These delegates have been organizing from the bottom up. Their movement has more momentum than anyone thought possible a few weeks ago.

They don’t have to do much. They don’t have to attack or oppose Trump publicly. All they have to say is that delegates should vote their conscience, that doing so is in the finest traditions of the party, and that Republicans don’t bully other Republicans.
