Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, says Donald Trump complaining about the way Colorado's delegates were chosen is "distracting." Priebus said it "really isn't something that most people give a darn about." Priebus said not moving past this is this gets in the way of unifying the party.
Priebus tried to distance himself from the controversial process, saying he doesn't write the rules for the Republican party, "the delegates at the convention write the rules." However, Priebus defended the process and said it's "pretty much the same system the Democrats use; delegates and voters choose the nominee."

When those disgruntled Trump voters stay home in November it will look like Custer’s Last Stand in Colo.
Priebus really is an idiot. The GOP has him as a point person to calm the fears of 8 million Trump voters. The party’s over Priebus...the party’s over.
Hey Priebus - what if they ‘wrote the rules’ cancelling all elections?
Most people don’t give a darn whether Reince works for the RNC or McDonalds.
“pretty much the same system the Democrats use”
So we can add Priebus to the list of elitists from back East who don’t care about flyover states. And to the list of people who are willing to lie about our process for their political gain.
The Democrats have caucuses, assemblies etc. just like us but they used basically the opposite system for assigning delegates. The disposition of Colorado’s Democrat delegates was decided and posted last month. Their caucus was the same night as ours. They had a straw poll and assigned their delegates based on the results of the straw poll.
No they didn’t, but Trump’s candidacy brought to light a tyranny that has been in place for years.
'When Don gets his way then it must be OK.', Trump's theme
Good one. LOL
What Reince, Ted Cruz, Cruz's bitter-enders - and the Democrats for that matter - don't understand is that Trump is ALREADY president.
Whether he gets the Republican nomination for the general or not, Trump has set himself up as the voice of the disenfranchised - us "little people" enemies that the Uniparty hates and fears.
If Trump is outside the government, he's got a ready-made position to rain mortar shells down on the Uniparty for four years, and they WILL get tired of it.
If he REALLY cares about what he's up to, he'll set up his own mini Media DeathStar to take on the Uniparty and its Media DeathStar.
Best ... Election ... Year ... EVER!!!
Trump has ALREADY won.
Treump has already won the presidency, as I detailed in my post #50. Go to your cruzer Safe Space. :)
I’m not the sharpest blade...what has he, or we, won, if we don’t get the presidency nor do we replace the uniparty with real patriots?
unless a violent revolution is in the works down the line.
Also, Trump has said he will go back to running his business if he loses.
Would love to understand the positive outcome. Just don’t see it.
AHHH, so Trump is already POTUS...how about that.
Don't worry, the nurse is on her way with your meds.
A Reinse and a spin cycle
Reminds me of some other Republicans
My bad. :)
Wear long pants! :)
