“That’s what happens when Republicans vote in Republican contests. Notice Trump wins the states that democrats can vote in.”
Not true. Four years ago a large number of Democrats and Independents signed up to become new Republicans and vote in our Republican caucus. These NEW Republicans all voted for George Romney and Ron Paul. Nonetheless, a plurality of us old Republicans voted for Newt Gingrich in opposition to George Romney. Based on the precinct vote in the caucus Newt Gingrich was entitled to almost half of the delegates to the county convention, but that did not happen. The Romney and Paul supporters jumped up and volunteered to be delegates before anyone else knew what was going on. I ended up being the only Newt Gingrich delegate from our precinct, despite the precinct vote authorizing him to receive almost half of the delegates. This disparity between what the voters chose versus the delegates selected seems to happen all too often in caucus elections, leaving the voters disenfranchised yet again in yet another way.
I was rooting for Newt myself. Romney did a good job of destroying Newt, something he was not willing to do in the general against Obama. Newt would have made a tremendous president.
