I agree with Rush though; the goal is to put Jeb up.

As long as this crap is just wistful talking..............if they start acting on it- the Republican party as an equal contender to the Democrats is dead. Period.
Maybe the establishment needs to start listening to their constituents - that or just cross-over to the Democrat party.

I wouldn't hate that. Need to pull some of the control of the democratic party away from the fringe left. Stealing moderate republicans would be a great way to do that.

Regardless of whether Trump is nominated at the convention or if there is shenanigans the future looks uncertain.

RE: Establishment Still Doesnt Get It
The best thing the Republican party can do at this point is cut their losses. They should actively reject Trump, let him run third party and rid themselves once and for all of the racist 40% of their party.
Yes, they would lose the election but they might just save their party.
Otherwise, they will never recover.

No. They should embrace Trump as a savant that has been able to pull Democrats over to backing him. He's made the Republican tent bigger........the bigwigs of the party just have their panties in a wad because the leading candidate isn't beholden to them......
You think dirty Hillary that should be indicted for crimes is a shining example for the Democrats to throw out as a great candidate?
Bottom line is those with lots of money to throw around to political candidates want a situation where both sides are already bought and paid for. Hillary most definitely is, Jeb is, Rubio is..........why do you think they don't want Trump?

Any proof of this, or are you just talking out of your ass... once again?

Remember, in Fit's world you can't generalize about anyone unless they are a Republican or a cop...then all bets are off.

RE: Establishment Still Doesnt Get It
It just came out the Ryan would not accept the nomination if offered.
Back to the drawing board.
Personally, as much as I detest Tramp as president I don't think the RNC should throw a wrench into the workings. If he wins it fair and square let him run and let the dice fall where they may.
I probably wouldn't vote as I see no sense in voting for either Tramp or Killary. Like I've stated time and again, I don't hold to any particular party, I vote for the individual, and both of them SUCK.

What about Gary Johnson? He didn't do a bad job as Governor of New Mexico.

It's always funny to hear a leftists opinion of what conservatives should do. Name some of the racist Republicans.

There was a script for electing Jeb!. They knew he couldn't get the nomination unless he could get it with a low percentage. Some of those candidates were only there to sop up votes and divide things so that Jeb! could find a path to the nomination. That's part of the reason we had 16 candidates.
But Trump's arrival caused that plan to blow up in their own faces.
Limbaugh is right that the whole goal was Jeb! but its way too late for him to get re-injected in some sort of convention shenanigans.

You gotta stop reading Sundance. He is a Trump paid propagandist writing to the lowest common denominator. There are people trying to dump Trump and no doubt there are people that want Jeb president, but this isn't some script written by boogymen controlled by Jeb Bush that everyone but Trump is in on.

No idea who that is.
It was pretty apparent from the beginning that that was the original script. But it hasn't been in play for a long time now.

The only reason democrats are voting republican is because they know Trump can't win. Hillary isn't the greatest candidate but even she can destroy Trump.
