“Michigan Cruz leader Saul Anuzis said they were “double-crossed” by Kasich’s campaign. The Kasich delegates were supposed to vote with Cruz delegates,”

Translation: We had them bought and paid for and they still didn’t vote for Cruz

Michigan Cruz leader Saul Anuzis said they were “double-crossed” by Kasich’s campaign. The Kasich delegates were supposed to vote with Cruz delegates, he said, but switched sides and voted with Trump behind closed doors Saturday afternoon.


Bwahahaha...to Saul Anuzis. Better call a whaaaaambulance, for Saul.

In before the Ground game suddenly means cheaTED, if only used against cRuz, crowd.

I think the Trump-Kasich alliance is becoming active.

Fox, RNC/GOPe etc...settling for Trump.

Seems that way.

It’s really sad that these games are being played at all. If Cruz has been an honorable candidate he wouldn’t have tried to steal the delegates and then we wouldn’t have this type of garbage going on.
