This process looks custom made for obscurity and confusion which are the best friends of HACKS and THUGS everywhere.

What can Trump do here?

Yes years ago when PA set these rules Ted was the one that did it all. It’s his master plan he set forth years ago to defeat Trump.

Trump should get off his ass, spend some cash, hire some real people who know how to win in politics, and get it done. Stop whining about it and start winning like he promised.

Trump is clearly winning the public perception war with ammunition the other candidates give him. Stupid of them, normal for Trump.

Trump is a deductive thinker - he begins with the goal and works back from there - no wasted motion - only what contributes to the result.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016



Guys like Cruz are inductive thinkers. They are so obsessed with the ideological front end, the actual result is an afterthought.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016

Send his own thugs!! We’re conservatives. We don’t whine about something being unfair. We KNOW life’s unfair.

We adjust and overcome.

Let Trump’s new people kick some @#$@#$!!!!

Let’s not forget how Little Donald stole 100% of the delegates from Florida while failing to win even a simple majority of the vote! How scandalous!

Oh wait... those were the rules in that state? But someone rules in other states are unfair because Little Donald says they are? I guess it’s only scandalous when Little Donald wants it to be.

He’s not a winner. Little Donald is a whiner. And a weak, weak man.

Oh no...that only gives someone more than half a year to understand the rules and work the system.

Come on...if you think the GOP is just going to sit back and let an outsider walk away with the party you’re crazier than Trump. Trump needs to bone up do his work and win this think on the rules that are in place. He also better start working on the rules committee. Hint: he and Cruz will need to influence the rules if they want to win.

If Trump doesn’t do that both Cruz and Trump will lose. So we all need Trump go get his act together and start working for the people he claims to support.

hmmmm...I thought this was PA we’re talking about and this election.

But like I said Trump needs to get off his ass, quit whining and start working. I guess he’s used to having things handed to him and not real hard work. Well it’s going to take real work to get this done.

On paper there are a little over 50 delegates here in PA that are technically unbound. However, on our ballot we get to vote for the statewide candidate we want, and then a delegate for our district.

Most delegates have pledged to vote in the convention the way their district has voted. So if Trump wins my district, chances are the delegate will also vote for him on the first ballot.

Also, there are certain delegates who are openly Trump supporters, so we can vote for them on the ballot.

My point being, hopefully PA will give a large representation to Trump, since he is at 48% in the state polls at this point, so he will technically get more support than just the 17 bound delegates given to the state winner.

In fact, Trumps chances of getting to 1237 may come down to how our PA unbound delegates end up voting...

Colorado was a GOPe scam and any rational person realizes that. Cruz is thinking that he can use the GOPe to get the nomination. He and too many of his supporters fail to realize that the GOPe is using Cruz to stop Trump, and then insert their own pet RINO into the nomination, and once again blocking any effort at reforming their corrupt ways.
