CLEVELAND — Republicans are bracing for the possibility of a drawn-out fight over Donald J. Trump’s nomination that could stretch into the convention next week, a spectacle party leaders are desperate to avoid.
As the party’s leadership convened in Cleveland on Wednesday for a series of organizational meetings, the possibility that the smoldering dissent over Mr. Trump could become a full-blown eruption on the convention floor was a top concern.

Continued from the article;
The Republican national chairman, Reince Priebus, was blunt about the need for party leaders to support Mr. Trump and defeat Hillary Clinton — even if the reasoning he offered appeared to be less than a full-throated endorsement.
“If we don’t stick together as a party and stop her, then the only alternative is to get comfortable with the phrase President Hillary Clinton,” Mr. Priebus said in remarks to party leaders.
This is not "news". It is not like Priebus has only recently seen the light
Meme: “Chaos at convention!”. Repeat, enforce, impose.
The party leaders have seen the light. There will be unity within and a freak show without. And that’s fine. The circus in the street will remind us of what we’re against and why this year is so important.
“If we don’t stick together as a party and stop her, then the only alternative is to get comfortable with the phrase President Hillary Clinton,” Mr. Priebus said in remarks to party leaders.”
3/4 of them are already comfortable with that phrase. They represent the same constituency as she does. And I’m not talking about the useful idiot masses.
Media pushing this....over and over and over...
someone needs to organize a Fart In to get these people to Lighten Up
What platforms are they going on, nothing about the ‘never Trumps’ crap the MSM is pushing...
I really believe that is who is fueling this whole thing, they have nothing else to talk about, they can't talk about Comey; Lynch; emails; etc. etc. Hillary won't allow it...
They can't talk to much about Bernie, sounds like most of his supporters are going to Jill Stein...not Hillary... ;0)
Stir the pot, you effing pukes.
People love this topic.
Never Trumpers seem to love dreaming and fantasizing something will happen where they vote out Trump, when of course it won’t happen and Trump will be the nominee.
The Trump or Die Cultists seem to love being outraged at any thought of it even though it is isn’t going to happen. It’s like they need an outrage fix. I think some subconsciously want this to happen so they can be perpetually outraged.
Anyone hear of any plans (on the part of BLM et al.) to shut down highways never Cleveland?
“Media pushing this....over and over and over...”
It sells. It gets views.
If they want a fight, Trump will give them one! On this issue, he cannot afford to show any weakness.
You stop it.
I’m already on board. It’s the fossils in the GOPe that need to get on the train and stop worrying about cashing lobbyist checks.
Yeah more slimes wishful thinking.
I know, FRiend, but that kind of talk gets us nowhere in the fall. We have to make nice and win the White House, plus keep both houses of Congress and increase the margins. Now if there are some nice primaries to chew on, like Ryno’s, that’s where it still makes a positive difference to be fussy.
Mitch can demonstrate how to retract his head so it is completely protected by his hard outer shell.
That is exactly it.
Work diligently dropping hints, and [psst- 'dat trump he be raciss].
That comes right straight from the horse's donkeys' asses.
Just ask Loretta, though of course she wouldn't remember, and if anyone else was asked they'd squirm away from any question of that meme being a behind-the-scenes 0Bama Admin plan (back the agitators, encourage them to play the 'race card' hot and heavy, in any and every way possible), don't let off for one second guilt-tripping white people over 'social injustice', continually rewind and replay the theme that all white people are 'privileged' and are racists, (unless you be down with the struggle against "the system", then if white you B only a little bit racisss) while of course black people are not, or if they are it's still the fault of white oppressors that black racists are black racists, no matter what.
One thing I will say here that should be remembered by all -- there are a LOT OF black Americans who see right through the B.S. and are not fooled by Obama (much) and are fooled a lot less by BLM social justice agitators. They know enough truth of matters themselves but are being subjected to gas-lighting techniques, as are we all...
Newt the tubby guy has bought into that program recently, echoing one of the Hildabeast's latest flopdowns (show of cards). What would either of those entitled, and actually privileged old fools know about the rest of us?
Does the Donkey Party have anything else to bring to the table this election cycle? What's that I hear [from off in a distance]? How qualified she is??? That joke is not funny, not funny at all. She's qualified (well practiced and moderately successful) at lying, at obfuscation, at stringing out any investigation which threatens bringing focus upon truths inconvenient to herself. She has no conscience. Truth is not in her. Not at all. She's devious. There's no "there" there --- nothing other than her own quest for power, and her own sense of entitlement. In other words, she is a 100%, 360° totally tubular anal vent 1st class bitch on wheels. That much has become more painfully obvious even to past supporters.
Inside or outside?
Yes.
yep- they see Trump moving north in the polls and clinton moving south...this is the contingency plan...
if hillary was smashing Trump in the polls right now do you really think we would see this type of article from the criminal liberal media??
