Call it a high-tech lynching.
In the wake of Donald Trump’s being shut out in Colorado — final delegate count: Ted Cruz, 34; Trump, 0 — his fans have formed virtual mobs, and on Sunday a particularly passionate Twitter user tweeted out the home address and phone number of Steve House, chairman of the Colorado GOP.
House’s personal information has been retweeted more than 1,100 times. He says he’s received some 3,000 phone calls, most of them uncomplimentary:
Meanwhile, the same Trump partisan also tweeted information for the state’s national committeewoman, Lily Nuñez, and committeeman, George Leing. Of course, the brave Twitter user in question did all of this anonymously, and lots of other brave people have applauded — also anonymously.
The unsavory Trump fans in question appear to be multiplying: Something similar is already afoot in Indiana, which hasn’t even voted yet. Kyle Babcock, an at-large delegate selected at one of this weekend’s nine congressional-district conventions, made the mistake of explaining to the Indianapolis Star that he would not back Trump, because he believes Cruz stands a better chance against Hillary Clinton in November.
...
There is no indication that the Trump campaign was involved in these threats, but make no mistake: This effort started at the top. After floundering in the Centennial State, Trump took to Twitter to peddle his usual conspiracy theories: “The people of Colorado had their vote taken away from them by the phony politicians. . . . This will not be allowed!” With the help of sympathetic media outlets — the Drudge Report suggested that Iraqi elections were more fair than Colorado’s delegate-selection process) — his false allegations gained traction.

You are a little Trump arent you? Trump may not have posted this but he lead the way when he started giving out phone numbers. Trump is a bully plain and simple and so are some of his supporters like you.
They did not keep anyone from voting. Failure to understand the rules did.
Do you know any women? Sorry to ask but you seem to get your information from TV. Real women like real men, and if you know any, they will tell you they like Trump. That 75% figure is for weak thinkers.
That article does not explain crap. Didnt hit me at all on any of their so called points. And does not fit any of the Cruz supporters I know.
Truth is most of the Cruz supporters I know just dont trust Trump. I have heard him called many things but the most would be a con man out for himself. Just in it for the show and to make himself look good and leading the people along.
That is what most of the Cruz supporters think that I personally know.
So now I’m suppose to believe Trump is using “The Force” to control his supporters.
Oh brother.
Gosh I think so I have been married for 22 years. My wife calls Trump a idiot.
So yes I do know at least one women. Really what kind of question is that? There are more women on earth than men.
Thank you.
Not everything in favor of Trump is started by the Trump campaign. It’s a movement.
I saw nothing about this is the morning papers. Are they still trying to decide whether sewer rats have ethics?

Bully?
The names have been publicly posted in the newspaper and on a nonpartisan website that has been tracking elections for 20 years. TeamCruz kept feeding them delegate results as they wrangled them. There is no super top secret list.
It’s all in your head.
Real women, smart women and all women who value their personal safety and security value real men. It’s a natural survivalist way of thinking.
Vote Trump!
Quite possible he didn’t “snub” them but heard what they had done and realized it was meaningless to spend time there. I’m sure his information sources are far and wide. At least wait for wildflower season.
Maybe there is a lawsuit. He did mention today in Rome, NY, that they raised a ruckus in Florida to get the delegates back.
Trump defends the Constitution in every single speech. If you would watch one once in a while you would know that. Or else you are just lying. Possible.
Why dont you post as a Cruz supporter for awhile? Dont attack any one and see how many insults you get and tell me who the bullies are?
Trump routinely attacks people and he is not a bully, right. I cant see how he even get 25% favorable ratings with women. It is a real turn off to women to bully someone. Yes women like a strong man but not a strong bully. And that is what Trump is a bully. Just like a good chunk of his supporters.
And who is the Trump guy who was going to post room numbers of the Cruz supporters in Cleveland? Who was the candidate giving out phone numbers in his speeches? Dont give me this crap about not giving out contact info. Trump wants it out for one reason and that is intimidation.
It is a tactic the left uses all the time to get there way. It is totally disgusting that some one has to stoop that low to get elected. Why cant Trump show the voter why his way is best? Instead he goes and insults people right and left and relies on voter intimidation just like the black panthers did in philly.
And not only does he personally attack people but his goons do it as well on twitter, facebook and anything else they can.
And the Tenth. And separation of powers.
You spew and spin like a Cruz delegate or GOPe hack ...are you a Cruz delegate or GOPe hack ? ...come on , full disclosure ...
“Maybe there is a lawsuit”
LOL! Everytime Trump fails, he screams ‘lawsuit’!
Maybe the law has been broken. Could happen.
Should Hillary be the Dem nominee, she doesn't have rabidly staunch/loyal supporters, her negatives are high, the young, Hispanics, and yes, even blacks don't like her.
Cruz has almost as high negatives as Trump has and he doesn't attract crossover voters, nor are his supporters as loyal as Trump's! And he has absolutely NO chance of beating Hillary; NONE! So HOW does Cruz overcome THAT ?
