This isn't just a complaint by those not thrilled with Trump, is it?

The “Republicans” have lost their soul. They no longer are a party of the people but of big money and globalists. It is time for a new party the “American Party”.

[During the RNC’s Rules Committee meeting, grassroots conservatives were crushed by the establishment.]

The voice of the people spoke at the RNC’s Rules Committee. We are taking America back.

Conservatives were crushed? Does he mean “conservatives” like William Kristol and Mitt Romney? Or is he talking about JEB! Bush?

Those not thrilled with Trump are trying to thwart the will of the people. They’re scum.

That is BS

Reactionaries want to transform the Republican party much as Obama has created a liberal hell for the Democrats. Zealotry is or was disdained

A small portion of conservatives who were trying to do the dirty work
of Cruz, while Cruz remained in the shadows is a more accurate
description.

Cruz’s 15 minutes of fame is just about up.

A small group of antagonists trying to make up their own rules. Didn’t work.

Amen.

Bush and Kasich stated in every debate that they were conservative. Kasich even said repeatedly that he was going to: ‘finish the border’ (hint, the border was finished in the 1,800’s...)

Liberal putzes both!

The writer is referring to such anti-globalist conservatives like, Cruz, Romney, Bush II, Yeb Bush, FoamBoy Rubio, Kasich, Glenn Beck.

Trump has created a third party called the Republican Party.

Insurrection at a convention isn’t always such a good thing. (Remember what devolved power looked like at the Dem convention in 1972? Chaotic! McGovern had to make his acceptance speech in the wee hours.) Discipline is called for now. We have a good ticket and a good platform, mostly. The Trump team is in control. We need unity and purpose to defeat Lying Crooked Hillary.

Republicans behaving like Democrats. I sure hope Trump wins in November. Maybe the GOPe will realize that we aren’t as stupid as Democrats and we won’t just ‘stay on the plantation’ and acquiesce to their control. Being a Republican used to mean something. Those at the head of the Party believe in their own complete control......never mind all the freedoms that we used to have......and want to have again.

“...grassroots conservatives...”

GOPE RINO spin. The real grass roots conservatives are WE THE PEOPLE who have voted for Trump.

Building the wall and securing the borders; bringing back our manufacturing and fixing the trade imbalance; and strongly backing our second amendment rights is Trump’s platform and the people behind him are:

the real and true grassroots conservatives. The others are phony.
