Roger Stone (Trump consigliere) has shown Republicans a dead horse head

More than three months before any ballots have been cast at the Republican convention, Roger Stone, Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again consigliere, has delivered the campaign equivalent of a severed horse head to delegates who might consider denying Trump the nomination. Trump’s supporters will find you in your sleep, he merrily informed them this week. He did not mean it metaphorically.

“We will disclose the hotels and the room numbers of those delegates who are directly involved in the steal,” Stone said Monday, on Freedomain Radio. “If you’re from Pennsylvania, we’ll tell you who the culprits are. We urge you to visit their hotel and find them. You have a right to discuss this, if you voted in the Pennsylvania primary, for example, and your votes are being disallowed,” Stone said.

Stone apparently actually has a tattoo of Richard "Tricky Dicky" Nixon on his back.

Stone's now vowing "days of rage" on the banks of Lake Erie if the Republican Party tries any funny business at the convention in Cleveland. “They’re trying to steal it in two different ways. It is interesting to me that in every primary or caucus where Ted Cruz won, we have certified, proven, sworn evidence of massive voter fraud, which will later be presented to the credentials committee in Cleveland in an attempt to unseat delegates who were illegally elected," Stone claimed.

The other way method of theft, Stone elaborated, is "the phenomena of the Trojan Horse delegates, where Trump has won a primary, let’s take Texas for example — or he’s won a share of the votes in a primary. Trump got 40 percent of the vote in Texas; he’s entitled to 40 percent of the delegates. There’s 100 delegates from Texas. That’s 40 delegates. And they are pledged by party rules to vote for Trump on the first ballot."

"But the actual people in those delegate seats will be anti-Trump party hacks who will vote against Trump on procedural matters such as the seating of delegates or the rules under which this convention will be conducted," Stone said, pointing to the example of Louisiana, where Cruz's allies in the local GOP muscled out pro-Trump delegates even though Trump won the popular vote.

"So the fix is in," Stone concluded. "If Trump does not run the table on the rest of the primaries and the caucuses, we’re looking at a very, very narrow path in which the kingmakers go all out to cheat, to steal and to snatch this nomination from the candidate who was overwhelmingly selected by the voters, which is why I have urged Trump supporters: Come to Cleveland, march on Cleveland, join us in the Forest City."

1. I hate this

I'm going to have to pull for the police against the protestors.
But Good Lord it is going to be some interesting TV.
Where the hippies in Chicago in 68 had flowers and bell bottoms, these assholes may show up in Cleveland with assault rifles.

2. Protestors don't go banging on hotel room doors. Mobs do. Fascist paramilitary goons do. . nt

[cui bono]

6. So true. n/t

[Chan790]

11. People who will be arrested do.

Hotels are private property. If you're not a guest, a guest of a guest, or a patron in some other form...you're trespassing, so if the hotel staff asks you to leave and you do not...you're going to get to see the inside of the Cleveland City Jail at The Justice Center.

Please, please Trump Asshole #2, have your supporters and delegates commit felony harassment and trespass for your asshole candidate. America and the private prisons industry needs the incarcerated labor.

3. Trump acts more like a mobster

than a businessman or politician.

10. Duh!

ReTHUGs all!

[Hekate]

4. KnR. Thugs. Have they been issued their brown shirts yet?

Be very afraid of this man.

5. I would not want to be

a Cleveland cop during that time. I think the place is going to go nuts.

7. My guess: An empty threat

But it could be rather effective considering the fearfulness Republicans engage in and embrace so enthusiastically.

8. I so hope you are right. But I don't think so. This Trump movement is really alarming.

It is not beyond them to intimidate and enact violence to get what they want. We have already seen violence at his rallies.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

9. Yes. Have you heard of the Bikers for Trump?

[Ilsa]

12. And yet trump has reason to be concerned about

Cruz and the extent they'll go to to steal an election.

[Marrah_G]

13. Would his statements not be considered violent threats and election tampering?

I am honestly worried that before this is over someone will be killed by his crazy supporters.

14. Charming.

Republican values are just freaking charming.
