State Sen. Bill Brady of Bloomington, who was a delegate candidate for Bush, said he will keep his pledge to “back our party’s nominee, because any one of our candidates would be better than the Democrat alternative” – referring to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is considered a virtual lock to win the Democratic nomination.

Priebus also responded to questions about Trump’s truthfulness with regard to whether or not he posed as his own publicist in 1991, as well as whether a New York Times report published on Saturday on how Trump treats women gave Priebus pause. Could 2016 be a historic moment where for the first time ever, a female USA president is elected by the American public? However, members of the “stop Trump” movement said they believe it is still possible to have a legal challenge to gain entrance on the Texas ballot.
