Are you really a “new voter,” or are you “new” to the GOP?
Trump campaign theme: Waaaaaaaaaaa! We’re playing under the same rule set but it’s not fair!
What ‘vast majority’ are you talking about.
To date trump has garnered approximately 37% of the votes cast to date, while Cruz is at about 28%.
Neither is tearing the cover off the ball. To claim vast majority when the number is actually 37% is kind of out there.
You know that Heidi and Cruz money appeal, where Heidi days, “Five, ten, twenty,” and Cruz says, “Whatever you can, whatever you can.”?
Cruz campaign slogan: “Whatever it takes, whatever it takes.”
>Neither is tearing the cover off the ball. To claim vast majority when the number is actually 37% is kind of out there.
It’s a normal winning score in a 3 way race.

I love Cruz supporters. Every time you trivialize voters having their votes stolen someone resolves to never vote for Cruz again. You’re just so lovably tone deaf.
Yup! It fits!
Don’t complain about the party rules when you choose to run under its banner.
Don’t call yourself anti-establishment when you are sleeping with the GOPe.
This is the primary and caucus season, where it is delegates who, in almost all states, are proportional according to congressional districts - not state wide.
It's down to how one does in each congressional district that elects delegates for that county or district.
If Trump supporters here, at least, understood that, there could be less rancor, IMHO.
Again to posters, we don't live in a pure democracy, we live in a constitutional democratic republic.
There is no "stealing," or"vote rigging" going on, regardless of what Trump and some of you think!
As someone here or posting elsewhere said, this is a game of chess, while Trump is playing checkers and thinks the chess players are cheating!
Play by the rules of the game and hope to win or go home a sore loser.
What book on campaign tactics, strategy and overall philosophy did Cruz buy in bulk and distribute to each of his staffers, to act as a blueprint for how he intended to win the primary?
Cruz supporters are supposed to be all in for Cruz because he is a great supporter of the constitution. But they’re fine with a selection process run by party insiders with no votes of citizens.
It will be interesting to watch the general election when Cruz gets no votes of citizens.
“Trump may be upset but if he loses he will go back to his successful business and life. I am upset because if he loses I will be stuck with a candidate from the uniparty that will continue to destroy my nation and my freedoms.”
Many of us, including yours truly, are of the same mind.
Trump has secured 37% of the vote and has 46% of the delegates and all we hear is whining from the Trump and his supporters about fairness and how everybody is being mean to trump. Too Funny.
A smart guy like Trump (in case you don't know just how smart he is, just stand still for 30 seconds and he'll enlighten you) should read the rules before he puts his money down at the 21 table!
‘It will be interesting to watch the general election when Cruz gets no votes of citizens.’
Jeff Roe has a plan for that. It starts with ‘C’ and ends in ‘t.’
The middle letters are “hea.’

We understand completely. Ted Cruz lost at the ballot box and now is trying to steal the nom with the help of the establishment. How principled. How Anti-establishment.
Placing Cruz supporters into bound Trump delegate slots is Cruz’s bridge too far. Rightly, Trumpers have no interest in this nonsense. If it continues they will be unbound to the GOP in November. Guaranteed. Does Ted Cruz really want to gift wrap the Senate for Harry Reid’s going away present? Apparently so.
No Trump voters, no GOP. Understand?
Funny. How's Cruz doing? Oh yeah, that's right. He's too busy cutting backroom deals to take as much of that 46% as he can.
The Rude Awakening is coming Cruz fans....
Are you dodging my question because you don’t know the answer, or because you know the answer, and it mortifies you?
‘Ted Cruz lost at the ballot box and now is trying to steal the nom with the help of the establishment.’
AFTER going on the record to say Trump HAS to be defeated at the ballot box.
You’re right; no principles.
Do you live in a state that holds Primaries or Caucuses, may I ask?
Did you vote in either, if your state has held one, may I ask?
