After Donald Trump became the presumptive Republican presidential nominee with a victory in Tuesday night’s Indiana primary, Republican National Committee Chair Reince Priebus tried his best to rally the party behind Trump.<\/p>\n

During a Wednesday morning interview on CNN’s "New Day," co-host Alisyn Camerota asked Priebus, "Did you ever think this is where you would be this morning?"<\/p>\n

"You know, I didn’t, but I don’t think that\u2019s necessarily bad. You know what? I think something different and something new is probably good for our party," he replied. "And look, I don’t think anyone predicted what happened. So look, we’re here. We’re going to get behind the presumptive nominee."<\/p>\n

Priebus has spoken with Trump over the phone, but would not reveal much about his conversation with the candidate on CNN. But the RNC chair indicated that Trump will have to align himself with the Republican party platform\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The only way to stop him from getting the nomination now is for the Party to change the convention rules to release pledged delegates in the fist round and install an establishment Republican, but I don\u2019t see that happening.  To do so would disenfranchise their base of hate mongers. Their response would be armed revolt.  The Republican Party fears the monster they created.<\/font><\/p>\n

So all I can do now is admit I was wrong and change his name to something more befitting a presumptive Republican Presidential Nominee.  Instead of Fecal Dump Trump. he is now Rump Dump Trump.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
