"GOP mulls convention challenge to Trump" LATEST: unbinding voted down in cmte

[Indy Texas]

Trump has said he wants to wait until the convention to "surprise" everyone with his VP pick, but it may be wise for him to roll the running mate out within a couple of weeks to send the message to the delegates that, "sorry folks, the Trump Train has already left the station and the Trump Train don't got no brakes."

No one wants to be Trump's running mate so getting an anti-Trump VP isn't going to happen.

Who in their right mind would tar themselves with being associated with this disaster?

The Republicans, if rumors hold, will get to choose from Trump-Christie, Trump-Gingrich, Trump-Sessions or Trump-Fallin.

Bill Kristol and the rest don't understand that you can't nominate "Not Donald Trump."

You have to have an alternative who is going to be acceptable to the overwhelming majority of the delegates. (Not just a bare majority.) If you don't, you get a floor fight being broadcast, livestreamed, Tweeted and everything else. That sort of skullduggery could be stage-managed in 1948. It just doesn't work anymore.

There is no one you could produce who meets that test.
