” Convention is only chance to stop Trump”

If it gets to that point, it will mean they are trying to steal the nomination from Trump who will have the most delegates and received the most votes. So if not Trump, who could they possibly select that won’t blow up the party and give the election to Hillary?

Lindsey Graham said yesterday, if Trump has most delegates, they will make him nominee. Even if not 1237.

Convention might actually be worth watching for the first time in my life. Stealing the nomination from Trump at the convention will have just one result. President Hillary. But they don't care. They'd rather see Hillary win than Trump...after all Hillary's a member of their club.

The convention will not matter. Trump will get over the delegates needed.

K Street, globalists, investment class, people who live off the labor and money of others. You know, our REAL party base.

Politico is a moderate Center Left Establishment RAG.
They like the media in general want a melt down to occur, I don't see it happening, Trump will be the nominee. He who has the most votes wins. And Trump could put California in play in the general election. People have had it with Democrats and Republicans.
Or it will be GOTTERDAMMERUNG for the Republican Party as we know it now.
Which might be good!

Let’s change the narrative. Why would we want to stop donald trump? any articles like this about Obama when he ran?
To: pgkdan
The only problem with that is that Clinton may not last the full term if her health is as bad as some say. That means a vote for Clinton is really a vote for her VP. That's the true danger of the GOPe convention strategy.

Good Point the Stop Trump movement only adds to the mystique of going with TRUMP.
I am angry, I want TRUMP, I want a Wall, and Muslim Immigration stopped.
Tax reform for business and Trump will get that done.

The only people in line to have a brokered convention are the dems because of Hillary winning the primaries.
The GOPe are just making people mad with these antics and more people will coalesces behind Trump to stick it to the GOPe. No, I do not support Trump.
To: VanDeKoik
Amen! Sounds like the tactics of the other party, doesn’t it - complete and utter disregard for the will of the voters.
My message to the GOP if you should choose to go that route: Bring a hammer and nails; you’ll need ‘em to nail that coffin shut.

I don’t see how we are going to get out of this predicament. Non-Trumpers won’t vote for Trump and Trumpers won’t vote for the establishment candidate. Both sides seem dug in.

Exactly...If they do what is feared, it would, IMO, cause creation of another party...A real party...Unlike the T.E.A. Party that attempted to begin...

You mean when actual votes dont work out in your favor?Two ways to look at that. The will of the people be damned is one.
The people are wrong and we as their elected representatives are obligated to act in their best interest by denying them what they want is the other.
Which one is it this time?
