The chairman of the Illinois Republican Party is trying to get all Illinois delegates behind Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention.
Typically at convention breakfast events, the speakers get the crowd excited about the week ahead and their candidates.
Illinois Republican Party Chairman Tim Schneider is the party’s top cheerleader, and he’s got his work cut out for him.
Many Illinois Republicans strongly oppose Trump.
"Are you ready to take back the White House in 2016?" Schneider asked.
"Yeah," the crowd responded.
"Are we all here to support our nominee, Donald Trump?" Schneider asked. "Let’s go. Yes yes yes."
Another speaker to the Illinois Republican delegation this morning was a vice president for CSPAN -- who mostly talked about how CSPAN shows raw footage of congressional hearings.
