I should quit rising to this bait.

” And he’s just following the rules regarding the delegates, not ‘cheating’.”

That statement is not truthful if you look at the situation.

First it is the rules are the problem. An honest ethical man would not use unethical means and the addition of unbound delegates to skew an election is unethical. It will also not be possible in the general election. An honest man does not use dishonest means.

Also, there is more going on than “following the rules” when governors and ex-governors of states (Maine and Arizona)start to complain about the conduct of Cruz people in a caucus you can’t blame it on rules. Cruz people have published false delegate list (Pennsylvania), they have lied about other candidates dropping out of a race, and they did do that(Iowa). They have openly and deliberately suppressed support for Trump (Colorado, Wyoming). They have used unbound delegates to gain parity in delegates where they lost a state primary (Louisiana, New Hampshire.

Supporters of Senator Cruz also have consistently misrepresented Mr Trumps positions, cherry picked statement (from as far back as 46 years ago) often taken out of context to claim Trump is something he is not. When this is pointed out the Cruz supporters simply resort to ad homminem attacks. I’ve been called - all by Cruz supporters and despite going out of my way to be polite to them: A cultist, a low-info a Trumpanzee, Trumpist, Trum-ape a liberal, a fool and many other names.

I cannot remember how many time I have had to reply to same 10 to 15 objections to Trump that are near complete misrepresentations of his positions. I started a post to answer the questions but stopped when it ended up over 12 typed pages long and I was not finished with it. That was too long to post here and I’d come to the conclusion that Cruz supporters wouldn’t read it anyway.

You complain about the way Trump supporters act but we’ve never started a #NeverCruz and had it published nation wide.

From where I sit as an ex-Cruz supporter the Cruz supporters started the vitriol. It was the Cruz supporters viciousness that caused me to change m position. It galls me that you have the temerity to then try and sit on some faux moral high horse about how rude the Trump supporters are.
