Does anybody know if the GOP-E can force a VP that is not Trump’s choice?
At the convention, is the ticket voted on as one, or are President and VP separate? In other words can they saddle him with a establishment figure by refusing to vote for the VP Trump chose?
The convention votes separately for VP, but, again, where would the votes come from?
Despite the FR delusion that all delegates are Establishment hacks, delegates always adopt bandwagon and party unity behavior once the major issue is decided.
The big mistake the GOP-E made was failing to pay attention to the fact the GOP grass roots activists have become more conservative since GW Bush. Guys like Kristol really thought they had grass roots GOP support.
