Donald Trump’s allies on the national GOP convention Rules Committee crushed a proposal Thursday aimed at dumping Trump from the top of the Republican ticket — and they sealed its fate further by passing an amendment to ensure his nomination.
The proposal affirms that delegates are unambiguously bound to the results of primaries and caucuses — meaning they can’t break with the will of voters and Dump Trump at the convention. It passed 87 to 12, and its passage was the first official sign that anti-Trump forces lack the votes to block Trump’s path to the nomination.

No endorsement from Cruz and no speech at Rnc. His endorsement comes then. If he double crosses trump and he wins Cruz is done in politics.

Cruz is repellent. The more I see him in action, the lower goes my opinion of him. Imagine taking the pledge to support the nominee based on voter's choice, and then doing all these underhanded actions. SLIMY! I hope all those well intention-ed conservatives on FR have seen the light by now.

Some major trolls over there... including a few (doubtless your eye picks 'em out as easily and readily as mine) whom Jim needs to flush away, for good and for all, sooner rather than later.

But were they “working” for Cruz? Or for Romney-Ryan-McCain-McConnell-Boehner-Riece?

The really cool thing is that he was/is an expensive construct for the globalists. Their very own stalking horse, groomed for a long time and at great expense, and now outed. Useless. When they were so bankrupt that they had to openly back him - the Lindsay Graham boost, the Neil Bush hire, the Jeb Bust sit down, the ride with Hussein - it unmasked him, ruined the investment, and demonstrated their lack of depth.
He must be crushed going forward. FOIA requests on government records - IF ANY - regarding his citizenship status.

Instead of inviting Cruz to speak at the convention, I would have gotten a restraining order preventing him from entering the convention center. If that failed, I would have directed the Secret Service to restrict access.

Ceuz won’t come around. He has a permanent case of TDS and lost his cognitive ability to think rationally.

We can thank Paul Manafort for this. He's Trump's political Thor.
