Wasn’t he just saying the other day that there should not be a contested convention? Then again, this is a man who say or do anything to get elected.
I don’t think the folks here know the difference between a contested convention and a brokered convention. Go back and review your government please.
yes he said he was against a contested convention
That is a really strange and absurd thing to say. It’s like saying that a man who buys fire extinguishers for his house wants it to burn down.

Some of the article is misguided spin but well it is CFP

I have only heard him say he is against a brokered convention, and defined that as being the establishment “swooping” in at the last minute with a candidate that is not currently running such as Mitt. I am 100% for Trump, but I would honestly like to think I could vote for this guy if I have to, and feel ok about it. Does anyone have anything with him saying he was specifically against a CONTESTED convention prior to last night?
No...he said there should not be a brokered convention where the big wigs commandeer the election from the candidates.
A contested convention happens when none of the candidates get enough delegates before the election. A brokered convention is where they arrange the deck chairs on the Titanic 238 a way to steal the election from the top candidate and then they have cheated the voters and then I would never vote for whoever they foist upon us in that instance.
He was saying...and I agree...the viters would revolt if the GOPe would try that.
As a Cruz supporter who.would vite for Trump if he wins rhe nomination....I would never vote for a candidate in the brikered convention scenario.
Contested however...yes....
And so far I am managing to maintain my belief structure and support my candidate without calling Trump candidate’s supporters names or denigrating them or calling them all the things that people from both camps have been doing here on Free Republic.
