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:
They are scared of Trump as they know their gravy train will dry up . GO TRUMP.
Yes it is ….thank you for telling it like it is sir.
Trump is not going to expose people ….Trump has been lobbying & bribing Politians for decades. Ted Cruz is the one candidate that would . Trump makes deals with who ever he needs to to get what he wants.
The more Trump gets attacked the more popular he becomes & that is how he has been winning & he gets so much Free press for it. Intelligent & manipulative people know how to gain the sympathy & support of others by seeming to need us.
Ted Cruz is the true outsider & the establishment really does not want to support him. Trump only has 40% of the Republican party’s vote. How can he win the General election with that?
It is a peaceful revolution.
Huckabee hit the nail on the head!
We can’t let them choose who is going to be the republican nominee. If they do this we can always write in a candidate. We need to take our country back.
Yep, stand strong Americans
The GOP has lost all connection with the American people, I’m done with them.
