His campaign guy, that Lt Gov. of Texas, spilled the beans tonight on Cavuto’s show:
Cruz is busy now planting delegates in all the states, so that in Round 2, Trump delegates will VOTE CRUZ, not Trump.
Trump will spoil those plans by winning more than 1237 delegates.
Why are Cruz, Romney and Paul Ryan so clueless in thinking that the majority of primary voters, talking millions of people, chose Trump and that they are going to be shunned on all levels of society for their attempt to back door themselves of their preferred candidate, i.e.: Ryan for Romney at the Convention? There really seems to be a disconnect on the part of the people who are trying to get delegates to vote for them even if the vast majority of the population of the county they come from wanted Trump as the nominee.
For Cruz to focus on Trump delegates, a select group of people in states all over the nation whose own citizens chose Trump over Cruz in the primary seems very very STRANGE. LIke give it up, quit trying to maneuver and back door yourself into the nomination.
Only Trump has put himself on the line as it relates to taking a stand for putting America first since he first advised he was running. If Romney and the Bush people try to back door Paul Ryan, Ryan will get openly booed at the RNC convention. Ryan hasn’t had to do all the interview Trump has made himself available for, Ryan has not had the debates Trump has had. The RNC made Trump point blank say they would support him and now the RNC is trying to do the opposite by nominating Paul Ryan?
The consultants, Romney and Bush family who are driving the RNC convention backdoor take over will be openly booed throughout the day if they try to steal this nomination from Trump and Trump voters.
Really disappointing that this is the USA...and this is what our election has become. I don’t want to hear anymore about a “constitutional conservative” from Cruz. Maneuvering to steal an election from the candidate the people chose? Our Founding Fathers would be appalled.
This is very possible, and has been done before at Convention. It is enabled when state high office holders pick electoral delegates who support the usurper (Cruz) and do not pick any TRUMP supporters. Then it’s over.
TRUMP supporters didn’t go to their precinct meetings, or their county conventions, or try to be delegates to the state convention, so they could try and be delegates to National, in Cleveland.
We just mostly cheered him but failed to become delegates for him, where he is going to need us most.
