Exactly! Why did they give the appearance of voting in FLorida where Trump ends up with 100% of the delegates but less than 50% of the actual vote.

How is that fair?

In a normal year, the voters express their preference in the primaries and caucuses and this gives a nominee the required majority of delegates. So the voters determine.

In this unusual election, with an outsider leading a “we hate our party” faction, the party is not coalescing around the leader.

When no one gets a majority of delegates through the primary process, then the delegates become important.

The principle that the nominee should have a majority of support of the party is sound. Trump does not have that majority.
