Trump team alleges delegate stealing plot in Tennessee

Donald Trump's operation in Tennessee says the Republican Party is trying to "steal" the state's primary election after Trump won it.

On Super Tuesday, March 1, Trump won Tennessee, with 38.9 percent of voters to the 24.7 percent for Sen. Ted Cruz. The results won Trump 33 delegates. Cruz received 16 delegates.

But Trump's team argues that the Tennessee Republican Party is interfering with the selection process of the delegates, the Tennessean reports.

"They're picking anti-Trump people," Darren Morris, Trump's Tennessee state director said.

“What they are doing is the GOPe is positioning its hand-picked delegates and “sleepers” to the rules committee rather than delegates favorable to the candidate.”

The delegates can vote on a resolution to abolish the current rules committee and create a new rules committee. That throws the entire GOP convention into screaming chaos.

Trump does not have a divine right of Kings. He must earn 1237. They need to quit whining and do what the Cruz people are doing, working within the rules!

Legal theft, eh??? That's something to be proud of...

[Iscool]

Trump will win if millions of us have our votes counted HONESTLY....which is the problem now ....the dirty rotten lying cheating greedy powermonger uniparty.

If they're going to cheat us on the delegates, they will cheat up on the actual votes as well...

[Iscool]

But Trump was never going to win the general election. He is the only candidate that makes Hillary look honest and trustworthy by comparison.

Oh please...Cruz lied his way thru his Senate campaign and now thru the Presidential campaign...And as such he can not possibly win anything...

I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to several of you. I think that I was at least partially wrong when it came to what happened today in Nashville. It seems like it is the state GOP attempting to place people who are establishment people who are hostile to both Trump and Cruz. This could be an effort to bring in a “dark horse” i.e. someone who hasn't even been in the contest. There is a difference between the different campaigns trying to line up votes for the 2nd ballot and beyond and the organizations that are supposed to neutral doing it.

I smell Diane Blacks stink on it

Mae Beavers is no dummy though trust me

Cruz people only see the good Lord standing behind their mortal savior Ted Cruz

Really nothing else matters to them....not the law or rules or votes or empirical evidence how flawed he is

It’s irrelevant

He’s such a great Christian you know

And best conservative ever pretty much.....

Nothing else matters

They sell their kids at the baracoon for Ted to win by any means possible

I’ve never seen any thing like it

Machiavelli bangs Church Lady and 40 weeks later out pops Ted Cruz

The most sanctimonious yet conservative GOP candidate in history

Not immaculate mind you but it was Gods work....just ask them if you don’t believe me

“FYI I’m a CONSTITUTIONALIST, one of those Bitter Bible and Gun Clingers. NOT A dem or gope. Not a Alinskyite commie.”

I guess some weakling pinged the moderator to my post, because it doesn’t seem to be there.

I’ll tell you one thing: I don’t refer to “those Bitter Bible and Gun Clingers” as though that were a bad thing to be. Neither does any conservative of my acquaintance.

“There is a difference between the different campaigns trying to line up votes for the 2nd ballot and beyond and the organizations that are supposed to neutral doing it.”

Scary, isn’t it? Maddening, frustrating, revolting, ... words cannot express it well enough. A revolution... can.

When you attack people you don't even know, like that calling a Patriot a Commie you deserve to be SUSPENDED not just have your post deleted.

Don't bother to reply it is not welcomed!

[dsc]

Since the note is deleted, I can’t refer to it to see what I did or did not say about you.

Convenient for you.

[GailA]

You should go back and reread your second post as you copied the COMMIE QUOTE TO IT.

Mods just deleted your OFFENSIVE post, you should have been suspend over. But then they tend to let people like you off with just a deleted post and SUSPEND those who support Cruz.

I REQUESTED POLITELY THAT YOU NOT CONTACT ME. YOU CHOSE TO IGNORE THAT! I REPEAT THAT REQUEST AGAIN.

I have never been an Alinski COMMIE.

GOD, COUNTRY, CONSTITUTION, and GUNS rule! America is the LAST BASTION OF FREEDOM!

Mommy, they’re trying to take my delegates!! waaaaaaa!”

You spend the time and tens of millions of dollars running a campaign and winning! Only to then be told when your delegates show up that they are not allowed in the room, while the republican party selects delegates that are anti-you.

Who could possibly be for that scenario besides an abject moron? Remove the name Trump and replace it with your favorite candidate. Hillary? Bernie?

I don’t know what’s going on here. I’m pretty sure that I didn’t call this woman an Alinskyite or a Commie, but with my note deleted I can’t prove it.

She claims, “You should go back and reread your second post as you copied the COMMIE QUOTE TO IT.” I can find no second note with any “commie quote.”

I would appreciate access to any notes of mine in which I called this woman an Alinskyite or a Commie.
