trump will continue taking flak from both sides at least until the convention. The more the GOP can drive down his polls, the more likely they will try.

Doesn’t matter what they say. They only have so much push at the convention. Mr. Trump will not have an issue when the time comes for the first vote regardless of what they attempt, IMO.

I actually hope they try something this stupid so we can finally get the dance underway for who really runs this country. Those who are currently convinced that they are in charge will be in for a big surprise.

I’m glad to see this article from the Compost. Shows they’re really worried about Trump.

“I’ll be glad to see the Republican convention come and go just so I don’t have to read any more of these crack pot articles.”

Did you read the headline? DOZENS of delegates .... DOZENS! That’s 24! Twenty-four delegates are raising hell! Trump only has 1,500. Those 24 are going to do incalculable damage!

(sarcasm off)

I can’t wait to see the show the Sanders and BLM scum put on during the conventions.

Moreover, I don’t believe comrade Bernie is going to go quietly into that good night. He might eventually praise the pig in a pantsuit, but his lack of enthusiasm for Clinton is not going unnoticed.

I think the Rs, with the exception of *maybe* the Bushes, are going to come around during the convention and we’ll have all of that party unity BS. Hell, if I were in charge, I’d *want* to make us look disorganized heading into the convention ... let the little dweebs in the press have their little word orgies in their mostly unread newspapers ... they’ll look like asses afterwards. It’ll be funny to watch them scurry for some other nonsense narrative when Queen Hillary starts her descent in the polls after the conventions.

Those of us who are going to vote for TRUMP are going to VOTE FOR TRUMP.
The only person who could even have a chance at getting our vote over Donald Trump is Ronald Reagan, and he’s dead.

Awe, ain’t that sweet. They’re just trying to save all of us, from our mistake. They know best after all. More losers from the Gop.

Yep.

If Trump had done none of those things, perhaps we would read that the cuckservatives were angered by his refusal to give them anything substantive to be angry about.

All is pretext. They do not want a patriot in the White House.

Congress is filled to overflowing with globalist traitors.
