GOP should come together behind Trump

Posted March 11, 2016 12:00 am

Why do many Republican leaders want to derail Donald Trump's nomination against the will of their party voters? Why don't they let the democratic process play out and support the democratic values that we have learned from our great president Abraham Lincoln? Mr. Trump has been the darling of the Republican primary and caucus goers. It is evident by the wins he has had in a majority of the states in recent primaries, and in almost all the polls since all this started.

Republican leadership should listen to the will of their people and let Donald run against the Democratic Party's nomination.

Instead of obstructing Donald's candidacy, perhaps Republican leaders should learn that they need to make their party more inclusive so this does not happen again. For now, it is too late.
