Thank you for reporting honestly about how Trump is not organizing any effort on these delegate selection matters. That Cruz has matters organized and Trump does not is not evidence of cheating or stealing.

Agreed. Based on the FRaddict’s report, Trump’s organization did not have enough people present to FILL his entitled delegates.

There was no overt stealing at the convention. The rules were being followed, but the attitude was clear. When some one gets up and says they will not ever support Trump, we have a problem in the party. Although they did add two more voting district delegates at the last minute. Not sure why, but I figured it wouldn’t matter that much with 118 delegates already present.

I also got a call before the convention by a Cruz supporter and he asked who I supported. That was an easy one. I told him I supported the nominee. He didn’t want to take that as an answer. I told him I supported who the people elected. He said but the delegates haven’t voted and that’s what counts.

I have been naive about the voting process and have a very bad taste in my mouth.

It was said at the convention that you couldn’t campaign for help in expenses, but I wonder if there is some vote buying going on within the party. I was naive how this part of the process worked.

I’m still learning how the system works, and I never realized how powerful the backroom deals are. We think our vote counts, but is it just for show?

exactly. and whining about theft when he hasn’t done his due diligence in getting his people prepped and organized is an attempt to miscast what is going on here.
