BOOM EXCLUSIVE WOW BOMBSHELL OUTRAGEOUS CHEATING STEALING!!!
Donald Trump inexplicably waited until YESTERDAY to name a State Political Director in California.
The California primary on June 7 could determine whether Trump reaches the magic 1237 majority delegate number prior to the July convention. By all reports, Cruz is far ahead in the ground game in California, which awards delegates not only on the statewide vote but also by congressional district.
Even if Trump wins the state, he may underperform in enough congressional districts due to Cruz’s superior campaign preparation that Trump is stopped short. Or he may fail to file delegate slates in all districts.
Erick Erickson reports:
Ted Cruz has been laying ground [work] in California for a year. Donald Trump? His campaign is just starting and they have a deadline on May 7th. Literally Donald Trump just hired his California political director yesterday.That deadline? The candidates in California get to submit delegates from each congressional district. If a candidate wins a congressional district, his delegates get to vote. It took Cruz more than 5 months to find delegates in all of California’s congressional districts. Cruz found 169 delegates and 169 alternates, which is a complete slate of delegates and alternates. Trump is just starting and the deadline to turn in his list is May 7th.

"Clearly Cruz is stealing California by having Trump wait this long to hire state Pol Director."

Well, BOOB, think of how much you could have helped Cruz’s campaign by volunteering to help get his ground game organized instead of posting your steady stream of snarky anti-Trump posts. Of course, Fidilito may be personally content with what you are doing and perhaps Daddy would not let you out of the basement long enough to help organize a groundgame.
You would think that as a real estate developer, attention to the details of the rules would be second nature to him. Every building he puts up must have its own unique sets of zoning restrictions and weird riders that he has to follow.
Why is he unable to figure this out or at least hire people who can do it for him. This should be right in his wheelhouse.
Since you are big on doors and psycho babes here’s one you can understand.
Door A: Ted Cruz
Door B: Donald Trump
Waaaay more people vote for Trump. Sucks to be Cruz.
Rofl!
Trumpies to vote June 8.
No, and no. But you have to play the cards you're dealt. A realist deals first with the situation as it is.
Also, do you think the will of today's voters is consistent with the Republic as created and defined by the Constitution?

Cruz Ground Game = FR spam by Hillary supporters and GOP operatives stealing delegates.
Trump don’t need pay attention to no stinkin rules.
You have hit on the true weakness of Ted Cruz. He is a schemer. People like Cruz are not in the Presidential race because they want to save the country. They just want to be President. There is a big difference between Cruz and Trump. Trump has been sitting by for years hoping somebody else would step in and do the job. He finally looked around and realized nobody was going to so he threw his hat in the ring.
This is the leadership our country needs. Ted Cruz is not a leader he is an obstructionist. That is any he never accomplishes anything.
Every building he puts up must have its own unique sets of zoning restrictions and weird riders that he has to follow.
According to Trump, he buys political favors to get by and ahead.
It’ll be interesting to see if Trump tries (belatedly) to put together a ground operation in CA or will opt instead to come up with some elaborate story in advance about how he was cheated should he not do well. That way, he’ll have his woe-is-me story ready and won’t have to put out the effort and money to try to compete on the ground.
“Erick Erickson reports:”
LOL
Ted’s going have to have a talk with God when this is over.
kamicruz-E.. has ingenious plan to get stop Trump and get an establishment candidate elected— woo-hoo— /s
You ask a good question and the answer might be that he does know the rules and he gains when Cruz keeps winning voterless elections.. California on the other hand is a different story— he will likely need some of those delegates to reach 1237.. if he screws up in cali, then you will know it was not part of a strategy..
Trump has a Twitter account, he doesn’t need a ground game.../ S
Nor do two of Trump’s children.
They did not register in time in NY, so they canNOT vote for their father in the NY primaries. :)
Some Trumpsters defy logic. But other Trumpsters are very sharp people. Some lack knowledge of the process. Some dont.
Not all Trumpsters are the same.
Not all Cruzers are the same.
“Not all Trumpsters are the same.
Not all Cruzers are the same.”
It would be quite interesting to see a cross-tabulation of NeverCruzers and NeverTrumpers, by signup date.
