Cruz brags about his Ground game

It's nothing compared to Trump voters with pitch forks and these delegates who have to come home to face them.

Trump can challenge any of the delegates. I am sure Trump will. Trump was caught flat footed about the delegate selection and is too late in a lot of cases.

This will make Trump people mad, but when Trump personally attacked Rubio, Bush, Cruz etc., makes been less likely to want to help Trump.

“Doesn’t make sense to me, to name someone as a delegate for a candidate, when they don’t support that candidate. Good ole botulism rearing its head again.”

Pennsylvania is a cesspool. Every delegate is unbound with zero obligation to the candidate the people of PA voted for. Very scary.

The GOPe has already set a set of potential delegates for certain states like Maryland where some of the delegates are simply GOPe plants list for Trump, Cruz, etc. They are bound on the first ballot but free to vote as the GOPe wishes after that. They have no real allegiance to the candidate they are on the ballot to support.

I know when we were voting here in TN, I recognized only a few of the names for the delegates (for any candidate) and I sure couldn’t tell you if they were really for that candidate or not.

And that is nothing compared to the difficulty any other nominee and the Republican candidates for other offices will face trying to win back the support of the Trump voters, and possible even Cruz voters that they stiffed at the convention.

I'm not sure how the GOPe folks plan to win in November if they alienate a big portion of the people that normally are their key supporters. Do the reps, senators, and other Republican candidates think they can get elected without the help of the Republican base?

By no means should anyone undertake harassing or illegal action, but I would argue it’s time to do this the ‘anonymous’ way: dox these people, and let them politely know that we know who they are and that we expect them to back the candidate under whose name they travel to Cleveland.

Waiting until after Cleveland and they return home, having betrayed our trust, is too late. It’s easy to think one’s being clever behind closed doors if one does so without consequence (like a lot of Internet chatter); it’s a different story when you know the people know who you are and are watching what you do.

Sorry, my response above was about total delegates Trump has as reported by Five Thirty Eight.

The GOPe is inserting anti-Trump party hacks as Trump delegates who will vote for a GOPe stooge if Trump fails to get to 1237. The GOP is run by elitist crooks that believe voters need to STFU and get back on their gobalist GOPe plantation.
