Yep - Trump had an ad the other night asking folks to call a 800 number to say that they shouldn’t use a contested convention to rob the rightful winner of the nomination - both the wife and I called it.

The Resolution by the Colorado GOP party to block Trump from before the Primary and the bragging they did it right after are evidence of fraud. Arguably Trump, the voters, Kaisch etc have ground to challenge all of them and remove them.

It would not be surprising to find more such Party insider organized denial are found to have happened in other States allowing for more challenges.

Maybe Trump can hire some Mossad interviewers to help identify the double-agents Cruz and the GOPe have inserted into Trump’s delegates. Once Identified charge them with committing fraud for money.

Party members aren’t allowed to have opinions? That constitutes “fraud”?

You Trumpers are hysterical.

Um no, Tea Party is not backing Cruz obviously (see the South). So that meme fails bad. Colorado was NeverTrump, not pro-Cruz, that’s GOPe; not Tea Party.

Claiming to represent and taking money from the Registered republicans of the state, openly planning in writing to deny one candidate who is the most popular in the country, creating rules and structure designed to block voters from having a meaningful choice in who is selected, then bragging they did it again in writing. Likely enough to support the challenge.

Again, politicians are allowed to have opinions. If a faction circulated a petition that isn’t fraud. It wasn’t even adopted by the convention, so it’s a big nothingburger.

And Colorado has used the delegate system forever. The only thing that changed was the non-binding presidential preference primary was dropped since the national GOP outlawed non-binding primaries.

It’s not fraud when a private organization sets its own rules and then follows them. The same thing was done in Hawaii, but you don’t hear Trump complaining about that.

Cause he won.

They didn’t “block voters” they engaged them in the process at the delegate level. And, guess what?, it wouldn’t be fraud if they didn’t have any voting at all.

Cause it is a private organization.

You are defending the party open and admitted denial of the voters having a choice then bragging they did it. No matter how much spin and pounding the table you do its hurting both the Supporters of the defenders of the corrupt party and Cruz at this point. Please keep digging that hole.

So, when Trump only got 45.72% of the vote in Florida, but took 100% of the delegates....did you scream about the ‘unfair rules’?
So, when Trump only got 45.95%% of the vote in Arizona, but took 100% of the delegates....did you scream about the ‘unfair rules’?
So, when Trump won Missouri by less than 1/4 of 1%, but took 71% of the delegates....did you scream about the ‘unfair rules’?
So, when Trump only got 47.24% of the vote in Mississippi, but took 62.50% of the delegates....did you scream about the ‘unfair rules’?
So, when Trump only got 38.84% of the vote in Illinois, but took nearly 80% of the delegates....did you scream about the ‘unfair rules’?
Or how about when Trump only won 32.51% of the vote in South Carolina, but he took 100% of the delegates.....was that ‘unfair’?

Who is it that’s getting hosed by the rules???

That’s what I thought. Class dismissed.

“Um no, Tea Party is not backing Cruz obviously (see the South). So that meme fails bad. Colorado was NeverTrump, not pro-Cruz, that’s GOPe; not Tea Party.”

I founded and run one of the largest tea party groups in CO. I know most of the other leaders of the other large tea party groups in CO. I can tell you with certainty that Cruz is the overwhelming favorite among tea party folks here in CO. It’s not even close.

So why were so many on the steps yesterday saying the opposite?

No he has some TP still, the ones who have not yet figured out who and what he is. But most have seen thru the facade and know hes just another DC Insider playing the Tea Party to get elected.

Its taking massive self-delusion to ignore he’s nothing more then the GOPe NeverTrump tool.

Class discredited.

The “rules” were designed in all those states to block Trump as the outsider from getting any delegates. He was not supposed to win. The Establishment person was supposed to win.

Trump did not work hand in hand with State party leaders to ensure he won

He did not have use of the State party machine for his ground game.

Unlike the Bush/Cruz camp, Trump’s ground game consists mostly of regular people not party insiders.

The fact is the Rules are intentionally designed to block outsiders from getting the nomination. Trump by being so popular and self-funding is able to circumvent the “rules” and win the popular votes in those states.

All you listed were where the GOPe tried to shaft any outsider but their plan backfired.

If Donald Trump told you to jump off a cliff would you?

I think we have figured out your problem. If your news sources claim it was low turnout when there are videos of the crowd online there is a information vacuum preventing the discernment of reality.

I’ll say it again: there are a lot of good people twisting themselves into mental & moral pretzels to justify supporting Trump at all costs.

Funny, we see people like you twisting yourself into contortions to defend the planned first president of the CFR’s North American Union. When shown how the only thing hes been consistent at is selling out America to the Globalists you double down on the attacks. Look in the Mirror.

Its America vs the Globalists and you are on the wrong side.
