Nobody is “stealing” anything from the Donald. If he wants to win tell him to get off twitter and quit behaving like a rock star. It takes more to winning than he and his supporters behaving like 16 year old girls.

It’s not Sen. Cruz’s fault that the Donald behaves like he’s running for High School Class President. If you can’t be bothered to learn the rules, that’s his problem. It’s each candidates job to do the best they can to win within the rules. The rules don’t change just because the Donald can’t bother to learn them.

You snooze, you lose.

It's the party rules. Trump is like the team that practices all summer to play football using the wishbone. Then when the other team drops back and throws a pass.... they say "you can do that?"

Trumpy continues to prove that he is not ready for the job.

RE:”You want Ted to steal the nomination from Trump?”

I want Ted to beat Trump and he is working to get those delegates

RE:”You DO know Trump will run third party then right? ensuring Hillary the nomination?”

If Trump does that then it just proves what I been saying all along, that Trump is on his friend Hillary's side.
That would also explain all the Hillary Democrat 'crossover' voters voting for Trump in the GOP races, Dems operation chaos .

That he only ran to get her elected.

Don't give into Trump's terrorist tactics Ted, keep fighting!

That's the way runoff elections work throughout this country. People vote, and if no one gets 50% they vote again for the top two. And in the next election people vote for whomever they want.

It is the party rules. It's not Cruz's fault that Trump has little or no ground game. But hey... he's financing his own campaign. So he get's what he pays for. He's just too darn cheap to run a successful campaign all the way to the end.

No, they are not taking away our vote.
As Stalin said, Who cares who votes, counting the vote is what counts.

I can’t even write on here what I think of those who actually said they were against the establishment and now support the establishment and their corruption.
I know for a fact if this happened to their guy there would be outrage, but they have become arty, establishment hypocritical hacks and I will leave it at that what I think before I am, banned.

He is politically dead and he just helped kill off this country.

I’m looking forward to burning down the GOP for a new party after this debacle.

I will now donate heavily to all opposition to Cruz. This guy is worse than Obama.

My voice will not be silenced.

I will vote for Trump in November.

One way or the other.

I am sick and tired of the games.

My state doesn’t have party affiliation for voters. If they did I’d be ready to change it as soon as something happens at the convention to show that they are going against the will of the voters.

I can change my voter registration online (name, address, etc). If your state has party affiliation or state party has it’s one registration you may want to find out how to change it before the convention. Could be as simple as logging in or you may need to go in person. Mailing the form is also possible but won’t be received for a few days. It would be nice to see 1000s (or more) people dump the republican party after day one of the convention (assuming Trump’s delegates go against him).

If you’re one of those people who keeps replying “those are the rules”, don’t bother replying. You are part of the problem that allows the party to ignore what the voters want if you accept these rules. The 2015 Congress followed the rules too.

I agree with you. There is nothing sleazy or wrong about it. It is the rules and the way the republican party works. If Trumpy wasn’t prepared to win the republican party knowing the rules of the election he should have run 3rd party a long time ago. Trumpy wants the rules changed for him because he’s to cheap to buy a ground game.

I’m a Trump supporter but this isn’t something new. Trump cannot think that all he has to do is win and go forward. He must be talking to the delegates daily. This is how the primaries work and have always worked. This isn’t new just because it is Trump and Cruz

BULL$HIT!

We the people run the country and not the other way around.

What’s the point of the Primary’, debates, Elections and saying “your vote counts” if our votes only count if that’s who the Establishment wants in office?

I can believe you are so shallow not to realize how dangerous this is? If this is allowed, then it will set a new precedent.

We the people are no longer represented if this is allowed.

They will SELECT WHO IS THE POTUS vs. the letting We the People Decide.

I know you are happy and thinking this is great because they are putting in my guy even though he lost in the Primaries. You are not thinking about the future at all.

Wait til they put in a Dictator. Then will see if you are so happy.

Good men and women died so you would have that right, and you are smiling and celebrating like a jack@ss!
