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:
It’s not about the overthrow of a government. It’s about how people have turned a two bit low life into a celebrity and taking that unprepared fraud into the highest place of distinguished public service, the leader of the free world, the Whitehouse!
And the people would rather choose that big mouth liberal bozo over a vetted candidate that is a constitutional conservative rock star that was fighting against the corruption in Washington while that bozo was funding it!

If it was about taking down the lawless group in Washington then the people would hold their representatives accountable!

You have no clue what you’re talking about. While Ted Cruz was fighting against the corruption in Washington Trump was funding it!
HUCKABEE U NEED TO BE ON THAT TRAIN LEAVING AMERICA IF TRUMP GETS TO BE PRESIDENT
He is right
My opinion the grand old party does not care if Hillary becomes president. Both parties have merged into one.that’s why the repubs have done nothing to protect us from Obama.he should have been impeach several times. They just don’t want trump exposing their dirty deeds.
Trump isn’t a government puppet
While it is true both Cruz and Trump have there issues, right now the thing we need to concern ourself with and turn our focus on is this.
The stop campaign that is going on in the Republican party is not just about stoping Trump, but it is about stoping Cruz also.
Although Cruz has been looked at as part of the political establishment, it is just not the case. Trump and Cruz both are anti when it comes to what the Republican party has turned into. This is why both are the only two left with a clear path to being chosen. The back and forth between Trump and Cruz and those who support them has to stop and the attention needs to be turned toward the Republican establishment who is trying to go to a third party canidate of there choosing. If they do this They will be handing the presidency to Hillary Clinton which would be a disaster to our country. Despite what you have heard from the Democratic media Trump and Cruz both have the ability to trounce Hillary, and the Democratic party and Republican party both know it. The polls you have been hearing between Trump and Hillary, and Cruz and Hillary are not accurate because they come from a Democratic media who tries to control your vote and create the disagreements that go on with the supporters of the canidates. I will vote for either one of these canidates even though I don’t agree with everything about either one of them. What we need to be flooding facebook with right now are post letting the establishment know we are not going to sit back quietly while they choose a candidate that goes against the choice of the people of this country. Oh I know some Trump supporter or some Cruz supporter is going to miss the whole point of this post and try to turn it into proving there point by speaking out against either Trump or Cruz. Open your eyes to what is going on.

It’s time for we the people to be heard… and that will happen thru Trump. The GOP says our vote doesn’t matter, that we don’t decide the GOP nominee… well by God our vote does determine elections. Trump to DC… fire all the life time politicians, time to clean up Washington & make America great again!!
