Donald Trump vented Monday over the delegate fight on which his campaign has been repeatedly outfoxed, slamming the situation in Colorado as a "crooked deal."

This one underwent a major reanimation today by the GOPe.
“Instead, the stupid old man sat back in his jet until it was too late and now he’s whining that it was “stolen” from him. Sorry you deranged infantile cretin, but no one can “steal” what you never had in the first place.”
^^That^^
No, it’s not Cruz’s fault that Trump thinks we’re a democracy and is a whining, juvenile moron. But it is a fact that Trump supporters are trying to morph into being Ctuz’s fault.
Either that, or a twelve year old.
How embarrassing - for that bot.

To narrow the field, each presidential campaign printed up slates listing the national delegate candidates [from Colorado] that they had endorsed. Those slates were handed out by volunteers at the convention.
But the slates put out by the Trump campaign contained numerous errors when it matched names to ballot numbers. At the Congressional District 7 convention Thursday night where three convention delegates were selected, the slate printed by the Trump campaign contained the names of two delegate candidates supporting Trump who weren’t even running in that district.
On the first slate printed by Trump campaign for Saturday’s election — which detailed the names and ballot numbers of 26 people who were running to be Trump delegates at the convention — more than a half dozen names were listed with inaccurate ballot numbers.
The Trump campaign printed a second slate that was meant to correct the corresponding numbers and names that were wrong on the first slate. But there were mistakes on the second as well.
The campaigns of Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich did not have the same problems — suggesting that the mistakes could have amounted to printing errors by the Trump campaign on their slates.

"@vivhall3: @realDonaldTrump here your delegate replaced at CO GOP convention. https://t.co/NxYhzdcMS0" Very sad!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 10, 2016
Our entire electoral process has been corrupted, undermined and compromised. This started decades ago with the corrupt in D.C. intentionally flooding the country with tens of millions of illegals, and their destructive chain immigration policies.
That wasn’t’ enough, now D.C. insiders are in the process of telling the voters to F off, and they will instead attempt to pick and install a president for you.
And just minutes ago, they just announced Goldman Sachs, where Cruz’s wife is a Managing Director, was just fined 5 BILLION for FRAUD.
They have corrupted and subverted our entire system.
Same reason Trump didn’t get 50% in SC or Florida.
It’s a good excuse for Cruz but not Trump, LOL?
