All three candidates are hedging on that pledge. Priebus can not just single out Trump, or the posters on this site.
The RNC is EXTREMELY DESPERATE and grasping at straws.
They know Trump is going to win, and now they are looking for their EXCUSE to hijack the 2016 Primaries from the Will of the Republican Voters.
When they say you better pick a better candidate or we will select it for you... Then you know our Republic is very close to collapsing.
They keep trying to lie to the public and pretend it’s normal to VOID the WILL of the Republican voter.
What help is Trump getting now ? ZERO !
Comments to the Rinse and his RNC are not too kind. LOL
Why let it die? Because it deserves to die.
Any RNC that abandons the will of the people will get no more money or support from those people.
so treat someone who signed a pledge like crap and then threaten them if they leave.
It’s lie a husband who batters his wife
let what die, that the establishment has been against trump and now threatens him after the way he has been treated.
Trump is to blame for destroying what little remained of Reaganism, mostly because the GOP didn’t defend it. But I think his chaotic mish-mash of native insanity, libertarianism and Democrat ideas may have forced many GOPers to actually define their ideas. So now perhaps the GOP will come back as a real party with real ideas.
could you tell me please what is a lie?
there are a few here who feel the same
When they have million dollar +donors lined up, they really don’t care about us peons
They can die
I didn’t leave the republican party, the party left me
Good evening.
The ability to control the rules committee, is the ability to select a candidate.
Rense Prius is playing with fire.
5.56mm
Then that goes for Cruz and Kasich too, right?
Why hasnt Preibus reigned in on these Republican office holders who have publicly disparaged the frontrunner and made it clear they will not support him?
Ben Sasse comes to mind and Lindsey Graham.
This would never happen in the Democrat partysuch statements would result in no financial support for any election.
Ben Sasse, a sitting GOP Senator, has threatened numerous time to support a “constitutional conservative” 3rd party candidate against Trump. Has he been sanctioned by the RNC?
Rinse is playing with fire here. Trump pushing the GOP destruct button on his phone will send the GOP straight to the dust bin of history. RIP GOP.
Something Priebus said the other day doesn’t makes sense as I think back on it.
He said, if a candidate didn’t support the nominee they would not have access to the RNC “machine”, including databases, GOTV software, etc.
Well, if he isn’t going to be the nominee, what use would he have for that stuff? Unless he was going to run 3rd party in which case it goes without saying that the RNC wouldn’t provide assistance.
His treat or leverage just doesn’t make sense to me.
look at the comments; 100% negative towards Rinse and the GOPeeeee
VOTE TRUMP!!!
Article II, Section 1, Clause 2: Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
12th Amendment: The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; ..."
So somebody please help me think of something nice to say about Mr. Priebus and the political parties.
that is a rather stupid announcement
the pledge breaking will occur after the nomination is stolen. all the needed records are already available to the various campaigns.
