In the caucuses March 1, I was elected an alternate delegate to the Colorado State GOP convention, which on April 9 will select and instruct our delegates to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland this summer.
Accordingly, I have drawn up a resolution which is now being circulated which will forbid Colorado delegates to the national convention from voting for Donald Trump for president or vice president on any ballot. Such a resolution is necessary, because Trump has publically stated that his methods of operation include buying or renting the services of politicians for cash.
As the text of the resolution provides a succinct and forceful summary of the reasons why Donald Trump is acceptable as a Republican candidate for president, I thought I would share it with the readers of American Thinker. Here it is:
Resolution to Forbid Colorado Delegates from Voting for Donald Trump
Whereas Donald Trump is not a Republican; and
Whereas Donald Trump is a demagogue who is using fear, hate, and lies to assemble a mob in support of an agenda of socialist policy, unlimited government, and strongman rule; and
Whereas Donald Trump would destroy the Western alliance which is the basis of American security; and................

So, the eGOP pledge they coerced all candidates to sign was bogus! I think we all knew it.
If they trounce Trump we walk to third party!
This reeks of Democrap/eGOP Uniparty.
Wouldn’t it be “nice” if ANY national GROPe repubbie actually tried to fight the democrats this time?
I’m a little beyond fed up with all this “Sit down, shut up, and vote for who we tell you to” BS from the GOPe.
Would never have happened in the Colorado I grew up in. But the lefty governor would have never been elected either
someone should circulate that delegates may ONLY vote for Trump.
Resolution to Forbid Colorado Delegates from Voting for Donald Trump
Whereas Donald Trump is not a Republican; and
Whereas Donald Trump is a demagogue who is using fear, hate, and lies to assemble a mob in support of an agenda of socialist policy, unlimited government, and strongman rule; and
Whereas Donald Trump would destroy the Western alliance which is the basis of American security; and
Whereas Donald Trump would destroy the system of international trade which is the basis of American prosperity; and
Whereas Donald Trump would destroy the freedom of the press that is the basis of American liberty; and
Whereas Donald Trump would destroy the rule of law which is the basis of American civil society; and
Whereas Donald Trump has mocked those who risked their lives to fight for America when he avoided doing so; and
Whereas Donald Trump has acted as an apologist for Americas enemy Vladimir Putin and other brutal anti-American foreign tyrants; and
Whereas Donald Trump has set himself forth as an open exponent of lust, greed, and other vices antithetical to Judeo-Christian ethics and the moral fiber necessary to sustain a republic; and
Whereas Donald Trump has demonstrated that he has no respect for the truth, and
Whereas Donald Trump has defrauded thousands of ordinary Americans of their life savings; and
Whereas Donald Trump has, in the course of the present campaign, committed acts potential prosecutable as incitement to riot, a federal crime punishable by up to five years in prison; and
Whereas Donald Trump has knowingly acted to degrade the Republican presidential nominating process to a vile level that can only serve to drive people of talent and integrity out of the party and assist in the election of the partys opponents; and
Whereas the nomination of Donald Trump for president would insure a landslide defeat for the Republican Party nationwide in the fall, and deeply damage the Republican Party and the conservative movement for years, and possibly decades to come; and
Whereas a vote for Donald Trump by any member of the Colorado delegation to the Republican National Convention would dishonor and disgrace the Colorado Republican Party;
Therefore, be it resolved that:
The Colorado Republican Party forbids any of its delegates to the Republican National Convention to vote for Donald Trump for president or vice president on the first ballot or any other ballot, and
The Colorado Republican Party asks its delegates to national convention to pledge on their honor to do everything in their power to help secure the presidential nomination for someone other than Donald Trump.
Any candidate that supports this, even in silence, is a scumbag.
btw look at this Trump Delegate from Nevada. I would be very scared if I were a Trump supporter and this is what his delegate has to say. Not real strong for Trump if you ask me.

Any shenanigans by republicans or delegates and I won’t only vote 3rd party, I will vote 3rd party or not at all for ALL republican candidates and federal, state and local level.
If they want a uniparty, they can have it, but they won’t be sharing in the party.
Screw them all. I was finished with the GOP after Paul Ryan stepped in the speaker position and gave Obama everything he wanted.
Whereas Robert Zubrin has declared that the voters’ expressed will is immaterial to his political purposes, I move that he be expelled from the party by a committee of offended voters.
I propose a$$-over-teakettle style expulsion.
My thoughts too. The ENEMY is the dems dammit. State your policy and go after hildebeast and uncle bernie. No need to wait for the general season to get under way.
What will Colorado do when President Trump BANS ALL FEDERAL FUNDS from going to Colorado???
“Cruz will win.”
No way in Hell the eGOP will allow the man they hate to win. If they pull this stunt then they have the opportunity to elect who they want. They will go with Bush or Kasich.
If the GOP fought Democrats half as hard as they fight Trump obama AND clinton would never have been President.
If this is the list of reasons Trump is acceptable, I’d hate to see to other list.
Hey Jewbacca. How you been? Think about you from time to time since we haven’t heard from you lately. Hope all is well.
Wow. Is this legal?
Cruz will get the knife in the back same as Trump.
Only problem with Cruz is he’s to stupid to know it.
