Ted Cruz's "Stealth" Plan To Defeat Donald Trump - EXPOSED!
thepoliticalinsider ^ | March 22 2016 | Kosar

So far, the delegate count math has looked good for conservative businessman Donald J. Trump. But now, the GOP establishment is involved, and will stop at nothing to prevent Trump from winning the White House.

Now, a bombshell new report shows Cruz is running a “stealth” and “under the radar” campaign to force a contested RNC convention battle in Cleveland, Ohio against Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich.

The goal is to keep Trump from winning on the first ballot, which frees most delegates to pick a new candidate, instead of being tied to their state’s primary/caucus winner. Team Cruz wants to jam the convention full of supporters and overload the process, ensuring Cruz wins the election.

This is amazing:

[ ]

Mr. Frost estimates that Cruz supporters will make up 90% of Coweta County’s delegates at Georgia’s coming state and district gatherings, from which delegates to the national convention will be chosen. “We’re trying to get Cruz supporters there so when delegates can vote for whoever they want, they will vote for Ted,’’ Mr. Frost said.

The RNC makes the rules and if they want to use the nuclear option, no agreements with delegates will matter.

Maybe I don’t get it. Most Mormons are mad at Trump because he didn’t like the unprecedented personal nature of Mitt’s attacks upon Trump.

Maybe they should re-read what Mitt said.

And what did Trump say, Mitt didn’t go on Letterman and Leno and disappeared to build his 9 car garage and let Obama a failed President win. Its all True

Maybe many Mormons don’t think Mitt Choked, but its a fair opinion many of us share.

I had great respect for most Mormons, we are upset with Mitt going after our front runner like he did. After all my point is that he should be a candidate if he wants to tee off on Trump. Mitt should be in the game and then its appropriate to attack. Otherwise STFU Romney. Mitts father did the same thing only he was running for in a campaign not attacking from the sidelines, blindsiding.

This is not an attack at all on Mormons, don’t you Mormons see Mitt not Mormons is being attacked?

Cruz is the most conservative candidate in the race, and I suspect he’s getting assurances that the establishment would rather have him than Trump, and he’s trusting them. [Note: the establishment was not pretending to hate Cruz; they really hate him, which makes it easier for them to lie to him and set him up.] What I actually expect if Cruz stops Trump is for the delegates to be pressured to choose a third candidate, possibly Kasich, but more likely a pro-Amnesty establishment figure who didn’t run at all this year.


You having a day dream. Any shenanigans and Trump + his 12 million voters blow up GOP. Comprende?

Back in Lincoln’s day it was easier to pull stealth moves, communication was limited to the “wire”. Things are different now. The Japs couldn’t do Pearl Harbor again and a stolen convention is much much less likely.

Its like he doesn’t understand that he’s supposed to just drop out and let Trump win.

Ted is the fulfillment of the "White Horse Prophesy" so you know he was always going to be the chosen one.

And if that didn't work, getting the polygamists in Utah to stuff ballots was his back up plan.

After they steal the nomination from Trump, they actually expect his voters to line up with Cruz or whoever else they pick.

Good luck with that plan. Say hello to Hillary as President.

There is nothing “stealth” about the Cruz plan.

If games are played, I will write in Trump and the down ballot will be revenge.
