RNC chief Reince Priebus threatened John Kasich, Ted Cruz and Jeb Bush today on “Face the Nation” after their refusal to endorse record-setting GOP nominee Donald Trump.
Priebus said the RNC may block future runs by the Republican candidates who used tools from the RNC, then lied and refused to endorse the GOP presidential nominee.
Bush, Kasich and Cruz have yet to endorse Donald Trump.
The pro-Hillary website Redstate reported:
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus during an appearance on Sunday’s edition CBS’ “Face the Nation,” said that it’s time for Donald Trump’s former primary challengers to support his campaign. Priebus even suggested there could be trouble for them in 2020 or 2024 if they don’t:
Those people need to get on board. And if they’re thinking they’re going to run again someday, I think that we’re going to evaluate the process – of the nomination process and I don’t think it’s going to be that easy for them.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush have still not yet endorsed Trump. And nobody really thinks they will.
When asked explicitly whether that meant there would be penalties for those 2016 Republican hopefuls who have not endorsed Trump if they run again in 2020 or 2024, Priebus said nothing has been decided but that it’s something the party will look at.
All 17 of the major Republican candidates signed a so-called “loyalty pledge” last summer stating that they would support the eventual Republican nominee “regardless of whom it is.” The pledge was the result of Trump suggesting that if the GOP didn’t play “fair” he might run as a third party.

Don’t worry Reince. WE the voters will take care of these turncoats should they ever attempt to “live the dream” again.
As if any 3 has a future anywhere.
Those, who claim to be “conservatives” or republicans might as well just come out and say they will be voting for Clinton. Every last one of those bastard repubs needs to be voted OUT, that is exactly where my votes will be going, to their opponents.

Ha, ha... Gotta love that....
>>Dont worry Reince. WE the voters will take care of these turncoats should they ever attempt to live the dream again.
Worry. The three Progressive Republicans are counting on 4 years of Hillary producing a “hold your nose and vote” mindset and they are probably right. Lock them out now!
Bring them to heel! Seriously, Reince should do everything he can to get them to back our nominee.
I guess Lindsey Graham is to irrelevant to threaten.
Jeb should be immediately blocked after his sycophantic performance at the NeverTrump (aka Emmy Awards) show last night.
The Cheap Labor Express Republicans all need to be purged
But he hasn’t gone after the big guys, GHWB and GWB.
They haven’t endorsed illary, yet.
JEBthro is finished everywhere.
Tell these bastards don’t even bother thinking of running again cause the voters won’t be there for them!
I wish I knew the last year I watched an Emmy award presentation. Have no idea when it was
It used to be that the presidential nominee changed or could change the party chairmanship upon nomination. Trump didn’t do that this year: figured I guess that it would have upset the elites even more. Goldwater replaced William E. Miller, his running mate, with Dean Burch. Can anyone else think of a chairmanship that was changed after the nominee was chosen?
How can he ever talk of honor again and keep a straight face? He's found a new place in the dictionary - under "dastard".....
