Just a thought experiment here....

What if Shlafly had endorsed Bernie Sanders instead of Trump? Would it be o.k. for her conservative board to try and wrest control from her to re-establish the purpose for which the group was founded?

If your answer is “yes it would be o.k.” then really there is nothing immoral, illegal or unjust going on here. It is simply something you vehemently disagree with. That is o.k. but it isn’t “cheating” or “crooked”.

Like the Colorado results, when some legitimate action doesn’t go the way of the Trumpsters, the first thing they do is pout and cry like babies and say “No fair! You’re cheating! Whaaaa!”

Most normal people who are not sociopaths like Cruz people would think that the appropriate decision would be to resign their positions and start their own group, instead of breaking bylaws and purging dissidents from their ranks just so they can control Eagle Forum money.

False dilemma

Trump is the Republican front runner

Bernie Sanders is a Marxist wannabe democrat

But Schlafly would never endorse Sanders, not in ten thousand years. What’s your point?

What a ridiculous hypothetical strawman

You obviously have no idea who Schlafly is......what she has accomplished or how....
....or her strength of character

That would work if Trump were just like Sanders but that is not even close to reality. Those saying Trump is a lib have no real basis for saying so. Trumps positions are as conservative as any in the race. Yes he has supported democrats and democrat positions in the past but then so did Ronald Reagan, people change. Now if you want to say you don't believe Trump has changed that's ok but keep in mind that is just an opinion and is NOT supported by anything other than your own personal judgement.

What monkeys flew out of your posterior?

I guess there's NOTHING too low for a cruzer to stoop to, if it advances the cause of Das TedLeader.

No it would not be OK, because they violated the bylaws.

BTW, it was a personal endorsement, not an organizational one.

NOW the status quo is just fine with you folks!!!

IF they did it in the open and not behind closed doors in secret meetings.

How things are done is as important as why
