from today's NYT:

Republican leaders adamantly opposed to Donald J. Trump’s candidacy are
preparing a 100-day campaign to deny him the presidential nomination,
starting with an aggressive battle in Wisconsin’s April 5 primary and
extending into the summer, with a delegate-by-delegate lobbying effort
that would cast Mr. Trump as a calamitous choice for the general election.

Recognizing that Mr. Trump has seized a formidable advantage in the
race, they say that an effort to block him would rely on an array of
desperation measures, the political equivalent of guerrilla fighting.

There is no longer room for error or delay, the anti-Trump forces say,
and without a flawlessly executed plan of attack, he could well become
unstoppable.

But should that effort falter, leading conservatives are prepared to
field an independent candidate in the general election, to defend
Republican principles and offer traditional conservatives an alternative
to Mr. Trump’s hard-edged populism. They described their plans in
interviews after Mr. Trump’s victories last Tuesday in Florida and three
other states.

Defend Republican principles..."I've got mine, so...**** you."

On a more serious note, this is still hilarious. If Trump gets the
nomination, the Repugnants lose and if the Repugnants keep Trump from
getting the nomination...the Repugnants lose.
