RNC Moves to Head Off Convention Revolt

“The Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee are moving quickly and aggressively to head off the fledgling effort to stage a revolt at their convention next month in Cleveland, hoping to spare the party an embarrassing spectacle that could deeply wound the presumptive nominee,” the New York Times reports.

“They are employing hard-nosed tactics, warning delegates that attempting to undermine Donald Trump’s claim to the nomination violates party rules, and threatening to deny speaking slots to Republicans they deem disloyal for not backing him.”
