Last night Tom Delay, former speaker of the house and party insider, basically said that is what is going to happen......so start believing it.
He was on CNN a little while ago saying the same thing but commenting that their plan requires Kasich winning Ohio. The PACs will be throwing a lot of support that way over the next two weeks.
In 2016, Trump doesn’t need the racketeers money because he has the Republican grassroots, but the racketeers have one last play: fix the Rules of the Conventions. For example, do you know how many delegates Trump must get to be nominated for president today? Zero. Cruz, Rubio, and all the rest? Also zero. Why? Because the Rule that allows them to be nominated (Rule 40) requires “permanently seated delegates†for nomination. But that won’t happen until the Credentials Committee meets at the convention!
Then there is rule 40-B.Please note that Rule 40 as it is currently written expires on the day before the convention when the Rules Committee meets to make up the new Rules of the Convention and for the Republican Party for the next 4 years. Rule 40-B currently requires a nominee to have “the “majority of the permanently seated delegates from at least 8 states.†Romney lawyer Ben Ginsberg was able to change Rule 40 from “plurality of the delegates from at least 5 states†to the current rule. The potential for skullduggery is clear. Even if Trump runs the tables in the primaries winning a plurality in virtually every state the rule can be tailored by a controlled Rules Committee to prevent a Trump nomination.
Rule 40-B used to require a majority in six states but when Congressman Ron Paul met that goal it was quickly changed to eight states. Under control of the insiders the number of states required can be amended to any number to block Trump.
This is hilarious-
The libs are so terrified of Trump that they are huddling and developing fanciful scenarios to ally thier fears.
The fear the libs should have is a Hillary candidacy, in which that candidate may be under Federal indictment. Hillary being indicted is far more likely than a "brokered" republican convention.

You're so hung up on your talk radio and lib hating you aren't even capable of seeing that actual REPUBLICANS are saying that this is going to happen.
Said it before and I'll say it again. I believe the GOP would be perfectly happy throwing this election to Hillary and trying again in 4 years rather than see Trump destroy the party.
And you are perfectly happy with them making the choice for the people and are happy that they are trying to hold onto their power and riches. Good job.
I think the RNC knows that if they pull any s*it, 30% of Republicans may sit out the General Election.
I think that they are facing that regardless. Conservative will NOT vote for Trump. Trump is basically the spoiler for the Democrats.
