The Republican Party establishment is prepared to manipulate the rules at the party’s national convention this summer to deprive Donald Trump of the presidential nomination—even if he wins an outright majority of delegates—according to longtime political operative and Trump confidant Roger Stone.
At the same time, Republican leaders are also moving forward with an eleventh-hour push to stop Trump in the remaining primary races, the New York Times reports. Their plan involves “a 100-day campaign to deny him the presidential nomination, starting with an aggressive battle in Wisconsin’s April 5 primary and extending into the summer, with a delegate-by-delegate lobbying effort that would cast Mr. Trump as a calamitous choice for the general election.”
