The Colorado GOP made rules, to depress the vote, so they could control, who they would give the delegates of their choosing, to the candidate of their choice. NOTICE I did not mention any candidates name. Try and step outside of the tiny Cruz box, and look at the big picture. You are ignoring the Colorado tweet after the shame election of 'NEVERTRUMP' was sent out. The game was rigged and fixed... it just so happened that Cruz was the NEVERTRUMP GOP's choice.
Trump actually outfoxed the Colorado GOP by NOT showing up and exposed them for their liberal/progressive election technique. Cruz so called victory by seducing delegates to NEVERTRUMP looks 'dirty' outside of Cruz box.. The mere fact you can cheer this process says you are part of the problem.
At least by 'making an appearance' in Colorado and Nebraska and 'making his case' to 'earn' the delegates would have brought something,..but no he waited in NY until he had been thoroughly thrashed in Colorado and whining that the delegates chosen 'by participants' in the March caucuses didn't kiss his ring because He Is The Donald!.....
Trump's whine as you call it has exposed the GOP as making and playing by the same rule making as the liberal/progressives... GOP is 'dirty' is the real perception. And the GOP once again turns off the majority of voters giving the election to the liberal/progressives...
Furthermore if that's cheating then Trump needs to give back those he was awarded above the actual raw vote.
Again you miss the point... Colorado GOP dissed the citizens of Colorado... who knows who would have won if there had been a 'real' primary election.
The rules were put in place to put rinos like Bush or Kasich in.... You really think they were trying to guarantee delegate for a true conservative like Cruz? ....If that’s the case, Trump really was fatally lazy by not making an appearance..... Unless you are including him in the RINO category.... Given his past, that is understandable.
