Trump is like a pigeon on a chessboard. Instead of playing the game set out before him, he struts about knocking over pieces, crapping on the board and then declares himself the winner.

The winner is NOT the person who gets CLOSEST to 1237. Whether Trump and his supporters like it or not, a candidate must get at least that number. So far Trump is doing very little to win supporters past the first round of voting. So, instead of whining that Cruz is “stealing” delegates, don’t you think that he might ought to think beyond the first round of voting and act accordingly?

Thanks to Cruz’s massive delegate theft I’m quite confident Trump will hit 1237. Cruz is always playing dirty tricks to win the party battle while he loses the war with the public.

On how many threads are you going to post the pigeon-on-a-chessboard thing? We “heard” it the first time. And, BTW, you’re just too cute for words.

Colorado’s 34 delegates should be disallowed and deducted from the 1237 number.

What many of you fail to see is this is all a moot point. It is coming down to being mathematically impossible for Ted Cruz to take this nomination outright with the number of remaining delegates (needs 88% of the remaining delegates).

If Cruz had the decency to bow out like Santorum did in 2012 when he needed 75% of the delegates remaining, this would all be a moot point. But many of us have discovered, Ted Cruz is NOT a decent man.

The only logical reason for Cruz to stay in this is to help the GOPe undermine the will of the people.

But, Donald doesn't know the rules, so it's unfair to make him play by them...

Maybe if he wasn't trying to be the first Twitter President, he might have figured this out a long time ago...
