Its black outfits today for the mourners of the passing of the #NeverTrump movement. After last nights votes in the Rules Committee of the Republican Nartional Convention, the dream of a nominee with a name other than Trump is dead. James Arkin writs at RealClearPolitics:
A long-shot, last-ditch attempt by a few Republican delegates to prevent Donald Trump from securing the GOP nomination failed by an overwhelming margin late Thursday night.
Some anti-Trump delegates on the Republican National Convention Rules Committee sought a strategy to unbind convention delegates, allowing them to vote their conscience against Trump even if they were bound to him by primary results. Delegates loyal to Trump and the Republican National Committee fought back by proposing a counter-measure to clarify that all delegates are bound to vote based on the primary results.

aftee Trump picked Pence? ...Can we confirm Pence is not establishment?
RIP
It was also run over by a truck in Southern France.
Silver linings, and all that.
[...Can we confirm Pence is not establishment?]
Levin was praising the Pence choice. Don’t know if that is a good thing. Now I see reports about connections to Koch’s, support of TPP, and other things that are making me question him.
Plus, after last night’s events, we need someone tough and capable to take over if necessary.
The irony of all this is money. The money pissed away on Jeb’s pitiful effort, the money pissed away on Romney’s resurrection attempt, that expended by ever-hopeful Cruz supporters and the big bugaboo of “all Hillary’s money.”
The fact is that Donald Trump doesn’t need half or a trillion dollars like Hillary. Votes my friend. And the Muslims in this world have just given those votes to the next President (DJT).
No, it is so overwhelming that anyone who isn’t a mere scribbler will keep low, to show how low their numbers really are. If John Ellis Bush showed up at the convention, he would risk being booed. This ain’t ‘64.
I also noticed Cruz and Kasich dropped out after Indiana (deal made with Pence then)?
LOL! Can we even confirm that he will be the final pick after the ‘tragic incident’ in Nice, France yesterday? Which has been condemned in the STRONGEST possible terms. Boot shaken rhetoric.
They NEVER had a chance. All of the buzz about these quisling bastards came from the media practicing psy-ops on Trump followers. Now they can save the air fare and watch on TV with the biggest pompous ash of all Mittens Romney.
#nevertrumpers want Hillary. Most won’t admit it, some do.
To H*ll with them.
The Cheap Labor Express stooges will be openly backing Hillary next.
It died much the same way most #NeverTrumpers themselves are destined to, in the final accounting: failed, unmourned, and knowing no one ever really loved them anyway. ;)
Could be ‘68 dem riots. Just sayin’. :)
Can we confirm you are a Cruzbot?
The soiled diaper brigade was seen leaving the rules committee meeting sucking their thumbs and dragging their blankies behind them. :-)
I heard in the latest “head where the sun don’t shine” poll that Trump is down like 800%. We might as well vote for hildabama huh?
This election has certainly shown that the hysteria surrounding the Citizens United decision was unjustified, as is everything liberals scream about.
