THE FIX IS IN- GOP Leader Priebus Says He Won’t Turn Over Party to Trump if He Wins
Gateway Pundit ^ | 4-02-2016 | Jim Hoft

If Donald Trump wins the Republican presidential nomination this summer, Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus is vowing not to give the billionaire’s campaign control over the party leading up to the November election, according to a report in The New York Times.

The Times said Priebus “has also let it be known that he does not plan to let the Trump campaign take over the party apparatus if he captures the nomination.

“At an off-the-record happy hour with reporters last week, Mr. Priebus said clearly that, regardless of precedent, he would not be layered over by Mr. Trump’s loyalists, according to two people present.”

If true, Priebus’ decision w

I can’t say you are wrong. I will consider that.

I’m at a loss for words to express how I feel. I’ve just been told that my rights are rescinded. I’ve just been told that what I always thought about my nation is no longer true. I’ve just been told that pretty much the last right I had to exercise in this government, my vote, means, not little, but nothing. I’ve just been told that I am no longer a citizen but a subject.

We all know what our forefathers would be doing now. The question is, what will we do? I don’t know whether I want to know the answer or not. We’ll see if our corrupted government is right about it’s assumption that they have brainwashed our generations enough now to make this move with no worries as they seem to think.

What do I do now? I’ve supported this Party, protected this Party, defended this Party for decades. My preferred candidate is a member of this Party and swore an oath to it. They also swore an oath to him which they have proved themselves liars by standing back and letting Trump be attacked from every side and probably instigated much of it. What now? It’ll take me awhile I guess to even get my head around it.

“UNLESS, the people INSIST in some manner, or another.”

It’s my opinion that We the People just don’t want to face what has been evident for quite some time. The “some manner or other” is going to have to involve something more than keyboards and emoticons. I’m too old to even think about it. It seems that our younger generations have been sufficiently conditioned to believe that the barbarism of physical and forceful conflict is obsolete. Therefore we will sit and wait until the foreign invaders, who have no such qualms, use force to quell the last of our feeble resistance and that of our ineffectual leadership which will fold like the cheap empty suits that they are.

If Trump becomes president, he will revamp the entire RNC as well as the RULES. No more games. The people will have a say in who wins the party nomination

I think we only have 10-15 years left to take the country back - first by destroying the corrupt and evil government we now have and rebuilding with the Constitution as written.

We only have a few years left - look at all the young ignorant Bernie voters. There’s only a generation or two left that wasn’t dumbed down in public schools, that know how great this country once was and know the principles we were built on. Those Sanders supporters are willing to throw it all away, for a promise of something free - but not a free country.

Wanna bet Rancid Penis? I want to be there when Trump drop kicks you through the front doors of the RNC you meaching little Wisconsin ferret! Just how in the world does the RNC end up with this little turd from a state where Republicans are an endangered species?

The GOPe has got back their focus groups’s data and their private polls re the upcoming primaries to the California primary.

Their results show Trump winning enough delegates to become our candidate.

So this is a trial balloon to see how we would respond to the RNC/GOPe thugs making one of their golden boys the candidate.

This went across like a lead condom with holes in it instead of a trial balloon. It will not fly! We will not let it happen!

We need to let them know, we will not tolerate them cheating us out of our votes.

Well, technically, so what? No GOP party boss turns over the party to the president.

I could be wrong, but I/m thinking this whole delegate kerfuffle was contrived.....a PR ploy to get viewers to watch the Convention.

After all, who would willingly want to tune-in a bunch of Republicans?

We all knew Trump had the numbers from the get-go...and that Cruz was just a misguided wannabe, a loser who liked to hear the sound of his voice.

Betcha Trump will enter the convention like Cesar crossing the Rubicon...hell-bent for triumph.
