This is called “ground game,” folks. It’s well within the established rule sets every candidate knows or should know. Trump’s inability to understand those rules is his failure alone.
I have heard the term “ground game” used for months...
Silly me, I always thought it was about convincing people to vote for your candidate...earning their votes...going door to door, doing literature drops, putting up signs, etc.
Now I understand, “ground game” is about subverting the will of the voters....in essence taking votes others received—not trying to earn the votes of voters.
Well, the dems are good at “ground game” too—so if by some long shot teddy gets the nod, I will look forward to your full support of their actions.

You seem to imply Cruz is somehow violating rules by engaging these delegates. He’s not.
