Barring a miracle? No No No. Expect a Miracle, and they won't get their RINO... there is still time. Time for money time for phone calls time for knocking on doors time for making a miracle.
The convention is almost exactly 20 weeks away - we are but on the shores of the Delaware today. Believe, just believe! Reach down deep and remember - how America was born - who gave it birth - the kind of courage and determination it took.
And if you are tired, maybe, and disillusioned because you've been through this before - there are plenty of young ones - young ones in town with a mission - young ones that get no respect. We can do this. We can pick up the slack for you old guys. But you have to believe. You have to believe.
We can do this, we can.

ps Did you know Lincoln was nominated as the Republican candidate through a brokered convention? The favorite at the time was William H. Seward. Lincoln was regarded as a dark horse contender with no chance of victory. However, he won the nomination on the third ballot, and as we all know, went on to win the presidency that November.
Other Republican pr...esidents who were nominated at a brokered convention include: Rutherford Hayes (7th ballot) James Garfield (36th ballot!)Warning Harding (10th ballot) Dwight D. Eisenhower (2nd ballot)
The closest we have come to a brokered convention in modern times was in 1976, when neither President Gerald R. Ford nor challenger Ronald Reagan arrived at the convention with a majority of the delegates, but Ford rallied to a win on the first ballot.
The bottom line? Republican brokered conventions result in presidential wins!
