They are going to try to thwart the will of 40% of the GOP (and growing)?

1. In the beginning, Trump should ignore it. Let speculation grow. It'll be another topic in which Trump dominates the media. And because it smacks of unfair tactics specifically aimed at Donald, Donald's popularity will rise.
2. Trump should call them out. He should point out that they are trying to require allegiance to an unknown candidate and its similar to passing legislation to find out what's in it. And he should name some names behind the pledge.
3. Can we throw out the leadership of the SC Republican party before the end of next month and change the pledge.
4. The pledge says "Generally support". Which I would assume gives enough wiggle room. Trump could always say a particular candidate is incompetent to promote the Republican platform and therefore he can't support them.
5. Trump should make a point that even though the pledge is undemocratic, that there is no reason to believe he will not be the nominee. So of course he will support the nominee.

Signing that pledge will give him another 5 points.
