Cruz has no one but himself to blame for having to rely on sleaze to win delegates.

These rules were set 6 years or 6 months ago because these clowns want Paul Ryan & Mitt Romney to run in perpetuity and to screw over the likes of Trump.

It’s hard to belive 6 weeks ago 100% of Colorado GOP supported Ted Cruz. It’s just an anti Trump grouping of insiders.

More gaslighting from the GOPe and their shills in the media. The results in Colorado had nothing to do with ground game and everything to do with a rigged system.

When did ground game become a euphemism for bribing delegates and gaming the system?

Trump can’t run a campaign, but he’s somehow going to make an entire country “great again”?

Trump and his fans keep insisting he’s among the smartest, shrewdest, most competent men to ever seek the White House, yet his campaign keeps getting blindsided by rules that have been posted in plain sight for almost a year.

A point I have been making for some time. Donald Trump cannot manage a campaign, cannot find advisors and operatives who can, and whinges when his ego makes him look like a fool as he loses, yet he is the man touted who can run the biggest enterprise in the world, the American bureaucracy including the Defense Department, including the Veterans Administration, including millions of federal workers.

Even Donald Trump's ego is not big enough without actual talent. We cannot afford a national bankruptcy when that talent fails the ego.

Remember Trump is a very successful business man, not a slimy, lying politician. This is his first time in the process and he is doing very well.He only THOUGHT he knew how corrupt these people are. Even the voter’s are astounded at how brazen and underhanded the pack wolves have been. This tells the astute person that they fear the transparency he would bring to years of corrupt pay to play corrupt politics. Cruz is so desperate his actions and the trend they imply for his ethics in office is more than a little disturbing. Blaming Trump as he goes through a learning curve in one of the dirtiest professions that now openly laughs at the success of their steal the deal is very callous and reflects the increasing success of influencing voters using negative ads that imply and dance around facts. After all it makes the listener feel superior and saves them the work of checking out the facts. How often did Ben Carson implore voters to just read his website for information? Short term thinkers who are functioning idiots trained through education that encourages group think and fear of being out of norm. Easily swayed, easily influence, easily herded and easily moved into fearing the real change of problem solving. And losing their REPUBLIC and freedom as they cheer dirty tactics, make excuses like how stupid this successful businessman is as he works through this new to him process, and throwing it away in overflowing bucketfuls.

If we’re talking about “fairness,” Trump has gotten an enormous amount of media coverage for free because he’s good for ratings. In addition, the large number of candidates formerly in the race gave Trump an advantage. For example, in Florida, Trump got 44% of the vote and all 99 delegates because it’s a winner-take-all state. Votes that may have gone to Cruz went to a variety of other candidates. So, no, I do not think that Trump is being treated unfairly. Cruz is simply playing by the rules because he bothered to find out what the rules were ahead of time.

Cruz, by his own admission, is not “warm and fuzzy,” but he’s better organized. While it’s good to have a president with the media skills of Trump, it’s also good to have a well-organized person who thinks strategically like Cruz. This is particularly important in foreign relations, IMHO. I think the Donald relies too much on force of personality. Politics requires more than personality.

Cruz is nothing but a scheming cheat, a Clinton,
\and an Obama and a Soros, all rolled into one (1),
with his poor, entitled “wife1” named Heidi
who MUST be coPresident.

Wrong.

American already has Obama and Hillary.
