If Trump is denied the presidency after leading all the way, all hell with break loose and that is putting it mildly. There will be hell to pay and the GOP better think twice or three times and more about their actions.. they will regret it if they steal it from Trump.
You'd have to amend the First Amendment to eliminate free speech and free association clauses.

Why can't we just set up a safe zones and have one of those Korean comfort couches for everyone ? No liberal could resist that it's the perfect way to be shielded from the harsh reality of the world. Next time Trump buys those Korean TV's I bet he could get a deal on some and every member of congress would welcome their gift.

"The presidency"? I assume you mean the Republican nomination. But even in that case, leading all the way isn't the same thing as winning it based on getting 50% +1 of the delegates. Trump doesn't "own" the nomination until that point, any more than he "owns" the votes that are going to John Kasich. If he wins the requisite amount of delegates, he gets the nomination. If he doesn't, he is subject to the existing rules just like any other candidate. There is no special "Trump Rule" for whoever comes closest without winning.
I believe it was a big set up when Boehner stepped down and Ryan became speaker of the house.. they were maneuvering then to make Ryan speaker in case Trump got close to being nominated.
Trump entered the race June 16th 2015. Ryan put in as speaker of the house at the end of Oct. 2015. The establishment believed back in beginning of Oct. that Trump could win and this is why they have Ryan in as Speaker.. they want a contested convention. The establishment is lining up Ryan .. they are slick...

Hey, if he doesn't get the nomination , he won't become president.. he will win because Hillary is a loser.
The Koch brothers are Libertarians, so I don't see why they would be choosing Paul Ryan. I don't believe the story, not only because it's from a HuffPo piece, but because it doesn't make sense.
"And one associate of the speaker said he “guarantees” there has been no conversation with Charles Koch about the possibility,"

Please describe this hell breaking loose, I'm asking earnestly.
We must threaten to vote independent in primary and democrat in local elections. It's the only way they will listen. If we refuse to vote it plays right into their hands. Threaten to kick all Koch brother candidates out of your state and they will pay attention.
