“....................Most of the people at the Trump event had attended caucuses earlier in the evening. At those caucuses, the presiding officer asked whether there was a representative from each campaign present to speak, and, if not, whether anyone attending would like to speak on a particular candidate’s behalf. At the caucus I attended, in Pleasant Hill, a suburb just east of Des Moines, there was no one to speak for Trump — no representative of the campaign — and no voter willing to stand up and speak on his behalf. (The precinct ended in a Cruz landslide: 110 votes for the Texas senator, versus 36 for Trump and 34 for Rubio.)
At the Sheraton, some Trump supporters had similar stories.
“We were at a caucus and Trump didn’t even have anyone there to speak for him,” one man told me.
“That’s insane,” added a man nearby.
Two words: Ground Game.
That is of a piece with the Trump captain who complained Thursday that the campaign hadn’t give her her phone list of voters to call for the caucus (Monday night.) It shows the utterly poor organization of the Trump campaign.
