Donald Trump may have come away from Super Tuesday the clear GOP frontrunner — if there was ever any doubt — but that hasn’t stopped the party bosses from attempting to block Trump from the nomination nonetheless.
Party rules dictate that a presidential candidate must receive a majority of delegates in order to secure the nomination at the convention, but Trump has yet to cross that threshold. Usually, this isn’t much of an issue. After candidates concede the race, their delegates have usually moved behind to presumptive nominee.
Considering the tenuous relationship Trump has managed with the GOP establishment, its likely that they’re unwilling to let Trump acquire other candidates’ delegates in such an easy fashion. Rather, many believe that there is an underground movement to take those delegates to establishment favorite Marco Rubio, or even Mitt Romney.
While technically within the rules of the race, such a move would no doubt be unprecedented, and signals to some, including former candidate Mike Huckabee, a party overthrowing the will of the voters.
See what Huckabee has to say of the potential takeover by the Republican Party on the next page:
This is so sad! People like Mitt Romney are afraid of Trump. He and others like him are just afraid of losing their place on the gravy train…..
Oh ya
TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE GO TRUMP!!
i wouldn’t say it was an “overthrow” a good cleansing is needed. reinstate constitution reduce the size and reach of federal government. get rid of hundreds of thousands of useless laws. get statesmen in postions to voice the people not big business.
Damn right it is. If the GOP steals this nomination from us they will not be prepared for the backlash that follows.

Trump Explained:
When was the last time you could vote for the ideal candidate? I’m old, and I always voted. I can’t remember ever thinking any were ideal. We always have two choices, usually Tweedledee and Tweedledum. If you didn’t vote for Tweedledee you got Tweedledum. That’s the way it is folks.
Now consider this…… An interesting analogy.
You’ve been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean, raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately, so you hire a guy. A pro. You don’t care if the guy smells, you need those raccoons gone pronto and he’s the guy to do it! You don’t care if the guy swears, you don’t care if he’s an alcoholic, you don’t care how many times he’s been married, you don’t care if he has plumber’s crack…you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He’s the guy. He’s the best. Period.
That’s why Trump…. Yes, he’s a bit of an$#%&!@* Yes, he’s an egomaniac, but you don’t care. The country is a mess because politicians are playing games and we are all sick and tired of Tweedledee and Tweedledum choices. The Democrats are killing us, the Republican Party is gutless, liberals don’t have a clue, and illegals are everywhere. You want it all fixed!
You don’t care that Trump is crude, you don’t care that he insults people, you don’t care that he had been friendly with Hillary, you don’t care that he’s been married 3 times, you don’t care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O’Donnell, you don’t care that he doesn’t know the name of some Muslim terrorist,…this country is weak, bankrupt, our enemies are making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegal’s, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo and Hamid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don’t even recognize the country we were born and raised in; “AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED”. Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want. You’re sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and sick of illegal’s. You just want this thing fixed.
Trump may not be a saint, but no person or company he has ever done business with has come forward and called him corrupt, or hard to do business with. He doesn’t have lobbyist money holding him, and he doesn’t have political correctness restraining him. All you know is that he has been well educated at the university of Pennsylvania business school, seems to have boundless energy, has been very successful, a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he’s not a cowardly, deceitful, professional, politician. And he says he’ll fix it.
You don’t care if the guy has bad hair.
You just want those raccoons gone.
Out of your house!
Now!!!!
THIS MAY BE WHY HE LEADS THE POLLS.
F**k this guy and everything he says.
What? Their finally getting it? Exactly right! Its an overthrow of a bloated corrupt government that has abused the trust we placed in it. We’re awake now and we’re gonna fix it.
