Who cares if the trump supporters would be pissed - they are the ones who got us in this mess.
At least by dumping Trump, the Republican Party would lose the election with some dignity still in tact.....
Pence would become the Presidential Nominee and word has it that The Chair would be the VP
Not necessarily. The RNC votes on who it will be. Does not have to be the VP candidate.
"...RULE NO. 9
Filling Vacancies in Nominations
(a) The Republican National Committee is hereby authorized and empowered to fill any and all vacancies which may occur by reason of death, declination, or otherwise of the Republican candidate for President of the United States or the Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States, as nominated by the national convention, or the Republican National Committee may reconvene the national convention for the purpose of filling any such vacancies.
(b) In voting under this rule, the Republican National Committee members representing any state shall be entitled to cast the same number of votes as said state was entitled to cast at the national convention. (c) In the event that the members of the Republican National Committee from any state shall not be in agreement in the casting of votes hereunder, the votes of such state shall be divided equally, including fractional votes, among the members of the Republican National Committee present or voting by proxy.
(d) No candidate shall be chosen to fill any such vacancy except upon receiving a majority of the votes entitled to be cast in the election...."
Romney was good candidate and is a good man, but was running against a popular incumbent President. Any 2012 GOP candidate would have been a sacrificial lamb.
I agree. If it were Mitt vs. Hilary, I would go with Mitt.
He has gone from begging for cash from any and everyone - to flush with cash - almost on par with Hillary. Probably just another lie.
