Post ten confirms the game plan. Lots of national attention.
The PARTY looses if the support the no vote delegates particularly with what was heard yesterday about how actual delegates were eliminated.
That photo reminds me...I need to add cottage cheese to my grocery list.

Don’t throw good money after bad.
Your first loss is your best loss
Well, has anything much except Trump's fight with the GOPe been in the news ?
He put the GOPe and Cruz on the defensive on purpose.
Trump is not stupid,of course he knows. He is just a liar using this part of the election to play His followers like a worn fiddle.
“We all know Trump uses unusually harsh rhetoric in attacking people. He calls them liars. He calls them cheats. This is not the kind of talk we normally hear in American political campaigns, unless someone doesn’t know the microphone is live.
Trump does it routinely – every day.”
Yes, and voters of the other candidates that Trump will need if he won the nomination will hate his filthy rotten guts.
Trump is too stupid to figure that part out though.
Off topic: 2 Maryland firefighters shot and killed by thugs per Fox News.
“He got in the race to promote a contract for a new reality TV show”
That wins dumbest post of the day.
Another scruzerbot that Is just so fixated on trumps butt that they don’t realize they sound like degenerates. I guess that is to be expected from someone that thinks that there are no other states but Texas. Thank God there are non scruzers from Texas that recognize we have 50 states,not one,they are the salt of the earth people.
Actually, I suggested this lady week.
Rush laid out this same BS theory yesterday. He also left out the electioneering part.
Trump is playing it very well, I think. Manafort is tending to the detail work, and Trump is prepping the public perception battlefield. If a Cruz second-ballot delegate is disqualified from the convention, the attempts to call the disqualification "dirty tricks" will be countered with a claim that Trump and Manafort are just using the rules.
That said, I don't think Trump is engaged in this sort of strategy from the start. This is not part of his delegate accumulation plan - compared with Cruz and the GOPe who have executed their side of the plan (delegate selection) many times in the past. I think that Trump is a "political ground game" neophyte, and likely missed opportunities to battle that he would rather have taken.
That's what Manafort said about the Colorado delegate seating action. That the Trump campaign saw how it was being managed, and knew that resistance at that place and time was futile.
Conventional wisdom is that they walked away, and that's that. But the rules go beyond delegate selection, and whatver "walking" took place is retreat, not surrender.
Sounds About right to me. Recognizing that the GOP leadership is sick of losing,but still keeps messing up. They are a different breed of pups,and so totally out of touch with their base that they are destroying any future they nay have in even communicating with them. You know that democrat leadership are a scummy,control freakish bunch of socialists,we expect better from the party of Lincoln and Reagan.

Well he already had a TV show and let’s face it most of us were not aware of all the stupid archaic rules the GOPe has used to manipulate us. Now anyone who looks can see it and PC has been clearly exposed as manipulation and been sent to the dust bin.
Trump would never invest his time and money if he didn’t plan to win. But win or lose, he has certainly opened many eyes to the fact that the RNC is as corrupt as the DNC only better at hiding it. Well Trump has laid it out for all to see.
Americans are supposed to be free not manipulated by paid officials who lie to them every 2 to 4 years!
A good explanation of the current state of politics. Our leaders are so completely myopic thsy can’t tell they’ve been flanked
Do you hear those sirens? They are coming to take you away to the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time,etc.
I thought it was creative, whether it is sarcasm or the product of wishful thinking.
You have to admit, it takes guts to air some thoughts and beliefs on this forum!
