Lee denounced the result in the room in front of the 112 committee members and a large contingent of reporters, and then spoke exclusively with Yahoo News for 15 minutes afterward in a room down the hall.
In the committee meeting, Lee did not concede that Trump — who is now all but certain to be named the GOP’s nominee next Wednesday night — will in fact be the party’s choice.
“I hope whoever the nominee is going to be this time will in fact win over the delegates,” Lee said. “But rules like this are not going to help that.”
He seemed to hint at the prospect of a demonstration on the floor of the convention, noting that “as we will see in a few days” the “angst” among many anti-Trump delegates or those with serious reservations about Trump “isn’t just going to go away.”
When I asked Lee if there would be an attempted revolt on the floor of the convention, he was evasive, likely because he needs to collect his thoughts and also perhaps keep Trump’s campaign off balance.

Well, to good part is - he’s putting the final seal on “another DC elitist” to marginalize - no appointments in the Trump WH for him.
We’re getting quite list of who’s who in the GOPe - they will be left out on the fringe - neutralized.
Best part?
They outed themselves...
He’s a suppurating pilonidal cyst, to be precise!
Yo predico 'backlash' contra Mike Lee.

“But Kendal Unruh, a Rules Committee member from Colorado who spearheaded the “conscience” effort, said a “floor fight is inevitable.”

John D. Lee of Mountain Meadows Massacre fame.

Smith, was a U.S. Senator from Oregon.[14]:812 US Representatives Morris K “Mo” Udall (D-AZ) and Stewart Udall (D-AZ) and their sons, Mark Udall (D-CO) and Senator Tom Udall (D-NM) are also descendants.[14]:804; 806–807 Stewart Udall served as Secretary of the Interior under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. See also the Lee-Hamblin family for a list of more of his noteworthy descendants.
Isn’t it part of Mormon belief that the US, Canada and Mexico be one country? NAU that Heidi Cruz helped write would have been great for them.
These are not principled politicians, they are out for their sugar daddy donors principal. Trump as president means we tax payers are not going to get stiffed via congressional legislation to repay the donors that buy politicians... These are self principal conservatives not principled... Bunch of fakes... This extends up and down the whole spectrum of 21 century so called conservatives... None of them would know how to break a sweat doing honest productive labor.
Too bad #nevertrump didn't feel that way about Obama.

Senator Lee, kindly shut the hell up and go back to work.
Or retire and get a real job.
Whatever; just go away.
Historians will call this the 2016 GOP MORMON REBELLION led by Mitt Romney, Mike Lee, and Glenn Beck.
The backlash will be against him.
I always thought that Mormonism was more similar to Islam than Christianity.
Reid?
Beck?
Romney?
