GOP Sen Johnson: Trump Nomination Still ‘Reasonably Uncertain’
Breitbart ^ | 6/19/2016 | Pam Key

Posted on 06/19/2016 12:34:27 PM PDT by usafa92

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” when asked about his support for presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in light of talks over delegate revolts, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) said no one could predict the outcome of the GOP nomination process, adding, “I think things remain reasonably uncertain.” Johnson said,

“Nobody can really predict what’s going to be the outcome of our nomination process. I know there’s a number of movements afoot. I’m not part of that process. I have my own race here in Wisconsin, I’m going to concentrate on the areas of agreement, growing our economy, strengthening our military, defeating ISIS, securing our borders, making sure we have judges appointed to the supreme court so those are the issues, economic growth, create better opportunities for the American public for the folks in Wisconsin.”

He added, “It’s been my intention to support the Republican nominee. Again nobody can predict the outcome of this thing. I think things remain reasonably uncertain….I intend to support the Republican nominee and certainly support the areas of agreement, growing our economy, defeating ISIS, strengthening our border. No two people agree on everything. I’ll support the areas of agreement.”

It does matter to the Demos in the popular insider’s club who “runs” things. It doesn’t matter though to the failed gop-e.

1. They aren’t going to change the nominee. It’s Trump.

2. If they do, Trump screwed up big time.

3. If Trump screws up (he won’t you scared rabbits) I am still not letting Hillary in.

Why are you guys all acting like big cowards scared of the big bad GOPe?

Given what we know about the ruthless and corrupt Hillary and the GOPe, anyone who isn’t concerned is a fool.

Ron Johnson, Mia Love, Paul Ryan, Kelly Ayotte-—these people are absolute disappointments. They are all part of the reason Pres. Trump needs to clean house by destroying the illegal alien machine and taking away a large part of their money.

“Given what we know about the ruthless and corrupt Hillary and the GOPe, anyone who isn’t concerned is a fool.”

I didn’t say concerned I said scared.

And to make my point again, we know the forces of Hell are aligning in lock step to stop Trump.

Why is anyone surprised?

That is what we want because that means it is real and they are scared.

I think I have more faith in Trump than the Trump culties.

The Founding Fathers weren’t concerned the British may try to stop them.

Ron Johnson is leading Trump by I believe 7 ponts in the Marquette Wisconsin poll which also show his socialist rival Russ Finegold ahead of Johnson.

The issue that’s developing in this campaign is this;
If the Republican’s lose the presidency

To the candidate picked by the godless democrats whom ever the so called in name only democrat oarty select to run those agencies like the EPA IRS INS or healthcare .
Will Republican legislators give carte blache (play fast and loose) on funding the socialist schemes as they did with Obama ?

Feel free to react emotionally to lies and distortion if it makes you feel better.

Trump will be the nominee.

He is the best choice as it stands and is the best opportunity to keep Hillary, Biden or anyone they throw up out of the White House.

If Trump somehow screws up and let’s the GOPe stop him from being the nominee, I am still going to stop Hillary.

Maybe you can live with Hillary, but if so, you look just like the mirror image of the Never-Trump fools.

My advice, grow a spine and stop cowering in fear. Trump will be the nominee and he will beat Hillary.

(PS, Laz, I am sure one day you may actually have sex with a real woman - I.e. “ hit it” - but I do recommend you get married first).

Doesn't Trump already own the majority of delegates who wanted him in the first place?

People in Cleveland can want whatever they choose. I have never been to a Republican national convention. I have been to dozens of other Republican conventions from my BPOU up to the state.

Delegates own the convention, not special interests, not elitists, not William Kristol or Jeb Bush or Paul Ryan. For that matter, Trump doesn't own the convention..

It says right here that Trump and his VP will be giving the two most keynote addresses in Cleveland this year.

The GOPe is doing everything they can to undermine Trump short of outright endorsing Hillary. As predicted by yours truly last year. As of now Trump is the only GOP candidate I will vote for. If he’s loses I’m done with the GOP.

All I ask — pray for, even — is that you get a lingering, painful case of fatal pancreatic cancer.

I despise traitorous quislings like Ryan or Johnson more than Hillary. One expects Hillary to be in attack mode. Is it asking Ryan and Johnson too much if they can’t support Trump, then just STFU!

Although I can be persuaded to pray for your stomach cancer, I understand it is more painful and lingers longer.

“I still think most of this is noise and BS, but I swear if the GOP screws Trump I will vote for every Democrat on the ballot in every race. The GOP will need to be eradicated from the face of American politics.”

Are the GOPe trying to rile up conservatives to the point they will react, then label them extremists?

There is hope for you!
