Republican leaders moved quickly to silence the effort — eager to present an image of unity despite a fractured party — and approved the rules on a debatable voice-vote that sparked a shouting match on the floor.
“Roll call vote, roll call vote,” members of the Colorado delegation chanted from their seats, far from the stage at the Quicken Loans Arena.
“Trump! Trump! Trump!” the New York billionaire’s supporters shouted in return.
Most of the Colorado delegation, as well as other sympathizers, staged a walkout to object to what it considered a power grab.
It’s the Republican National Disaster.
