So, it is better to relax, vote your choice and if Trump gets it, that the RNC lives up to their name and integrity and gives him his earned nomination. I do not like him, and I do not want him for president, but I also will not tolerate the RNC acting underhandedly. If he gets the nomination, he might not win the general election. We might have Hillary as president. But, if so at least we will still have a party that's not shattered by a bunch of establishment cronies. If this goes to the convention for determination and they don't give it to the candidate with the most votes, then they are committing political suicide. AND then we will have either Hillary if she is not incarcerated, or Bernie the socialist. And then we will have four more years of the last eight years. But, I would rather endure another crappy four years, than to have the Republican party destroyed.

No matter how much we dislike Trump, we have to admit that Trump is the reason we have had a 50%+ voter turnout this year.

I do not profess perfection. I will state my case in two sentences that are easily vetted and confirmed.

If Trump wins the nomination....

1. He will get thrashed in the general election.

2. The Republican Party will lose congress.

I will give the benifit of the doubt that you can think this through and leave it at that.

I might add, the insistence on talking about establishment in this primary came from Donald Trump. He shaped it early on.

I am not supporting any of the other 3, but suggest you do some research, and I think you will find my summary to be accurate.

Thus, what you and others see as a good thing will turn only to cripple any conservative movement for decades.
