Even if he gets the most delegates, the GOP will NOT let Trump be the nominee.

A pledge might not be legally binding but for honorable people a pledge creates a moral obligation. A pledge is a promise. It's okay with you if people around you just break promises? But some people have no morals, I know.

I do.

And when the RNC does not uphold their end

Trump is released from the terms.

I don't. And I also don't think the RNC has upheld their end of the 'gentlemen's deal' with stories every day about backroom meetings trying to oust Trump. BUT - he said AGAIN at the debate that he will not run independent. Remember the moderator clapping at that????

I don't see how Trump/Rand Paul attract the same crowd at all - but stranger things have happened.

In what alternate reality is Ryan considered a liberal?
