What these half-wit GOPeers fail to factor in is what The Donald is planning.

Trump has enormous political capital...and he can choose to spend it where and when he pleases.

He/s gotten this far despite their machinations....and for sure he/s not gonna let these half-baked establishment types take him down at the convention.

Sure, if Trump is denied the nomination, then he'll run as a 3rd party candidate. Don't you think the GOP strategists aren't perfectly aware of that scenario?

So what's the plan Stan? Simple: the GOP figures that in a 3-way (or even better, 4-way race), no one will reach 270 electoral votes.

You know where this goes next. When the House convenes, they elect the GOP nominee on the first ballot, even if he never reached a plurality. Say hello to president Bush III.
