The left’s support of anybody-not-Trump is an attempt to draw off enough votes in the first round of the GOP Convention to throw it into a brokered situation where the GOP RINO establishment there can screw him out of the nomination by arbitrary rules changes.

I do not believe, at this point, that even the rudest and crudest RINOs can muster enough support to force a brokered nomination to somehow deliver a blow to Trump. They might as well be sneezing in a tornado.

Trump is truly a force of nature. And it is not nice to fool with nature.

Let me guess the person that would make that call is Ronna McRomeny. If that happened would Trump finally trash her like he should have done years ago?

“...where the GOP RINO establishment there can screw him out of the nomination by arbitrary rules changes.”

That’s been their dream from DAY ONE, literally, the day Trump came down the escalator.

And they could toss Trump, just as they could have voted to convict him during Impeachment, as we all know that 90% or so of the GOP wanted to do. Plus, the judicial ruling against Bernie in 2016 (the one keeping Skunk Cabbage on the ballot) stated that Primaries are only ‘advisory’ and party leaders can do as they wish in their conventions.

So why didn’t Trump get pulled? For the same reason it won’t happen again - if the GOP screws Trump and gets him off the ballot, then the ELECTED Republicans, plus the Republican candidates go down with him, as few Trump voters are going to pull the lever for down-ballot Republicans if Trump is screwed over, even if those Republicans are able to rightly claim that they had nothing to do with the screw-over.

So, again, the same situation exists, hence the goal of trying to use the DNC to get Trump off the ballot via law-fare...when it’s almost certain that Republican leaders are advising the Democrat prosecutors (no evidence, but then is any evidence even needed, given their histories with Trump?).
