Not inevitable

No matter what the “Trump News Network” (Fox News) tells us daily, it is not inevitable that Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee for president. If he does not receive the required 1,237 delegates by the July convention, he could easily lose on a second ballot to Ted Cruz because the delegates would no longer be bound to support him. Hopefully they would see how suicidal it would be to nominate a candidate with such high unfavorable poll numbers who would lose to Hillary Clinton by double digits. It could also mean big losses in Congress. If we want to avoid a total drop off the cliff of socialism, we need to nominate a strong Constitutional conservative Christian who will fight to protect our rights and slow down the growth of government. Ted Cruz would destroy Hillary in both the debates and in the election. Make sure to send a message to the Republican Party and delegates in the upcoming primary that we can register our disgust with the establishment without nominating a childish reality star who will lose badly. Instead we can nominate Ted Cruz who will be ready on Day 1 and will beat Hillary.
