RNC Chair: Roger Stone’s Threat of Terrorizing Delegates Is Not ‘Appropriate’

‘It’s not helpful’

DICKERSON: "Do you think Donald Trump is just not very good at that second stage part of the process?" 
PRIEBUS: "It’s not matter of good or bad just matter of the facts being that each campaign has to go into each of these states and work with the party and the grass roots, if they want to have 100% of everything they want to have happen they have to be 100% committed to each of these states and how they select delegates." 
DICKERSON: "Is Donald Trump’s ally, Roger stone, who has worked with him over the years, has threatened to send out the room numbers of any delegate who is pledged to trump on the first ballot but then switches, what do you make that have?" 
PRIEBUS: "Yeah, it’s not helpful. It’s not — I don’t find it to be an appropriate threat and I’m committed to making sure that the delegates have a great week, that they have a fun week. But a constructive week and safe week. We’re going to do that. We’ll have plenty of security, plenty of protection for all the delegates. We’ll be prepared. It will be a great convention. It will be historic convention. And either way whether we have presumptive nominee beforehand or at the convention it’s going to be a great week. I no that if everyone here understands that we’re watching American history." 
DICKERSON: "All right. Chairman priebus we thank you for being with us."
