Yup, those demons who run the Colorado GOP had it in for Donald Trump all the way back in August of last year.

Mr. Trump needs to make them pay for their arrogance and prescience! Anybody who is opposed to Trump needs to be immediately deported to Canada, along with Lyin, Vote-Stealin, Delegate-Poachin Ted, the Canadian double agent who works for the globalist banking cabal.

The only thing in Colorado that was different in 2016 was that the non-binding straw poll was eliminated. How does someone voting in a non-binding poll make a difference anyway? It’s just a waste of money.

Trump is wrong on this. They screwed Santorum last time. Santorum won the straw poll at the convention with nearly 40% of the vote but almost all the delegates went to the #2 guy - Romney.

Notice I believe this was a straw vote of people in the actual room

The Colorado system is a slave to the GrOP-E

The Colorado GOP bosses did not allow the Republicans to vote, and Colorado’s electoral votes are going to Clinton.

You think that anyone opposed to Trump should be “immediately deported?” I hope the majority of Trump supporters don’t share your sentiments. Melodramatic much or just for rescinding the citizenship of those who disagree with you?

That is almost exactly right, but you missed the part where the Colorado gop was being directed from DC gopE. You know, the people supporting cruz.

"I came out in June, they saw I was going to win Colorado easily with the voters, which is most important, so they changed the rules and they took the voters out of it and they had the party bosses make the selection."

Last August I don't think anyone other than Trump thought that he would anything.

Actually, they knew Trump was coming way back in 1912 - that is when the delegate selection method they used was first introduced.

"Nomination process known for a year + beyond. It's the responsibility of the campaigns to understand it. Complaints now? Give us all a break," Priebus tweeted.

I didn't realize that August 2015, when the CO GOP changed the rules, was over a year ago.

First, CO GOP changed the rules in August to leave the delegates unbound until the national convention. Then they had a surprise state convention to bind the delegates anyway. We know they told the Cruz campaign--but did they inform the Trump campaign at the same time? Or did they wait until the last minute to tell the Trump campaign about the state convention?

I love the fact that Trump is highlighting the irregularities of the Cruz camp. Cruz is dropping like a rock.

The nominating system is crap. We need a system that reflects the will of the voters, and if we can’t have that, don’t expect any support from the voters.

I knew that GOP leadership, especially in Congress, has been duplicitous, appeasing - cowardly if I were to try and put a single word on it, but in my wildest dreams or drunken stupor

I’d never have believed that GOP could be best likened to Union Leadership. But there it is, there they are, in all their union glory doing what they damned well want.

He’s absolutely right. Cruzer Rush Limbaugh went into this all week.

The delegate system in Colorado has been the same for years, they just did away with the straw poll. And it was not changed because of Trump, but I guess if one thinks the world revolves around oneself, then naturally everything that happens directly relates to that individual
