The Latest: Trump gripes about "corrupt" nomination system
The Odessa American ^ | April 10, 2016 | The Associated Press

Donald Trump is blasting a "corrupt" election system for complicating his path to the Republican nomination.

Trump tells a crowd of thousands of enthusiastic supporters gathered in a frigid airport hangar in Rochester, New York on Sunday afternoon that "it's not right" that the person who wins the most votes may not be the nominee.

He says he's doing fine, but if he's denied the nomination, "you're going to have a big problem, folks."

While Trump has won more states than any of his Republican rivals, it's possible that he won't secure the 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination before the summer convention....

I just don’t get it: the Anti-Patriotic, Anti-Republic, Anti-Sovereignty crowd has taken over FREE REPUBLIC. GLOBALISTS on a forum for the by-definition SOVEREIGN Republic. It’s a contradiction. Worse than that they’ve got a foreign Manchurian Candidate running and they are lying and cheating at every level, planning to make the USA into the North American Union? THIS is the Republic our forefathers founded? One with no borders, limitless immigration, no jobs and third-world living conditions (example NAFTA, TPA, TPP)?

Oh sure because you wouldn’t actually want your party voters to actually select the nominee because then you might end up with an outsider

Skiing would be more popular and lift tickets would cost less.

So, Yes!

Hell, he can’t even figure out that the US is not a democracy (by majority rule)....it’s a republic. And he’s supposed to be (according to the Trump supporters) intelligent bordering on genius? He reasons like a third-grader and sounds like a dumb@ss to me.

“”We’ve got a corrupt system, its not right. We’re supposed to be a democracy.”

Has it even cross your mind that if Cruz is allowed to cancel the Primaries, because the Establishment knows they are going to lose, that could not do that to Cruz by Hillary?

The purple thumb was for voting in the general.

Party primaries are not the general election.

Primaries themselves are relatively new in this country.

How a party picks its nominee is up to the party.

Burn baby burn. The GOP & RNC just lost the House, Senate and Presidency.

I look forward to the whole party getting primaries until there is no more GOPe.

Too bad the country will be in the hands of Democrats for the next 30 years though.

The country has been in the hands of democrats since Pelosi took over as speaker. And after her party lost the majority she and Reid were still in charge. So letting them have it by getting rid of the gop is a win.

The GOPe is giving it to them, not the people.

Donors to the GOP will be boycotted into no future support.
Politicians will all be primaries.

How corrupt could Texas be if they ever elect Goldman Sachs Cruz to anything from Texas again?

I admit I voted for him for senate because it was so easy to just vote straight republican. I’ll never vote for him again.

Corrupt Cruz deserves no vote. As Colorado proves he wants no vote anyway, just your delegates.

What, this quote?

Don't care if he was born in a manger on July 4th! A "Natural Born" citizen requires two US parents!

That was 2ndDivisionVet's tagline a few years ago, back when he apparently was focused on Barack 0bama's Presidential eligibility or lack thereof.

Is that you in the cartoon 2ndD?
