The Never Trump movement was stopped in its tracks by a voice vote over convention rules by the Republican National Convention.
The rules were adopted in two voice votes over objections from anti-Trump delegates who were hoping for a state-by-state vote on rules that bind delegates to back Donald Trump.
The vote set off dueling chants of "roll-call vote" from the anti-Trump delegates and "USA" by Trump supporters.
Shouts of "shame" were also heard from the anti-Trump camp.

Anti-Trump delegate Ken Cuccinelli, a former VA Attorney General and advisor to Ted Cruz's campaign, threw down his credentials in his disgust at the chaos.

Watch Carl Cameron explain what went down, in the clip from The Five above.
Ben Carson also called the chaos "political theater" on Your World.
