RNC: Trump will be on ballot

[TomCADem]

The Republican National Committee is categorically denying reports that party officials are looking into how to replace Donald Trump in case he drops out of the presidential race before Election Day.

No one at national party headquarters has been instructed to look into that doomsday scenario, RNC strategist Sean Spicer said, and speculation that the RNC might pressure Trump to drop out of the race is unfounded.

Spicer insisted that there is no chance that anyone else will be the ballot in November.

“Donald Trump is the nominee of the Republican Party full-stop,” Spicer told The Hill. “That’s the reality. The rest is just a media-pundit concoction.”

20. Naw

Baghdad Bob had a much warmer personality and came across as a likeable guy. Plus, he was a lot more credible.

2. ...says the RNC, as Arthur Bremer scenarios swirl in those creepy minds of theirs.

Or, as they put it, "intervention."

26. Hmmmm ... sounds like bordering on an "exorcism!"

3. Want to bet what he wanted to say was

“Donald Trump is the nominee of the Republican Party full-stop. That’s the reality. The rest is just a media-pundit concoction. I wish to god this was a video game where we could reset the nomination process but it isnt and we dont see any viable way out short of Trump kicking over so we are focusing all our energy and resources on trying to keep majority control over either the House or the Senate, may god have mercy on our souls."

10. Toast will be served on the veranda with Tea and Orange Marmalade.

The fork is in and Trump is soooooo done. All that remains is to name the successor and slide him up to the cameras.

24. repuke wonk quoted as saying, "he'll be on the ballot even if it kills us!"

which it just may.

[skepticscott]

25. Yes, please

Keep that millstone around your necks until you fucking hit bottom, thugs.

And keep issuing denials that you're considering anything else, so that if you do dump him, we can paint the GOP as too disorganized to run a lemonade stand, let alone the country.

[Nitram]

[Gothmog]
