If they cannot support the candidate who won the vote of the people, they should conscientiously object out of the conference and stay home

They must believe in mass suicide with instant reincarnation. May they all come back as banana slugs....which is close to what they are now. So this will help get us a Republican in 8 years after Hillary destroys what is left after Barry’s dung heap of a regime? Can we tolerate 16 straight years Marxism and socialism?

It would almost be happy to see that jerk lose all 50 states in the general and put a final pox on his family’s name

This is unbelievable

It doesn't even make any sense. If someone can't in good conscience as a delegate perform the duty he was delegated to do, the solution is simple. Withdraw and be replaced by an alternate.

“I am an unapologetic Cruz admirer but any “faithless delegate” that does not vote based on the primary results in their state should be removed and replaced with an alternate who will respect the will of the people.”

The ones considering not voting for Trump even though they are bound, are Cruz supporters. Cruz is not raising any objection to this subversion of the election process. What will you think of Cruz if this really happens?

It's true until someone proves it isn't true.

And no, I'm not kidding, I know how these Republicans think because I pay attention.

It's about preservation of capital (i.e. the status quo) for starters.

" Any delegate pledged to Trump that does not vote Trump should be in serious, serious trouble went they return home. "

This here ^^^.

Even Ronald Reagan disappointed from time to time. If Mr. Trump builds the wall, deports the illegals, stops terrorist Muslims coming into our country, negotiates better trade deals that start to bring industry back, and rebuilds our military, that is really enough. (Also, does not appoint some far-left liberal to the supreme court.) I can live with the fact that there will be things undone, and that he may do some few things I do not like — just as RR did. The fact RR made some mistakes did not change the fact that he was a great Governor and a great President, and Mr. Trump has the potential to be so, too.

I do hope, though that Mr. Trump decides to put an end to this gender identity nonsense. Your sex is defined by your plumbing, and you use the facilities designated for your biological sex, and you play on sports teams designated for your biological sex.

It was just an article giving some details on the GOP Republican Platform with the usual embellishments.

The eGOP has no idea the fire they are playing with. Imagine if not only do people not vote for the puppet eGOP candidate but vote a straight (D) ticket as punishment.

The Republican Party does not care about you, does not care if voters abandon, or if the Party dies. In fact, the elite welcome abandonment.

So Conservatives get over yourselves and quit playing the Hurt Feelings card. You Conservative voters are IRRELEVANT.

Leave! Now ... go! Be gone!

Yes, you reading this, go whine to your friends.

The best you can do for the elite is abandon, whine, cry, pout, and leave. THEY DO NOT WANT YOU! Get it?

The end game is Hillary winning. And you are irrelevant. Reality hurts.

And by the way,

a Delgate is an UnConstitutional.

And a modified vote is also UnConstitutional.

Look it up. It’s in plain text. Doh!
