Then, through an astoundingly sharp bit of electioneering, ALL of the delegates go to Cruz, followed by a triumphant tweet "#NeverTrump".
Yet all of that was still Trump's fault, since he didn't decode the byzantine Colorado GOP loaded-against-him process and/or file a lawsuit to get the full electorate back into the actual voting process.
Swell. And you really think that I would ever vote for the scumbags that pull crap like this?
It demonstrated, for all those with eyes to see, that Cruz is a pawn of the Establishment.
Here on FR, I've seen people expressing triumph that the party "insiders" won over the voters, and contempt towards any Republican who didn't "[put] in the hundreds of hours and money necessary to get to the national delegate level. Lazy and uninformed is a sad way to go through life."
I have news for such. The GOP is NOT the exclusive property of the Party leadership. The party staff are supposed to serve the Republican voters, but they have lost sight of that. It is well past time for a purge of party autocrats who have contempt for their own voters.
Good post. These media whores will do anything. Even if Trump, an outsider, had read every states’ rules and hired people in every damn state it would not change a damn thing. Many of the RNC types in each state started out as Young Republicans in college like Cruz apparently did. I had a college girl whose mother brought her by my office in 1980 to buy health insurance for her ask me to go to a meeting. I saw her and her girl friends with 50-60 year old attorneys and businessmen and they did more then talk politics. The one who invited me offered a BJ as “she was saving herself for marriage.” Yes, Trump would do well with this bunch. BS. FACT: There is an attorney in almost every decent sized city who really runs the RNC in that city. Occasionally it will be a business type, but; most are lawyers. Neither Trump nor his pals can break through the relationships these folks have.
