Anti Trump Infiltrators are moving into delegate positions in states Donald Trump has; either won by winner take all,or by proportionally awarded by percentage. This is being orchestrated by GOP County Chairmen, primarily in and out of County conventions. Rules differ by State and County with some delegates being appointed and others elected, so one size does not fit all cases. Here's the rub: Although all delegates are bound to vote for the delegates on the FIRST ballot. After that they can vote to change convention Rules and vote for any candidate you want. If you do not have a copy of the Convention Rules covering the Permanent Rules for 2012 and 2014, print a cop out! on the last page, see "RULE NO.42 Temporary Rules". This is the last rule in the document. It reads: " Upon the adoption of the report of the Convention Committee on Rules and Order of Business, Rule Nos. 26-42 shall constitute the Standing Rules for this convention, and the TEMPORARY RULES FOR THE NEXT CONVENTION (2016)." Bold print and parenthesis mine. This sort of maneuver is not new, but the only defense against it can only be done on the local. county, state level-where you live. We must jump in to this delegate selection process now, even if you support Cruz, or we could after 10 ballots and total war over seating legitimate delegates, find we have President Kasich.This move is planned and implemented by the desperate GOP National Establishment. Thank God. As I write this I here Rush saying the same. Please take this seriously and give all you can to prevent this. Print out the Convention Rules now and see for your self.

Hint: THEY DON’T CARE.
No we will find we have Kasich as another in a long line of McCain, Rommey type looser
The GOPe moneymaker agreement with the Dem it for the GOP to be the political version of exhibition basketball “Washington Generals”
Wake up the DC GOP and Dems have a backslapping agreement...... and we are the designated losers.
... we have to destroy our Vichy/Quisling/Collaborator leader before we can really fight and defeat the Germans
They are going to screw him. He should break now and start the “America First” party.
Because that is an American idea, that will not end badly./sarc\ it’s more like a cummunist Russian idea, and those always ended well.
“The RNC/GOP better understand that there are voters out here like me that will wreak retribution on EVERY Republican down to dog catcher if they rig the nomination at the convention.”
The GOP/RNC is just fine with a Democrat POTUS. They steal half the money, and blame the Democrat POTUS for whatever goes wrong. Best deal in town!
I want the nominee to be Trump.
But, if all the horse trading results in someone other than Trump or Cruz, the two who have won the huge majority of delegates, then I’ll not support.
I’ll not support Kasich or any other the other candidates from the primary. I’ll not support any late addition.
There are only 2 who will receive my support and they will be Trump or Cruz.
Then why have primaries at all? This country was built on we the people, not we the party.
Tell that to unbound GOPe delegate, Curly Haugland. He says the party decides :(
The First and Second Amendment will be the first to go. And don't be surprised if the 3rd also comes into play so Hillarys brownshirts can keep a close eye on you and make sure you keep your mind right.
What these half-wit GOPeers fail to factor in is what The Donald is planning.
Trump has enormous political capital...and he can choose to spend it where and when he pleases.
He/s gotten this far despite their machinations....and for sure he/s not gonna let these half-baked establishment types take him down at the convention.
Good grief! Got it, Liz. Thx!
Holy cow. Isn’t it bad enough that the democrats cheat?
The Wigs party died and was replaced by the GOP..
The GOP party dies and get replaced by the Toupee party?
I agree....but there’s that Rule 40 the number 8.
The GOP doesn’t care. They and the Commies are cut from the same cloth. They fight to the death even if their historical win-loss record is dismal.

Trump should have vetted his delegates. Truth be known with the dem vote in open primaries at least 70% of gop do not want Trump. He will have a hard time getting 1237 on a second ballot at the convention. He won’t get many of Rubio’s or Kasich’s delegates for sure.
He also should have refrained from his personal vendettas. Gonna bite him hard.
Majority means 50%. Can Trump make it?
If the backstabbers steal the nomination, the dems will control everything. Let them have it and figure out the mess they created and the elitists enabled.
The rest of us should do our best to figure out how to survive a Doomsday scenario.
The First and Second Amendment will be the first to go. And don’t be surprised if the 3rd also comes into play so Hillarys brownshirts can keep a close eye on you and make sure you keep your mind right.
If Hitlery would become POTUS, her political enemies and opponents would feel the wrath of hell from her. The GOPe would be first on the list.
