Question for anti-Trump folks on here.There is talk now that even if Trump secures the required number of delegates before the convention, that the rules will be changed at the convention to take the nomination away from Trump.As much as some of you despise Trump, would you protest if this does happen

It would be the end of the Republican Party as we know it. Enough people would just stay home and not vote to automatically give the election to the Dems in protest. The problem is that the whole deal is people are sick of politics as usual - and that would be the picture of what everyone is rejecting. A new party would emerge - the anti-establishment party. The Tea Party

I think the GOP establishment wants all Tea Party types to leave the party. The elite will gladly go back to being a 35% share holder if it means they get to keep the perks

Trump is ridiculous. We all know what he is! He is an egotistical bully that did well in business and has had a good run in tabloid magazines and reality tv. Does he really represent your ideas and the ideology of America? He uses filthy language, is misogynistic, is the definition of greedy and self indulgent, is mean spirited and simply does not have the moral fiber I look for in a leader. He claims to be a Christian. I certainly don't not want to judge his faith or His personal relationship with Jesus. However, if by their fruits we will know them, do we see any of the fruits of the Spirit operating in his life?LoveJoyPeacePatienceKindnessGoodnessFaithfulnessGentlenessSelf ControlSeriously.. Follow his speeches, tweets, interviews, and rallies for the last 8 months and tell me does this man have the qualities of a leader? Would he truly represent you?Truthfully, I wouldn't want him teaching my kids in school. Nor would I want him coaching my kids in little league. I wouldn't want him to be my boss. I don't see myself being able to follow a man like that. Would you? I don't care if he has been a successful businessman. I can't see him as the Leader of the Free World. Can you

All that ranting my friend and the nomination is not as yet. ?But you can say a lot of terrible things about Trump, and I will agree with a lot, but one thing he is not is Hillary. I hear this a lot, Anyone But Trump! I am not saying it, but I sorta feel it, Anyone but Hillary!Methinks RS is upset as he made this post. But I do not think even the GOP leaders are this stupid, BUT THEN who knows?There is one thing I have and that is HOPE! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

My apologies, sir. In hindsight, I should have started a new post.To answer the original post of wether or not I would protest: I probably would not protest. I really don't know who I would protest to. I wouldn't necessarily like it, but I can't say that it would surprise me either

I am not actively supporting anyone at this point. My man (Carson) has dropped out. Having said that - I remember at the beginning of the Republican debates that the moderators were insisting that everyone on stage make a statement committing their self to supporting whoever won the nomination. Trump at first said something like, I'll have to wait and see who it is and everyone got upset because he didn't appear to be a team player and if he got out-voted he would take his toys and go home and throw the election to the Democrats.The outcry to support who got the most votes no matter what was so great that they came back the next debate and asked again and this time Trump caved and said he would support whoever got the most votes, as did every other candidate including Cruz, Rubio and Kasich.So my problem with the GOP is now that it appears that they (we - me included) are not going to get one of their guys in, they are willing to divide the party and through scheming and back-room agreements steal the party nomination for an establishment cooperating candidate. They wanted everyone to agree to accept who they could control and now that it looks like they are losing - they are willing to trash this election and try again in 4 years. It's all about control by the establishment as far as I can see.I do not support Trump but I think Kasich is staying in only to keep Trump from getting strong enough support in the northeast (where Cruz fails miserably) to win the needed delegates to get the nomination on the first ballot. It looks like political corruption and maneuvering at its worst since every other candidate with no clear path to the 1237 has dropped out - only the one who can stop Trump and force a brokered convention stays in because they fear Trump vs. Cruz the rest of the way means Trump wins. They are choosing to take their toys and go home instead of allowing the people to choose between the only 2 candidates left with a clear path to the 1237.I am not a Trump supporter but this looks to me like now since they are not getting their way - they are reneging on what they forced Trump to agree upon at the start. If Trump has the most delegates going into the convention and they renege and steal it from him then Hillary will win and the Republican establishment will try again in 4 years and the Republican party as we know it will cease to exist because millions of people will go independent.
