why should he be nice to reince priebus? >> it gets him the extra 150 delegates he needs when he get to the convention. >>s >> unless he gets them ahead of time. >> sure. but there's the trump vote and non-trump vote. the non-trump vote was scattered over 5, 10, 15 candidates. now it can be a more binary choice. but even now the growth stock is the non-trump portion. he hasn't won a contest over 50%. he should be nice to reince priebus because the rnc gives its nominee data and money and everything, all the kings horses and all the kings money you need as a nominee. you can't go it alone as a republican nominee. >> kellyanne is right. and david is absolutely right. if he does win the nomination, he would have spent the last six months attacking the establishment he needs in his corner to win. and if you talk to those donors, even though he's worth $4 billion or $10 billion, however much he's worth, people aren't going to want to give him money, they're not going to want to knock on doors or pass out leaflets. he has to be ca

lou: reince priebus's 47 went away, 72 according to the exit polls.ever has the most votes which is what trump is saying gets the nomination. >> the polls show 70 to 75% of republicans believe it. lou: i get a kick out of the reaction of trump to reince priebus, you know, well, debriefing the republican conference on capitol hill today, telling the house republicans, that you know, rules are rules and all of that. at the same time, paul ryan comes out and says, reince is doing a good job, fellow wisconsin, member of the wisconsin media. what does trump say? he has not made a determination yet, said mr. trump, about mr. priebus's future with the rnc. >> the only issue i take again, and i don't mean to be arguing with you every single night. lou: how many night? 20 years? >> the law, the law by the rnc said you have to have the majority of delegates as a democrat or republican to be the nominee of the party. lou: as you know, no one is more law abiding or respectful of the status quo than i. >> i understand. lou: you betcha. ed rollins, michael goodwin,

reince priebus joins with the possibility of a contested convention. >> we will ask our sunday panel whether the stop donald trump movement is gaining momentum as ted cruz crucials ahead. >> and only in america could something like this happen. aall right now on fox news sunday. >> hello, from fox news in washington. >> donald trump has seemed bullet proof surviving and thriving on one thing after another but it is catching up and he trails for polling in business. open friday we sat down for a candid and contentious interview at trump tower in new york. >> welcome back to fox news. >> thank you. >> this may sound harsh, but are you in the process of blowing director campaign for president? >> i don't think so. i got great polls from nbc, nationwide, we are doing very well. you have been thinking about or asking me that question numerous times over the last, since june 16. that statement has been made many times and i end up having higher poll numbers. >> you talk about polls so we will talk about some. in a wisconsin poll a month ago you were leading ted cruz by continue points. in

we'll see what rnc chairman reince priebus has to say. plus new battleground tracker polling we'll talk to dr. anton knee fauci about the zika virus here in the u.s. all coming up on "face the nation." captioning sponsored by cbs good morning welcome to "face the nation" i'm john dickerson. the new york primary is two days away, according to our cbs news battleground trammer the forecast is looking good for the front runners. donald trump leads republican field by more than 30 points. and ted cruz and john say sick are in a tight race. things look promising in the keystone fate for donald trump, too. 20 point lead at 46%, cruz and kasich are in close race for second with 26 and 23% support among republican primary voters. california is one of the last stops on the primary calendar, could be where donald trump goes over the top with the 1237 delegates he needs to secure the nomination. with 49% support. fuzz comes in at 31%, john kasich is at 16. turning now to the race for the democratic nomination, hillary clinton spent most of her weeke

reince priebus said you have the votes or you don't. i'm not sure if he was talking about votes from primary voters or voters from delegates by state parties? i think this process has been illuminating on americans about this primaries work. it is not a democratic system in a lot of ways. there are archaic rules. in that regard, donald trump has a potent argument that he has come out and done well in the states and he has had more people vote for him and why isn't it just his. that will be a hard thing to counter for republicans who don't like him. >> it is a lot of talk, zach, that the magic number may not be 1,237. if he gets close, maybe some of the unbound delegates will put him over the top in cleveland. sean spicer and others said 1,237 is 1,237. >> there are a lot of delegates at the republican level who can basically are not bound. going to pennsylvania, they elect a bunch who can change their mind. there are not a ton of them, but enough to put him over the edge in the first ballot. >> let's talk about the rnc meetings in flori

where does this put the leadership, including reince priebus? >> this comes at a very sensitive moment because donald thesehas been leveling activations against reince priebus and his allies that somehow the system is rigged against him. he says it will take power away from those who would oversee the convention and give it more to the grassroots. the way this rule would work is, individual delegates will be given more power to determine how proceedings would go on the floor. a time that a delicate wants to object, they have to be recognized by the presiding chair. ,he person overseeing this which is a role that will be filled by paul ryan will have less power. usually the presiding officer is able to dictate how things go. you have toound recognize each and every delegate should they have an objection. >> the next rules committee will be made up of delegates attending the convention and weak leader in cleveland. explain the difference. the only people who can set rules for the convention are the rules committee that's going to be at the convent

