Trump Critics Urge RNC To Replace Trump In Special Meeting

[riversedge]

7. Looks like it might be legally possible to do so.......

But I know maybe a week ago or so, the Reese Pieces guy said NO!

...Party rules allow RNC members to replace a presidential nominee in the event of "death, declination, or otherwise" - language Trump critics say allows for his replacement soon after he formally captured his party's presidential nomination at the national convention. To force a meeting to discuss Trump's ouster, however, organizers must submit signatures by at least 16 RNC members from 16 states.

Should they do so, GOP chairman Reince Priebus has 10 to 20 days to convene the full, 168-member Republican National Committee.

"This is the same story over and over again," said RNC spokesman Sean Spicer, dismissing the latest effort. He suggested that the Trump rebels have "a credibility problem" after repeated failed attempts to block Trump's nomination at the convention.

Even after Trump ended his feud by endorsing Ryan last Friday night, a fresh wave of Republican operatives - and even a handful of elected officials - vowed to vote for someone else or even leave the GOP altogether.
