Sean Hannity Makes SHOCK Announcement [VIDEO]
tea party crusaders ^ | March 22nd, 2016 at 7:28 AM. | Commentary Editor

Echoing a sentiment shared by millions of Republican primary voters across the country, conservative Fox News host Sean Hannity essentially placed the GOP establishment on notice during his Wednesday program.

The popular host was speaking about the not-so-secret plan that the party elites intend to try and use a "brokered" convention to more or less steal the nomination away from front-running candidate Donald Trump should he fail to garner the required number of delegates beforehand.

Hannity then proceeded to voice his extreme displeasure with the idea, even suggesting he would abandon the party if it came to that.

Hannity asked rhetorically, “Are they going to cut their nose to spite their face?”

"You know, if they are going to be that self destructive, and if they're going to pout, and if they're going to pick up their little toys, and they're going to go home like a bunch of babies, they will destroy, there will be no Republican Party at the end of this," Hannity proclaimed.

"Because if they're successful, guess what? Cruz and Trump supporters are walking out," he stated. "And, I'm walking out with them."

This is a threat that the GOP establishment should take seriously, as Hannity remains fairly influential among the more conservative base of the party.

They made Trump possible. As for your tag line "Is Ted Cruz a US Citizen? Yeah? Then Shut Up and Vote for Him", not in a million years would I vote for that establishment suck up.

“Hannity [is] ... a member of NY’s Conservative Party.”

True, but absent a Conservative Party nominee, they all vote R, IF they vote. I have some family members who are registered as NYS “Conservative Party” but who vote R in general elections. One, at least, will probably stay home in November if Ted isn’t the nominee. But I think he’s pretty much an “outlier.”

And now Donald Trump is the leading (conservative) candidate?

And Donald Trump is the most conservative one of all

Runs a billion dollar business

Wants to stop illegal immigration

Wants to build the wall

Send home the Muslim refugees that Obama is letting in by the thousands

Stop further Muslim immigration, until we have this all figured out

Wants to lower taxes

Use tariffs to protect American jobs

Destroy ISIS

Work with and defend our allies

This is what conservatives used to believe in

Jindal said last year. “Trump is a shallow, unserious, substance-free, narcissistic egomaniac.”
Mad man that must be stopped. So what has changed?

Right. We all know how they changed the rules for Jeb to be sure Paul wouldn’t be the nomination. What’s to say they don’t change the rules to be sure Trump doesn’t succeed? I wouldn’t put anything past any of them including Ted Cruz. He’s certainly not above the establishment, he’s one of them.

Candidates from ‘brokered conventions’, of either party, typically do not do well in the General Election. There are a few exceptions, Lincoln for example, but usually they lose...............

I agree with Hannity that attempts to steal the nomination from Trump are wrong and wrong-headed. But I disagree in that I don't believe there will be much of a Republican party left come 2017 regardless of who the nominee is.

Hannity is a very likeable guy with a hard work ethic and drive. He is not however exceptionally smart or intelligent. He is really quite average at best. That is why I like him.

FWIW, the GOPe dismiss him as a blue collar idiot who is only where he is because of them. Much like what the GOPe thinks of us too. That is why I hate them.

So blinded by hate, a Cruznadian neglected to comprehend the article. Hannity said he will bolt if the GOPe shafts either Trump or cruz via a brokered convention. He’s sticking up for your guy, too.

Some people have yet to understand that the GOPe doesn’t really WANT to have the POTUS;. It is much easier for them to rape the American economy,and the American worker if they can blame it on a Democrat POTUS. Anyone with a lick of common sense knew McCain & Romney couldn’t win against ANY Democrat. Think about it. NOT rocket science

He already abandoned the party. He is a registered conservative.

That's right. Several FReepers have been calling Hannity a RINO for years now. I've never understood that. He hates the GOPe as much as FReepers do...

Or rather they do not want to be placed on the hot seat.
