Tensions between the Republican Party and its own front-runner erupted into a full-blown public battle as top party officials rebuked Donald Trump on Friday for alleging that the GOP primary system was “rigged” against him.
The dispute, which has been simmering for days, centers on Trump’s failure to win any delegates last weekend in Colorado, which selected its 34 delegates at a party convention rather than a primary attended by voters. All went to Trump’s chief rival, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.
The outcome prompted a daily stream of complaints and allegations this week from Trump, who wrote in an op-ed published in Friday’s Wall Street Journal that the “system is being rigged by party operatives with ‘double-agent’ delegates who reject the decisions of voters.”

The GOP is used to dirty tricks under the radar. They’re pissed now because Trump’s making their rigged elections public.
So he’s gonna threaten to tear up the loyalty pledge, AGAIN.
He just had a meeting with them (Reese pieces) a week ago and THEN talked about what good people they were, which is it?
Grabbing the popcorn
This should be good.
This is the best strategy for Trump. Run against the party within the party. Run against both parties.
Don’t watch those silly caucus results. There is no man behind the curtain. Keep your eyes on the smoke and mirrors.
The caucuses are closed shops, and the RNC is making sure Ted wins almost every one of them.
His “ground game” is the RNC’s vice grip on those states.
Ted is a total fraud.
What happens when he has to face a Democrat in those states?
Who will support him a few hundred delegates the RNC no longer controls?
President Trump’s first days are going to booked solid but one thing he will place at the top of things to do is to clean out the bastards who think they own the GOP.
Vote Trump
Cruz is the perfect patsy for the GOPe, in trying to keep Trump from getting the nomination and likely the presidency.
GOPe is in bed with the Democrats for a Hillary presidency.
See:
Tech billionaires (major Dem donors) plot with GOP leaders at exclusive island resort to stop Trump
How’s he gonna do that?
and now just watch, as the GOP starts to grow closer to Trump, in realization that he’s not only poised to win the nomination but that he’s got their rigged game figured out.
COLORADO is for CHEATERS!
In 2012, 66,000 Republicans voted.
Rick Santorum beat Mitt Romney with over 6% of the vote.
Rick got only 6 delegates.
Romney took 28 delegates
Colorado’s good at cheatin’
Most the folks too high to notice.
If the Colorado shenanigans were legal and according to the rules, then it is especially damning that the Colorado Republican establishment would consciously make rules to nullify the votes of the common voter.
In other words, they disenfranchised the voters.
I call him "The Unipatsy" - the Uniparty's patsy...
Check post #13 for a GTFO.
GTFO.
He could give them twenty-one days to make major changes or he would switch his party affiliation.
That would leave the Republican party with about 10% of it’s registered voters in 60 days.
One elected, he owns them.
People in Congress would switch affiliations or be voted out the next time they come to bat.
The public has had it with the RNC.
They either get religion now, or they are out!
Unfrackingbelievable. Dirtbags.
Both the GOP and DNC primaries are clearly rigged. This selection season has shown that very clearly.
