Rule 40 was a temporary rule enacted in 2012, mainly to keep Ron Paul delegates from ruining the Romney coronation. The Convention Rules Committee will meet the week before the convention to set the rules for this convention and can do away with or change Rule 40 if they choose.
well Romney wrote the rules for the 2012 convention so I guess Trump will get to decide on the rules for the one this year
So can they um pass a rule that um someone with last name ‘Trump’ can in no way be on the ballot~
