The GOP created a rule where they wanted to pick their own guy, deny the voters, and then stop who they do not want and they think people will not get so pissed off with what they are seeing and then they expect to think we will vote in the general!!!

What is all this "deny the voters" crap in Georgia?

Look, Trump didn't even win 40% of the vote in Goergia, and the people who voted for candidates other than Trump are just as much entitled to have their votes counted as are Trump supporters. They don't fall off the face of the earth just because their candidate dropped out.

Here's the truth: Trump won 38.8% of the vote in Georgia. But Cruz and Rubio combined won 48%. So when the Cruz and Rubio supporters unite as they have every right to do at these conventions, they significantly outnumber the Trump supporters, and so elect the delegates of their choice.

People who voted for candidates who are no longer in the race are just as much a part of the electorate as anyone else. And if the delegates those people elected prefer to support Cruz over Trump, that is perfectly legitimate, and not the least bit undemocratic.

They have been cramming nominees down our throats for years, and expecting us to sit down, shut up, and vote for them. I no longer think it matters to them if they win or the Democrats win, they are all bedfellows in D.C.

What they did not count on was people beginning to wake up, I am pretty sure they still are not convinced.

At this point I don’t put anything past them.
