"You are absolutely wrong that the establishment and the bush family is behind Cruz."

Using the sarcasm tag will let people know that you are kidding.

NONE of this would be out in the open for ALL to understand if not for Trump, GOP AND DNC totally taking advantage of an uninformed public that just goes to vote NOT knowing of these obnoxious archanian rules!!! PEOPLE are VERY involved this cycle, and they DON’T LIKE what they are learning!!!!

How can they be both "uninformed" and "very involved" at the same time?

The GOPe is upset he said it is rigged. It is rigged. Everyone can see it. Everyone knows it. Even MSNBC said both party’s primary systems are rigged for goodness sake. It is rigged!

The system is not “rigged”.

They were never going to let Trump win.

If you were smarter, you’d understand....

Well known that Colorado changed their rules in August 2015, so less than a year ago. Quit lying.

Well, I never bought into them being nice people but one can view someone as a nice person even though they set up a rigged system. In other words, your complaint does not logically follow (if rigged, then not nice people) = false.

W. came out against Cruz in South Carolina, when brother Jeb was still in the race.

Laura Bush indicated she might vote for Hillary over TRUMP. That's not the same as disavowing Cruz.

In the meantime, you have Jeb Bush outright endorsing Cruz, Neil Bush working for Cruz, Laura Bush refusing to commit to vote for Trump if he is the Republican nominee, and Barbara Bush saying she's "sick of him", referring to Trump.

And you're going to sit there and claim that Cruz isn't beholden to the Bush family and the gopE.

He needs to start with Sean Spicer who has been anti Trump since day one, who has colluded with the networks in an attempt to sabotage Trump during the debates, has stacked the audiences against Trump, had Fox ask Trump if he would go 3rd party for the first question in the first debate.

Over and over again this guy Sean Spicer has attempted to take out Trump.

Ultimate would be for Trump to win, remove the shady influence of the Bush and Romney people over the RNC and get rid of Spicer and Reibus.

That is why they are fighting Trump so much. It is personal and they are afraid of losing their jobs. There jobs are safe as long as Romney and Bush, et al. are in control behind the scenes. These people are so anti-American. The Bushes only care about their ego and are butt hurt that Jeb lost.

People can be in the election cycle without knowing all of these STUPID rules ALL different in every state!!! The average Joe just trying to raise his family and work hard everyday pays NO DAMNED attention to these rules that WERE SET UP deliberately to make sure that an everyday citizen could NEVER win an election in this country!!! Our founders intended this nation to be run by EVERYDAY citizens and business owners then go home to their families and businesses!! INSTEAD we have a bunch of DAMN lawyers running the place FOREVER because NO ONE can begin to understand ALL of the CRAP these elite BASTARDS have put in place to secure their happy asses!!!!

Romney, Bush are calling the shots. But notice we do not hear a peep out of them.

LOL They were exposed and are now embarrassed and refuse to own their Trump hate. Such losers.

Romney and Ryan lost, like they have any right to lecture someone like Trump who is much more popular than they are.

As His Party Implodes Over Trump, RNC Sean Spicer Says 'It's A Great Day To Be A Republican

As usual, it’s Trump versus everyone.
(I mean, Trump *and the American people*.)

He’s going to run them off like St. Patrick ran the snakes out of Ireland.
And they know it, that’s why they’re all hissing.

Cruz is just a bump-in-the-road: the latest GOP-e champ and the first chummmm-p. Next Tuesday, he gets taken to the woodshed.

Also didn’t Ted and Heidi meet when working for Bush campaign? Wonder how they got that job in 2000.
Who set Rafael Cruz up in the oil business after 1963.
Interesting Rafael got USA citizenship early 2000.
Beware of the Bush ... Just ask jfk.

They changed the rules in an effort to stop Trump and get Jeb the win.

Fast forward, Jeb was done after S Carolina, but that didn’t stop the Bush’s from attempting to get revenge on Trump. The CO change was an effort to stop the most popular candidate, the front runner Donald Trump. So while they had hoped to move all the non-votes to Jeb, they settled with Cruz. But there is no doubt the whole scheme was set up to take out the front runner as a favor to the now silent and embarrassed Bush and Romney families.

I wonder if the Don has considered contracting a little payback on one or two of these GOPe @$$holes using a bentnose from Jersey.
