Ted Cruz's SELF SERVING effort Helping to Destroy The GOPe by BYPASSING the VOTER to TAKE DELEGATES.
This fellow in the video was a Republican Party State Delegate in Colorado. He was removed from his position because he voted for TRUMP. Not having a Primary, No Caucus, NO PUBLIC VOTE and CRUZ gets All THE DELEGATES. That is Disenfranchising the voters . . . and you don't think their will be a price to pay!

That’s Says it All. Thanks for sharing.
It doesn’t have to do with being naive, Color had a gop convention, with the leaders being establishment henchmen, so no Trump supporters would be allowed on the delegation. There’s nothing he could do, because his supporters couldn’t even get their foot in the door.
So he made a strategic decision to focus on new york and other primaries where the people actually vote.
Has FreeRepublic really sunk this low?
Im beginning to think that the GOPe is using Cruz to get rid of the Tea Party. Same with Beck trying to co-opt it and maginalize.

Cruz cannot win. There is no way he carries FL, OH, VA, MI, PA or a lot of other states that may be in the balance.
I believe the GOPe would prefer Hillary to Trump or Cruz. They just know that Ted is a sure loser in the general election. They probably hope this will shut him up too.
The GOPe stays in power if it’s business as usual. Trump would be a disruption to them. Ted has close to zero chance in the general election. People just wouldn’t be motivated to turn out and vote for him.
Huh? What happened?
I have no sound on this computer, looks bogus.
There was” no caucus?” What is that supposed to mean? Can anybody put this in writing? There weren’t a lot of Trump supporters that showed up for the March 1st caucus, so therefore, Trump did not get many delegates elected to the Assembly, I’m guessing 300-400 out of 3,900 at the Statewide Assembly. Only 4 Trump people showed up in my precinct (I was chair). Only one was even WILLING to fill any of the 4 Assembly slots, but he only got 4 votes.
Not my rules. I don't live in Colorado.
Here is the first rule homie, piss off your voters and watch your precious party burn.
These rules were changed eight months ago. Yet not a peep out of you about it. Why is that?
I can understand your support of Cruz, but you don’t seem to get
winning in this way will not endear him to American voters.
You are so blinded by your support, you cannot see that this will not
help Cruz, but will hurt him.
This is now open warfare. Prepare. This will not stand with the American people. Trump is the hands down favorite of the people with a 2 million vote lead on that scum bag adulterer and they will not put up with this crap. You started it. We will end it. Go Trump. God bless our democracy of the people, by the people and for the people. Get ready. You have pissed off millions!!
Cruz will regret this tone-deaf move. May be technically smart, but it’s emotionally dumb.
Most people have NO IDEA who “delegates” are
Nope. It’s Trump or no one. I a, staying a registered Repub just long enough to vote in this primary. The next day I will be changing my affiliation to Independent.
Thank You Donald Trump to exposing this Party as the elitist scum the Democrats see you as. I’ll never be one of them but I AM NOT one of you either.
It’s funny you mention that, I was reading through all the comments and I just had the exact same thought before I read yours...and you’re probably right.
Assume the usual position, Beanie:
Good points. And, yes, the GOPe would be totally happy with ANY Dem choice, it seems. One, big, happy ‘country club’.
Ha. You think your boy has a good ground game. The GOP mafiosi has a good ground game, and Cruz is a patsy who will be dropped by them at the convention.
Yep, it has. Every single time I read through a Trump thread. It's pretty shameful some of the comments.
In the real world, the government bailed out the financial institutions that brought the world to the brink of financial collapse through over-leveraging and derivatives. All legal. People were upset about that one too.
You and Cruz can giggle about how clever he is to outsmart Trump, but meanwhile with his cleverness Cruz is convincing more and more Trump supporters to shun Cruz in the general election. If people think they've been swindled, you're not going to convince them by telling them it's okay just because it was all done by the rules. In fact, that is likely to just make them madder.
But go ahead and chuckle about how clever Cruz is and how dumb Trump is. I'm sure it will make for some fond memories for you to reminisce about while you're watching Cruz lose in Florida, Ohio, and Virginia on election night.
