Trump backers: 'There will be war' over disputed delegates | 03 April 2016 | Death threats, protests and allegations of vote-stealing didn't stop Tennessee Republican Party leaders on Saturday from finalizing a list of delegates to the GOP's national presidential nominating convention over fierce objections from backers of Donald Trump…The measure, approved by a tally of 40-25, comes a day after the Trump campaign [accurately] accused the party of trying to “steal” delegates, even after he handily won the state's primary last month. On Saturday Trump's backers flocked to the party's executive committee meeting in Nashville, doubling down on allegations that officials are trying to stack Tennessee's delegation with members likely to vote for another candidate if given the chance…Robert Swope, Metro councilman for the Fourth District, met with the crowd of Trump supporters outside the meeting. He said a rule change that occurred Saturday morning allowed for the meeting to be closed to the public. “Trust me, there will be a war,” he said of the delegate list to be discussed in the meeting.
