Old news...Trump picked up an additional 12 delegates with the certification of Missouri tonight. Essentially nullifies the LA change. Next....
It does not show organizational weakness. Votes are supposed to count. It shows the system is a sham.
it sounds like the GOP-E is just like the DNC — corrupted as all Hell!
(I say this not as a Trumpster, but the person who the most people vote for ..certainly should receive the most delegates)
this is exactly the kind of corrupt BS that Trump (and Bernie) ... say they oppose and want to clean up.
It’s got nothing to do with sleazy gopE tactics. Thanks cruz for keeping the gopE alive, and you too of course 2ndDiv.
The poor baby...
Why is he assuming that he has list the vote of all 5 party leaders?
Why is he assuming that ge has lost the vote of all 5 Rubio delegates?
...
(1) You should realize that he’s not going to sue.
(2) The threat brings attention to the corruption of the GOPe and their trying to steal an election.
Most logical people would think that Trump would get the most delegates if he received the most votes. Why should the people of Louisiana even turn out to vote if it doesn’t matter?
Trump saying he may sue puts the spotlight on the GOPe’s corruption. This doesn’t hurt Trump. It helps him. So actually it’s pretty smart to bring attention to it.
Well...after 5 months of organization chaos... He’s still got the GOPe wetting
Trump is looking for cases of voter fraud in Texas and Ohio.
If he had organizational weakenesses, there is no way he would have been able, as a newcomer, to garner over 7 million votes and 751 delegates so far, this primary season. Not to to mention, with very little money spent per voter. This just proves how the establishment has rigged this system to further protect and empower the lawyers and lifelong government workers to maintain their monopoly and tyrannical ways.
He appears to be fixing that as you post.
Trump has hired delegate manager Paul Manafort to lead his GOP convention efforts and shore up enough delegates to ensure he wins the nomination on the first ballot at the GOP presidential convention in Cleveland in July. Manafort is well known in GOP circles because in 1976, on behalf of then President Gerald Ford—who ascended to the presidency without being elected because of Richard Nixon’s Watergate-driven resignation—Manafort successfully fended off future president Ronald Reagan in a delegate battle that may end up looking a lot like 2016. Thanks to Manafort’s work for Ford that year, the incumbent president barely held on to the party’s nomination, beating back Reagan’s challenge.
But four years later, when Reagan faced a similar but less complicated delegate battle in 1980, he hired Manafort to lead his successful delegate fight at the convention that year.
Reagan, of course, would go on to win the nomination and then win the White House back for Republicans from the failing Carter.
NPR commenting on ‘organizational weakness’? Excuse me?
A group of taxpayer-funded bloodless dullards who couldn’t run a real business in a competitive marketplace without government subsidization feels itself qualified to criticize ‘organizational weakness’ in a person that is in a whole different league above where they pick their noses?
Shame is nonexistent in liberal minds. They have no odea how foolish and mediocre they look and act. But they think themselves fit to criticize business superstars.
Trying to remember where it was, today, that I heard that Trump had dropped that idea to sue.
Each State party sets its own rules for selecting delegates. It’s been that way since the founding of the party.
There is no story. Under what theory could Trump even begin to litigate?
Private organizations, like clubs and churches are generally given considerable leeway by courts.
If a plaintff, however, can show standing and that the organization has violated its own rules or by-laws, he’s got a case and depending on the facts, possibly a good one.
Trump doesn’t like to lose or to settle frivolous claims against himself or those close to him. I’m going to guess he thinks he can win.
And Cruz’s relegation to role of spoiler doesn’t indicate any weakness whatever - his team is really good at sifting through the dumpster to see what they can salvage/steal....If Trump’s so weak, why’s Cruz chasing pipe dreams as he focuses on stopping our last best chance to gain the WH?
Another nothing burger.
