NEVER TRUMP ZOMBIES RETURN FROM THE DEAD AFTER HUGH HEWITT CALLS FOR CONVENTION RULES CHANGE

In proof that a week can be an eternity in politics, it seemed it was only a days ago that it appeared that the Never Trump movement was dead and buried. William Kristol was promoting a National Review chump named David French, Mitt Romney had slinked off in defeat and Republicans were lining up to unify behind Trump albeit grudgingly. Then the media firestorm over Judge Gonzalo Curiel erupted, the mutiny began and the Never Trump zombies havearisen anew to wreak havoc. Today nationally syndicated radio host Hugh Hewitt – you may remember him from his role in the early CNN debates – called for a change in convention rules that would lead to a toppling of Trump at next month’s Republican party convention.

“And right now the Republican Party is facing — the plane is headed towards the mountain after the last 72 hours,” he said.

Hewitt’s call to arms serves to confirm suspicions that many establishment Republicans who had thrown with Trump out of political expedience were as lacking in sincerity as they were devoid of principles. It was hard to believe that there wouldn’t be some sort of effort – however covert it may have been – to screw the presumptive nominee out of the nomination at the convention. The great American rally around the Mexican flag-draped Judge Curiel has conjured the undead and the movement to derail the Trump revolution is back with a vengeance.
