Trump to Nevada delegates: I'll pay your travel, hotel costs
The Washington Examiner ^ | April 17, 2016 | David M. Drucker

Donald Trump's campaign is going all out to win delegates in Nevada, offering to cover transportation and lodging costs for Nevada supporters who travel to Reno in mid May to participate in delegate elections.

Trump's Nevada activities contradict his claim that he has deliberately declined to invest resources in the election of delegates to the Republican nominating convention in Cleveland because the process is "corrupt."

"With overwhelming success throughout each county, we're in a strong position going into the state convention being held in Reno on May 14th and 15th," Charles Munoz, Trump's Nevada state director, wrote in an email to the billionaire's grassroots supporters. "We'll also be announcing training's, lodging and transportation opportunities for delegates within the next couple days."

Ted Cruz, Trump's closest competitor, has run circles around the reality television star in delegate elections across the country. The Texas senator has installed loyalists on convention delegations that are prepared to vote flip to him once unbound from their obligation to support the candidate that won the caucus or primary in their state....

Hookers are only for Congressmen and lobbyists.

I hope Trump doesn’t end up reversing this decision, and/or denying he ever offered to pay for their travel. This happened with talk about paying the bail for a Trump supporting protester; that 80 y/o Cowboy who sucker punched a BLM’er in a stadium. I don’t know how that ended up. Hopefully, the old guy has not been locked up this whole time.

Trump had been buying politicians all his life. A few delegates are drop in the bucket.

You could criticize a corrupt system while playing it. It be like a business paying off a mafia while complaining about it

It is illegal for Trump (or Cruz) to pay the expenses. But - individual donors are allowed to. I imagine many folks will set up “go-fund-me” accounts to let their facebook friends and neighbors help them out, and get them a bit involved in the process.

"We'll also be announcing training's, lodging and transportation opportunities for delegates within the next couple days."

Where does this say that the campaign will be paying for lodging, transportation, etc???

Similar emails have gone out, in TX. NO where does the email say anything about any of the costs being paid for, by the campaign. Only estimated costs, dates, etc for those who may be delegates.

Right back at you.

Cruz has now sold his entire campaign to the GOPe.

Cruz is now the problem.

Any Trump supporter who isnt signed up to be a delegate in any state, that has not chosen them yet. Needs to sign up I’m sure you can get support to help you go to the national convention.

Perfectly legit.

At least, he isn't ignoring them --as he has his delegates in other states.

Bring it.

It is either yet another in the countless number of pro-Cruz nonsense posts.

Or else one of the occasional Trump threads you occasionally post, just for “balance”.

I can hardly conceal my enthusiasm. Gosh, which will it be?

It's in the very first paragraph in the article
Donald Trump's campaign is going all out to win delegates in Nevada, offering to cover transportation and lodging costs for Nevada supporters who travel to Reno in mid May to participate in delegate elections.

It's reported that way...
