4-in-10 GOP insiders want to derail Trump at the convention
Politico ^ | June 10, 2016 | Steven Shepard

After a rocky start to his general-election campaign, a sizable number of GOP insiders want the party to change the rules to short-circuit Donald Trump’s nomination at the July national convention. Nearly four-in-10 Republican members of The POLITICO Caucus — a panel of activists, operatives and strategists in 10 key states — would like to see changes that could deny Trump the party’s nod after the presumptive nominee began the November campaign without a credible campaign structure, in addition to making a series of erratic and inflammatory comments. Among the comments was a recent suggestion that an American-born judge presiding over a civil suit in which he is a defendant can’t be impartial because of the judge’s Mexican heritage.

It will be interesting to see if the 2016 Convention Rules result in a dog fight at adoption.

Republican Party - an extinct American political party which was founded by the Abolitionist Movement in the 1850’s, and played a pivotal role in American politics before committing suicide in 2016.

To the degree the poll is accurate, that probably translates to 40% RINO's.

If one thinks about how our country is trending, with the help of the MSM, the education system, Hollywood and illegal immigration/sanctuary cities, etc., that percentage is downright depressing.

These GOP insiders are part of the communists liberal wing. Trump must clean out. The destruction of America was aided by this bunch in conjunction with King Obama and his communists liberal Administration. They have done a real job on America and we may never recover.

Trump for President.

Trump was 100% correct in attacking that “Hate America Judge!!! With each passing day..more true information is revealed about this “Race hating Judge” that DJT went after!!!

I would suggest that Paul Ryan get !00% behind Donald J. Trump...immediately!!! if not...then he should correctly resign from the Republican Party and join Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and the Democrat party!!!

Mr. Ryan and his inflated ego is cruising toward extinction in the Republican Party!!! The day after DJT is elected POTUS....Paul Ryan will find himself swimming in the sewer of obscurity . His only cohort will be failed, buffoon, Mitt Romney!!! Mr. Ryan is either with Mr. Trump, or against him!!!

I’ve been wondering about this because I know some people in my home state who are well placed in politics and one is a delegate. She was very much pro-Cruz and she has been unusually quiet since Cruz left the race.
