Stephen Miller may be the brightest official inside of politics today. The former Jeff Sessions’ staffer joined the Trump campaign in January. Miller went on America’s Newsroom today to discuss the Colorado voter-less scam and the current state of the GOP race for president.
This was another excellent interview by Stephen Miller.
“ The most wrong thing about it, of course, is that Colorado canceled their election so there wasn’t even a vote of the actual residents of Colorado. You have soldiers, men and women who fought from Colorado, who fought in Iraq so they could vote – Remember the purple fingers – Those same soldiers from Colorado couldn’t vote on presidential contests. But, I also saw, firsthand, Trump delegates missing from ballots, numbers on ballots that didn’t correspond with names, Cruz delegates that were double counted. All of this chaos that conveniently went down to the benefit of Ted Cruz…
…A news organization tweeted out a ballot that had a Cruz delegate that was counted twice. That was one of many irregularities…"

The GOPe insiders have a tough choice to make. They can side with an uncompromising conservative who will put them in difficult positions. His constant pushing of the conservative agenda will certainly make it hard for them to defend their wishy-washy, big government, big business socialist policies. Their other choice would be to side with a life long democrat orange colored clown who doesn’t even understand the most basic concepts of conservatism and will surely lose to Hillary.
I feel bad for them. It must be difficult for a progressive GOPe insider. That is why they first backed Jeb and then Rubio and only went with Ted after he was the least worst option left (for them). I think Lindsay Graham compared it to the choice between being shot or stabbed.
Make no mistake, they don’t like either candidate. They just know that Trump will lose in November and can’t be counted on to hold the same position on any policy for more than 18 months.
Trump generally wins when voters decide. Cruz always wins when the voters are bypassed and his fellow GOP establishment hacks decide. Cruz has only won 4 actual elections so far this primary season, that should tell you just how “popular” Calgary Ted is with voters.
Or you could leave now.
Oh, they've announced a GOP winner? When did that happen? I must have been grooming my Viking kitty...
Cruiser need to remember...
live by the sword die by the sword...
at some point the GOPe and then the Democrat will use the same underhanded tactics to take you out
And the final tactic that guarantees 100% Cruz will never be president ....is the Supreme Court ruling Ted is not an NBC....it the DC uniparty insurance policy
Be honest ...you know the Dem and GOPe have enough judges to judge shop to get it into the Supreme Court....
Now make a list of every Supreme Court Justice we have right now
Tell me which way each will vote on Ted Cruz being an NBC that if that ever came up?
And which direction will the political pressure be applied for the Supreme Court judges to rule?
remember gay marriage?....remember Obamacare? ....you know the answer..... you just keep lying to yourself
I’m not the one COMPLAINING about what Colorado did in selecting it’s delegates!!
That’s you guys and if you’re not FROM Colorado you have zero right to complain.
The bottom line here is, Trump wasn’t going to win CO anyway. This is about painting Cruz as a lying, cheating, beltway insider.
Soooooo this is a boom?
Anyone who thinks that Trump alone can fix the government is deluding themselves. The Constitution will stop him in many cases and the GOP/Rats will stop him at many other efforts.
When you are playing with other people's money you can't lose.
The rules weren’t stacked, his campaign is disorganized.
The thing Trump will never accept responsibility for his failures.
Make no mistake, they don’t like either candidate. They just know that Trump will lose in November and can’t be counted on to hold the same position on any policy for more than 18 months.

Totally disagree. Cruz collects a government paycheck, government benefits, and donor goodies.
Trump makes his own paycheck, his own benefits, creates tens of thousands of jobs and billions in wealth.
Cruz is a net expense and has never created anything.
The big picture problem is not rocket science to anyone who is not stuck staring at one tree so long they get so cross-eyed they think the fuzzy thing they see is the whole forest.
What happened In Colorado is indefensible on any coherent, rational, ethical, or moral ground. Everyone know this. THAT is the big picture, that is the forest - and exactly why Trump is so much more popular than any other candidate. THAT is why there is a movement like we have never before seen in American politics. Trump is blowing up the status-quo Americans have HATED for so long. And Colorado gave him more ammunition in that fight for freedom for establishment elitists cramming what they want down our throats.
Cruz told the Colorado crowd earlier that it’s easy to talk about making America great again — “you can even print that on a baseball cap” — but that the more important question is which candidate understands “the principles and values that made America great in the first place.”
Does that mean getting in bed with and wildly fornicating and fluffing every establishment elitist he can get close to?
Wow he makes me sick. To think I bought his book “A Time For Truth”. I actually believed he was “the only principled candidate in the race”. He proved how stupid I was to believe him. Six months ago no one would have believed Cruz would be where he is right now - in bed with the GOP elite.
I’ll still vote for him if he is the nominee but I’d like a refund on the book.
No it was done to defeat Trump, they will not support Cruz at the convention.
LOL what a convincing argument coming from a Trump supporter such as yourself. As if you’ve never issued an insult to a Cruz supporter.
Please Gil, your hypocrisy slip is showing.
Really though, that’s the best retort you have to the post I made? Whining about insults?
Why not Trump whines about not knowing the rules of a game known to everyone else for months. Why shouldn’t you take his lead and not whine about insults when your camp has been the KING of the insult hill for months now!
Boom. Trump spokesman offers no proof for statements about Colorado. Says “ I am backing Trump , I don’t need no stinking proof. We never need any stinking proof. I don’t have to show you any stinking proof”
Trump announced his candidacy June 16, 2015. By my count, that's at least a month and a half before these rules changes were inaugurated.
These rules changes came about largely so that Jeb wouldn't have a problem in the state. They greased the skids for him.
Unfortunately, Trump took off like an eagle. Bush foundered badly and dropped out.
But never underestimate the capacity of the GOP-E to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Emboldened by the national Stop Trump movement (which from the very start feverishly gripped the Establishment), they simply down-shifted a bit, and kept the original plan in place, to use against whatever sucker arose to supplant Jeb.
Another poster had it right - for Cruz, this is a Pyrrhic victory. The sheen is off this guy, having exposed himself to one and all that he is no "Principled Conservative".
In other words, to secure short-term gain, he's sacrificed a goodly portion of what was supposed to be his "base".
It's always fascinating watching a train wreck like this happening before your very eyes, in slow motion yet!
CA....
Exactly. It has nothing to do with the rules being changed in August 2015, it has to do with the fraud that is going on in reference to the delegate selection. Is GOP Insiders that are manipulating against Trump.
