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....

Back when Cruz was pretending to be an “outsider” even you people complained about the splitter strategy

Oh yes, 2ndDivisionVet and all the other Cruzers have all been exposed as the anti-American globalist GOPe stooges we always knew them to be.

Funny how after us bitching about the same thing after two terms of Obama, some of us (you - not me) finally see the light and the wisdom of all the crooks running the system is so obvious now - sometimes it’s good to step on the People’s choices/rights.....

Many Sanders people will not vote Hillary or some may go Trump if he goes Third Party.

So what!?

It was news to me yesterday; a word to the wise, so to speak.

"I’ve already stated that Cruz has lost it fair and square and should step aside for the sake of the country. If his continued efforts at thievery split and destroy the party, we’ll be saddled by Hillary or burned by Bernie."

He’s absolutely correct. The corrupt primary system produced a McCain and a Romney as Republican candidates, the absolute worst and most liberal choices possible.

I’m sure, in his own mind, Saddam Hussein could justify winning every election because he was following his own rules.

This is exactly why I became a delegate.

Many Trump supporters just dont get it. Delegates are elected. And since they are elected and Trump supports say they have the majority they should be able to get the most delegates.

But to hear them they would rather burn every thing down. The system is ripe for them to go in and take over.

You understand the difference in the two forms of government, right? Start your own party: You will not be killed for doing that here.

You won't be killed - yet. You will just be hounded by the IRS & other various regime agencies.

Only if you try to get that tax write-offs. If your platform is against the complex tax system, it might be bad optics to capitulate to the behavior modification the tax incentive system establishes.

If Sanders Socialists like Trump, what does that tell you about Trump?

Trump is a true Capitalist.

But both Sanders and Trump folks get to witness insider conspiracies to defraud the VOTERS, that they have in common?

Don’t worry about socialist because Ted and the GOPe are bringing you the full Alinsky.

Please, a typeo proves a conspiracy now??

Any moron can see that was just a dulplicated number. A typographical error. Here’s what the bitter Trump supporter needs to do at this point:

Get a count of how many times that second “278” number was counted (those are obviously physical peices of paper that can be counted by hand) and if that number is greater than the real 278, then indeed Trump should have won that one.

Here’s a thought though: maybe that second 278 (really 279) got no votes or very little. Then if that’s the case this is a big tatdo about nothing.

As for the man in the video here’s a newsflash: I don’t know him nor do 99% of the rest of the country. Here’s a possibility (until or unless we know all the facts in his case) maybe he was booted from the process for some other valid reason like, I dunno, breaking some convention rule in his support of Trump. That is a possibility whether you or anyone wants to admit it. People do break rules and do all types of nasty things all the time (and then post videos on YouTube claiming how they were victimized).

Bottom line come back with more proof than a typeo and a man with a sob story. FR is better than this (used to be at least)

That’s what it seems like. Destroy the Republican Party and get Hillary into the White House.

How would I know you’re illiterate? because I read your illiterate posts. You don’t know what “illiterate” means, do you?
