Rush has been talking about this today on his radio show. Looks like they are going to do anything possible to deny Trump the nomination no matter what the voters want. I didn’t hear Rush’s entire assessment of what’s going on but I’d bet - this is only my opinion - this will include Cruz as well.

Playing it out. ...

Lets say that happens and Trump is about a 100 delegates away from 1237. Trump will still likely win the day when horse trading is all said and done. Trump uses negotiation skills and gets the other 137 delegate votes he needs while keeping all his delegates from straying. The GOPee Pee would be checked although we could see a Cruz VP to get his delegates which would make a few happy here. Or Rubio or even a Kasich as VP to secure the nomination for Trump.

He also said Bill Kristol was the only media there. Also, related. . the fracking suit, (I think he said in Ohio) is not going well for the left and Facebook just shut down the Anti-Fracking page on Facebook.

Rush said Facebook, Google and social media are pushing themselves as 'the New Media'. . . so (my thought, Rush Didn't say this), Is it time to Boycott Facebook and Google? The impression was they are going to control the media, one way or another. . if it's not the Print media, Networks, Cable, then it's going to to be Facebook and Google. "We'll decide what they're brainwashed with."

Rush said if they have to they’ll take him out “outside” the system. That sounded like an assassination to me. There was a little silence like someone was talking to him then he said “They’ll take him out by using the convention” or something like that.

To all of you who think Tom Cotton is “all that” and not establishment, look where he was this weekend.

I’m going to post the following a bunch today. I’m not saying people are idiots but I am swaying that not everyone knows those who vote in the primaries are not the delegates that will be voting at the convention.

Here ‘tis:

I hope everyone understands that very few of the Cruz and Trump voters are delegates. Delegates are the republican governors and congress folks, County Chairman...in other words they’re chosen by the elite.

Just because Cruz were to get 42 delegates in Florida if he doesn’t get enough on the first vote ALL 42 are then allowed to vote for their favorite sons Bush or Rubio or whoever they’re told to vote for.

In fact, I doubt all of Texas delegates will vote for Cruz after the first ballot. It’s the same with Trump.

That’s why I say we need to support the one man they’re most scared of. I beg Cruz voters to vote for Trump so he can win it on the first count.

They did not discuss who to stop Cruz at their meeting this weekend.
