GOP National Committeeman: Romney Heading Up ‘National Movement’ Against Trump
Daily Caller ^ | July 12, 2016 | Kerry Picket

CLEVELAND, Ohio — A Republican National Committeeman from Oregon warned reporters Tuesday that 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney is attempting to foil Donald Trump’s nomination at the GOP convention next week.

Solomon Yue, a member of the RNC’s Standing Rules Committee, made these remarks after the committee adjourned Tuesday afternoon. Different from the Convention Rules Committee, which holds jurisdiction over the 2016 convention rules, the standing committee found itself responding to inquiries relating to whether or not certain delegates can vote in opposition to the results of their state primary on the first ballot of the nomination process.

The Convention Rules Committee is expected to meet on Thursday and Friday. When it gathers, according to North Dakota National Committeeman Curly Haugland, it will start over with the rules of 2012 and their recommended changes. “That’s where we’ll begin the discussion about what we’ll recommend as a convention rules committee to the full convention,” Haugland told The Daily Caller

TheDC learned that at least 28 or one quarter of the convention rules committee might be committed to unbinding all delegates that are bound to their state primary results. If this is the case, minority report can be produced from the rules committee and sent to the floor of the full convention for a floor vote.

Seems to me, both the Republicans and the Democrats are scared of Trump.

Methinks both parties fear loss of their control over America [as they envision and desire it].

Apparently Mitt thinks that the American voters are too stupid to choose a presidential candidate.

Annoying as hell.

“I wouldn’t worry about it. Trump should win any floor fight handily.”

There had better be paper ballots, because if there isn’t, these turncoat Uniparty Globalists absolutely WILL cheat.

Romney and the rest of his bots are pencil-pushing office turds who have been public parasites for their whole professional lives. They've never tangled with a real-world street fighter like Trump, particularly under the current circumstances. They're all jittery, how dare that guy encroach into their space, yet they're the ones stepping into Trump's ring for a pummeling, not the other way around.

I despise people like Mitt Romney. He’s done more to kill conservatism then any democrat.

Romney would push Paul Ryan is my guess, if he could force even a crack in the door.

Mitt trying to stop Trump at the convention is the same as a flea doing the backstroke and asking for the drawbridge to be raised because it had taken a Viagra.

Mitt has a remarkably high opinion of himself.

One must conclude, that based on the abundant evidence, that Romney works for the DNC.

RINO = DNC agent

Maybe this is why Paul Ryan is setting his own agenda for Republicans. Because he thinks the delegates will throw Trump over and Romney/Ryan can complete their victory tour.
They’ve both been drinking the same crazy water.

It runs in the family. Probably all the way back to that Mexican chicken ranch.
