This is the sort of tone that makes Cruz and his lawyerly tactics repulsive.

It’s rhetoric Internet age. Smoke filled rooms aren’t as invisible as they were in days of yore.

Give all the history lessons you want, but if the GOP defies the will of the primary voters, the already strained relationship will break completely. Many will stay home for the general or write in “Trump”, as the hallowed rules allow them to do.

The only shame I feel after reading that excellent history lesson is that I sent money to Cruz.

If the GOP defies the will of the primary voters, the already strained relationship will break completely.

The problem with this comment about "the will of the primary voters" is that it appears that about 60% of the Republican voters don't want Trump.

We have a mess on our hands, FReeper FRiend. Nominating Trump could be worse than not nominating him--not to mention getting clobbered by Hillary for nominating him.

(I blame Trump for this mess, because while I applaud his dismantling of the GOPe, he has gone way too far on his blustering, profane Alinskyite ego trip--almost singlehandedly causing this horrible Party rift and also ruining his own national electability.

Trump can pivot on a dime and probably placate the GOPe guys, but that two-faced gift on his part will WORSEN his standing with Constitutional conservatives.)
