    Default Reince Priebus Hints At Penalties For Former GOP Candidates Who Don’t Endorse Trump

    Reince Priebus Hints At Penalties For Former GOP Candidates Who Don’t Endorse Trump

    Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said Sunday that GOP candidates who ran against Donald Trump and lost may face penalties if they don’t endorse Trump but try to take another shot at the presidency later.


    “Those people need to get on board,” Preibus said of Trump’s primary challengers.

    Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz have yet to endorse Trump, despite the real estate mogul securing the nomination in July.

    “If they’re thinking they’re going to run again some day, I think that we’re going to evaluate the process of the nomination process, and I don’t think it’s going to be that easy for them,” Priebus told CBS’s “Face the Nation.”

    Priebus added that those candidates “gave [the RNC] their word” and used information provided by the party.

    He said that the process requires candidates to endorse the nominee if they want to be on the ballot in certain states, which could complicate matters in 2020 or 2024.

    “People in our party are talking about what we’re going to do about this,” Priebus said. “There is a ballot access issue in South Carolina. In order to be on the ballot in South Carolina, you actually have to pledge your support to the nominee, no matter who that person is. What’s the penalty for that? It’s not a threat. It’s just a question that we have a process in place.”

    “And if a private entity puts forward a process and has agreement with the participants in that process,” he continued, “then those participants don’t follow through with the promises that they made in that process, what should a private party do about that if those same people come around in four or eight years?”

    Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    The penalty for (political) apostasy is (political) death, apparently.

    Didn't they all sign a pledge to support the nominee? ANd Cruz/Jeb and other refuse to abide by it. Fuck them then.
    Keep changing the names. It doesn't change the meaning.

    SO as far as I am concerned the deplorable broke the deal & has it coming........

    One day they will be looked upon as some sorta heroes for not bowing down to the sob that usurped their party & is set to destroy everything they worked for over the last 30 years or so... That assumes the party even survives... The incompetent renee pubicus has orchestrated the demise of his own party as the deplorables scream crucify them, crucify them, give us trumpf, give us trumpf

    Trump is proof that Priebus has absolutely no control over the party.


    Empty threats.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    would be valid if kasich broke ranks for some principled thing but it was just to cram the tpp down our throats.

    it was hardball primary. 'Low energy" was actually apropos of Bush, as well as "Lieing Ted" for his robocalls that others had dropped out.

    The thing is they did make the pledge, and they knew Trump's characteristics. Not that I care about Republican party politics
    but that was manifest during the primary.

    Of course Trump went crazy with some of it, but as I've mentioned before I simply do not care about TrumpSpeak.
    Clinton is measured speech -and what does that get us as her as POTUS?
    She's the same thing she's always been (and now worse after her stint as Sec of State) - a lying, corrupt warmonger (etc).

    I really care little about how they speak - I do care how they will govern, and what their character is
