No, you don't get it.

The legal mechanism that allows Trump to be on the general election ballots in all 50 states as the Republican candidate for POTUS is being formally nominated by the Republican Party at their national convention. Without that formal nomination, state laws will not allow Trump's name on the ballots.

The national delegation is in charge at the convention. Not you. Not me. Not the rest of the voting public. Not the GOPe. Not the media. Not Congress. Not the judicial system. The delegates have all of the authority. They vote on the rules that govern the convention and they nominate a candidate for POTUS.

You can piss and moan all you want because you don't like what I'm telling you, but it ain't gonna change squat.

As for shennanigans, I said there won't be any. So stop tryin' to pick a fight.

Really? Have there not already been shenanigans involving these folks in the Republican party throughout the primaries?

You suggest there could be shenanigans at the convention but there won't be? Funny stuff. You mean that's not really a threat towards Trump but it could be. ~

Btw, how do you define shenanigans? Would that be attempting to swindle a historic election and go against the will of the people?

There won’t be any shenannigans, but if the delegates wanted shennanigans, they’d have full authority to commence shennanigans. As for shennanigans, I said there won't be any.

You seem to have stepped out or evaded some questions. Lets try it again.

Have there not already been shenanigans involving these folks in the Republican party throughout the primaries?

Are you warning everyone the corrupt in the party still hold the power even through they don't hold the winning hand? No one buys that.

The above comment about more "Schannicagans" as you call them sound like a threat Tex, like they have some kind of ace in the hole or bargaining chip here. They lost Tex. They are the losers and Trump is the new boss.

You suggest there could be shenanigans at the convention but then turn around and say, "But there won't be"? You mean that's not really a threat towards Trump but it could be? Sounds like wishful thinking Tex.

Is this what your secretly hoping for? Do you not think America has had enough of of these corrupt delegate/caucus corruption and wide spread collusion in this election?

Btw, how do you define shenanigans? Would that be attempting to swindle a historic national election and go against the will of the people?
