If Colorado republicans want to change the rules by legit procedures go ahead for 2020.

It’s wrong to know the rules fail by the rules and then complain after you don’t get the results you want.

Thousands of people voted for the Cruz delegates this year by the rules.

Trump is the one trying to cheat

Exactly how is he trying to cheat? He has pointed out the obvious faults in the Colorado policy. He has not asked that he be given any votes to which he was not entitled but has brought to the surface a nationwide Republican (and Democrat) Party manipulation of popular voting to get the results the Elite of the parties desire. IOW he has unmasked the party dictators and their sycophants and they are the ones that don't like it. If you like living in North Cuba or North Venezuela that's your choice. Its not mine however.

“It’s wrong to know the rules fail by the rules and then complain after you don’t get the results you want.”

When the Trump campaign gets delegates disqualified because the CO GOP DIDN’T follow their own rules, I’m sure you and all the other Cruz supporter who have held the RULES to be sacrosanct will applaud. Trump is already filing challenges to several of the CO delegates who were not nominated according to the RULES.

http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/04/15/hillary-13/

“I’m the former Chairman of the Pueblo County Republican Party and the person who developed the Slates for National Delegates for the Trump team. The Colorado GOP website was filled with errors posted about the National Delegates,” Becky Mizel told Breitbart News.

Mizel took a photograph of a ballot in Congressional District 7 that included ONLY the ballot numbers of delegate candidates, NOT the names of the candidates as required by state bylaws.”

Actually Trump is getting exactly the result he wanted out of Colorado.

His campaign has known the rules all along, and known they were rigged, so once again, he sheds sunlight on the mold.

In the end, Trump is benefitting far far far more than Cruz in/from Colorado.

Keep watching - it's a common theme with Trump -> it's not so much that you have to out-argue your opponent. If your opponent is Corrupt (both Cruz and the Establishment (currently making babies together - gross!)) ... you don't argue against them - you just expose them to sunlight. It's how you get rid of mold.

Trump has done this over and over and over and over and over and over. Check yourself next time you call him incompetent. Always you say he is down, losing, incompetent ... yet always he is beating those who have been at the game their entire lives.

What do you think explains this phenomenon? Are we all - all of his supporters dumb, in a cult, in a bubble? We're not, so at some point you're going to have to admit you misread him and Cruz. Why not take that step now? Admitting one was mistaken is a sign of maturity, not flip flopping - so long as you do it in service of the truth rather than simple personal gain. Cruz had me going for a while too - never for pres - but for vice or atty gnl or something else - stand in the background a little for 8 years. But for me, even that is pretty much a 1 in 10 at this point, unless I see a radical change in him, some version of implicit or explicit penance and amends to those he's fooled and strung along - including you.

What would be the harm of letting all Republicans vote for ALL nominees, including President, on that June ballot? I’m sure that “delegates” would want to know the will of the voters they supposedly represent.

The GOPe loves them some Ted Bush. When they have real elections, Cruz generally loses but when they let party hacks decide Cruz generally wins. That tells me all I need to know about Calgary Ted.

Any fool can make a rule and every fool will follow it.
