Betrayed! 1,000 delegates to ditch Trump?
Just when it appeared that the movement to dump Donald Trump as the GOP presidential candidate was defeated, it looks like it has come roaring back.
And this time, it may have more momentum than ever.
As many as 1,000 delegates to the Republican National Convention may have interest in a new push to ditch Trump and allow delegates to choose another candidate.
The new movement is calling itself Free the Delegates, and its rallying like-minded Republicans to prepare for a fight.
But critics argue that it is a petulant coup that would set aside the will of millions of voters who backed Trump.
According to insiders, the Free the Delegates movement plans to organize thousands of delegates in a plot to depose Trump with a convention rules change.
Roughly 30 delegates from 15 states participated in a conference call Thursday night, Yahoo! reported Monday. Since then, however, [their] campaign appears to have picked up steam. A second conference call on Sunday night attracted an alleged 1,000 participants.
According to The Washington Post, The group is led by delegates seeking to block Trump at the GOP convention next month in Cleveland by changing party rules so that they can vote however they want instead of in line with the results of state caucuses and primaries. It is quickly emerging as the most organized effort to stop Trump and coincides with his declining poll numbers.
The Free the Delegates movement is also reportedly raising money for staff and a legal defense fund.
This establishment threat to Trumps nomination has grown increasingly credible. The Associated Press has reported that more and more Republicans in Congress are saying they will not attend the party convention and are not endorsing his candidacy.
Trump wondered aloud Saturday who his opponents would pick as a replacement, a problem that has plagued the Never Trump movement for months.
Who are they going to pick? I beat everybody. But I dont mean beat I beat the hell out of them, he said.
Tell us what you think! Would you support another GOP candidate if Trump was dropped at the Republican National Convention?

It looks like Cruz has bedded with the DC Cartel. Cruz's unelected Colorado Delegate, Kendall Unruh, wants to unbind all delegates at the convention to allow allow them to vote their conscience at the convention so another leader can squeak in.
This broke on Fox Business on June 14, 2016. Had this under Breaking and Front Page News, but it was taken down by the Ad. Mod. It is a very upsetting interview. This interview needs to go viral. It will piss you off.

The nearest lamp-post.
Enough that the Senate recently committed literal, actual, hanged-by-the-neck-until-dead Treason as defined by the Constitution. (Reasoning)

If the delegates pull the plug on Trump, then the remainder of the convention will go quick as the place will look like the Mohave Desert when the others walk out. The GOP will never recover from it.

Taxman...a lot of people are wondering why you posted this piece from “The Horn News”, and to be honest, I am too.
Granted, there are a lot of “Trump is going to lose” editorials and articles out there, but this seems like filling in the empty spaces with negative news. A liberal named John Smith probably has a “Trump will lose” blog, too.
Again, nothing personal, but I am curious...why this source?

But part of what we do here on FR is take posted articles that are ‘disinformation’ and tear them apart.
I am with you on this. Think the Whig Party.
Uh....1,000 people on the call does NOT equate to 1,000 people playing along.
I think you and I are in the same boat there; it'd be hard to pick a worse candidate than the "status quo, everlasting corruption" candidate (Clinton or another establishment pawn), so in that scenario Johnson's the best choice I know of who's running for president.
Would these delegates mind if we compiled a LIST of their names and addresses and posted it online for everyone to see ?
Yeah, but you have to give them credit for at least admitting it's an EDITORIAL piece.
Send a copy to each of them so they can get a group discount at Travelocity.....................
Another media fabricated story to further there push poll story line that Trump is hated by everyone on earth.
We can win this battle, both in the Party and in November, if we fight boldly, but intelligently; recognizing the tremendous disadvantage of those who can only prevail, when the media goes all in with the "Big Lie," techniques that enslaved first Russia & then Germany in the 20th Century. The answer to the big lie, has always been the drumbeat like insistence on an endlessly reiterated truth.
I’m surprised this thread hasn’t been pulled yet.
Anything adverse against Trump and from any obscure source seem to be popping up regularly now. I find this most inquisitive.
Btw, it's really easy to keep track of those who posts these.
