The delegate process of the Republican and Democrat party is corrupt. Both are designed to give the party leaders the ability to decide the winner despite the the wishes of the voters.

It should be noted that Trump won all the Florida delegates due to the rules of the Florida Republican Party Rules. Trump had no problem with this. However when the the rules of other States did not benefit him he raised hell over the unfairness of the process.

Trump knew the rules when he started this race. He does not have the luxury to decide which rules are fair or unfair to him, that is the province of the local state Republican parties which are also as corrupt as he.

If Trump wins the required delegates according to the rules of each individual state I will support him. If he does not win the required delegates I will support which ever candidate wins at the convention.

I would also hope that at the rules committee they would enforce proportional delegates by percentages of votes in each state in future primaries. This would then put the election of candidates in the hands of the voters.

The reason for this present insanity is the elite of both parties do not want the people to decide whom the candidate is. That is the reason for “super delegates” as they are the tool of the elites that do not bend to the will of the voters.

The Democrat party and the Republican party are equally corrupt. They are both in horror of Trump and Bernie Sanders.

I am for Cruz

Your tagline, in toto, serves as a good bona fides to me — nice post.

Trump knew the rules when he started this race

No one other than GOP insiders knew all the rules at the beginning of this race. They vary from state to state and are constantly being changed. It is an insane system.

Despite Cruz being an attorney, I doubt that he personally had a great deal more knowledge than Trump about the arcane rules that vary in every state. The advantage that he had is that by Arizona, he was already being used by the insiders to deny Trump the nomination. Colluding insiders knew how to manipulate the rules to try and fix this election. They were using Cruz; he is corrupt to the core, but I am not sure that he or his campaign can really be held responsible for this travesty. In this case he was just the beneficiary of the absolute corruption of those who disenfranchised the voters of Arizona. The leadership of the Arizona GOP will never be trusted again.

Gov Jan Brewer is on Twitter claiming that her name was left off the ballot, and she is pissed. I don't think she'll let this go quietly.

And I've got to say this. I am sick and tired of Ted Cruz and his supporters squawking about procedures, trying to convince themselves that enough backroom deals and shady maneuvers will justify denying the will of the voter.

Senator Cruz could have left this race an honorable man, and could have had a pretty good future. Now, Gallup is saying he is the completely underwater with GOP voters.

The man is a buffoon. A laughingstock. A miserable SOB. And people won't forget.

“Trump knew the rules when he started this race. He does not have the luxury to decide which rules are fair or unfair to him, that is the province of the local state Republican parties which are also as corrupt as he.”

So, the guy representing the American people who are getting ripped off by unethical rules is corrupt? Sure, and we are not allowed an opinion of fairness? Sure, so in your ugly world what is just? What is moral? Bet you are part of the Cruz Cult...not a twit for reasoning, just blathering nonsense that makes you think your ruler would smile over. Get a life, get real...and get the hell out of the way of the Trump Train, we are going to run right over your sorry ass.
