Colbert Likens GOP to a Broken Marriage If They Push with Brokered Convention

COLBERT: "But if Cruz can't do it, there is one other way to deny Trump the nomination: A brokered convention. You see, when a candidate wins a primary, he wins delegates who are committed to him at the party convention, but only for the first ballot. So if Donald Trump doesn't get 1,237 delegates in the first round of voting, they're all free it on vote for whoever. Great news. The Republican campaign could start all over again-- only this time crammed into a week. So you can binge watch the death of the GOP. Of course,-- of course, Republicans don't like calling it a brokered convention. They have a much nicer name."
SPICER [video]: "From an R.N.C. Perspective, we're going to continue to prepare for all contingencies, including an open convention."
HEWITT [video]: "I think it's an open convention."
FOX NEWS GUEST [video]: "We could have an open convention."
COLBERT: "I'm sorry, not brokered, open. Just like, "Honey, we don't have a broken marriage. We have an open marriage. And I know we never discussed it, but it'll spice things up to bring in an outsider. And I think we'll end up trusting each other even more. Stronger. Stronger."