he's left the door open in yet another interview to replacing reince priebus as chairman if he would become the nominee. you don't speak for reince, i know you speak for the rnc, but are you nervous about your job? >> no, i'm not and i'll tell you why preponderance priebus was elected nan miscellaneously. he will serve until january of 2017 because those are the people who elect the chairman, but more importantly i think the bigger issue is this. any candidate that got the nomination would beg reince priebus to stay as chairman because he's been so successful. i mean, under this chairman we've put together the best resource and staff and equipped political party in the history of the united states. when you look at our field operation and our opposition research on hillary clinton and potentially bernie sanders, it's amazing. we're the gold started of political parties. i think any candidate would be lucky to have reince priebus as a chairman and they should be begging him to keep continuing the success that he's had. >> maybe gold-plated fik fixtured on airplanes meets the gold stand

this is not what reince priebus signed up for. you can see his frustration spilling over into swifter when he says the rules were in place, it's up to campaigns to understand them, complain now? give us all a break. so clearly reince priebus is frustrated, but for donald trump this is probably a good argument to make to his voters. he keeps sewiowing these seeds discontent until he faces the prospect of the nomination going to someone else. he keeps telling voters this system has been stacked against me. the rnc is out to get me. and you should be angry about that. even though party leaders are frustrated with donald trump saying it's up to you to understand the rules, to average voters, the rules seem a bit archa archaic, and it is mystifying that if you get the most votes you don't get the most delegates. >> colleen, trump loves to use the word loser. and ted cruz has used that word against him. he spoke on the glenn beck radio show. have a listen. >> donald is a very sore loser. he doesn't handle losing well. he throws a fit. d

reince priebus had to oversee caucuses and primary system or a punch is thrown.ty says the 44 group wisconsinite who started in politics as a high school campaign volunteers survey data for the times study by a cold midwestern temperament and intimate knowledge of party and convention goals. >> former chairman of the rnc can no longer serving moderate chairman in history. he seen it all. he spent three convention before. he's been tested on the state level and national level. please balanced a lot of disparate interests. reporter: first elected chairman in 20 about then and now his third term, reince priebus is the ultimate gop insider and a party dominated by frustrated members clamoring for outsiders. probably the toughest job in politics right now. >> i think it is a tough job. after six years of being chairman of gotten used to in many cases not being loved by a lot of people. lauren: peter barnes, thank you for this story. nicole: the uconn women's national chance she had last night making it a record four in a row. >> i'm not sure what words you can use to

reince priebus said it will not be trump or cruz. so by his refusing to say trump or cruz -- no, you come on, that's the chairman. what do you think? >> he said it's somebody who's running. last time i checked, donald trump and ted cruz are running. >> he would not say trump or cruz. he would always say someone one's running. what's wrong with saying the top to go-getters. mary anne, what is your take on? >> there are two points here, judge. the fact is donald trump, to control his destiny, needs to get to 1,237 delegates on june 7th. if he does that and the republicans try to move the goalpost, there will be an apocalypse in cleveland, number one. number two, reince priebus won't say that because there's a little wisconsin bubble going on trying to deny trump the nomination. it started with governor walker when he endorsed the him in wisconsin, he doesn't want cruz but wants to stop trump. reince priebus oversees the rnc. but who overseas the republicans? paul ryan. paul ryan is frank underwood. i don't want to be speaker but i'm sp

because it is very, very new for them and, frankly probably for reince priebus himself. he's never been through this either. >> yeah, i think it is so complicated. even journalists are having to learn all of the rules of each state an u.s. territories and how different they are. and for example, in colorado where they don't even have a primary or a caucus anymore. so do you expect right now that we are going to have a contested convention? is that what your gut says? >> well, look. there is a much higher possibility than there's ever been in my lifetime. but it is not a certainty by any stretch. donald trump could win 1,237 delegates and therefore get a majority before we get there. he could go a long way toward that tonight when they count the votes in new york. does he win all 95 delegates or does he get fewer than that? we got about 15 states to go. and he could get to the top. if he doesn't, then there's going to be a contested convention and we'll see what happens. but i think the chance, we shouldn't rule out the chance that trump can get 1,237 but we have to prepa

this is not reince priebus at all. this is the colorado state g.o.p. right?this is the colorado state g.o.p. but, look, there is two rules wg about here. there is the rules that each state gets to set on how they want to run their primary or caucus or convention. but then there are a whole other set of rules on how govern the convention there is a lot of overlap there because you can set a rule right before the convention. they can change the rules. >> but that's in july. >> that's in july. >> we haven't even gotten to that fight. >> right. but a lot of those rules are important for how many delegates a person has, how many states a person has. whether they won the majority of delegates in a certain amount of states. all those rules can still be changed. and i think that's where trump's forces could have a bigger. >> could be a fight on who gets to be on that rules committee. >> right. exactly. who would have thought that the rules committee would be the focus of this campaign in a campaign where the spotlight is really on getting that 1237 number of delegate
