What’s a conservative to do when the movement faces something as terrible as Trump?
Respond with principle and passion … and don’t lose your sense of humor. If nothing else, at least Donald J. Trump has inspired some unforgettable quotes from #NeverTrump conservatives.
What makes 2016 different? Trump is ahead when it comes to delegate numbers. But he still isn’t close to a 1,237 delegate majority, which would mean enough GOP voters supported him for him to represent the party in November. No delegate majority = no nomination. Contested/open/brokered convention, here we come!
So what will a GOP contested convention look like? We thought “Mean Girls” could explain it best.
The 2016 election cycle has reached a new insane that somehow feels remarkably sane: a revolution of conservatives the likes of which we have never seen.
But just saying the word “conservative” doesn’t mean much. We should start describing ourselves so much better than that.
