CONFIRMED: Cruz Camp Stealing Trump Delegates from States Trump Won (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit ^ | March 31, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Townhall reporter Guy Benson today admitted the Cruz campaign is stealing Trump delegates in states that Trump won.

The Ted Cruz campaign is running Cruz supporters as Trump delegates in states that Trump won. That way they can steal the nomination from Trump in Cleveland although they’ve only won a fraction of the states Trump has won.

Guy Benson: This has been percolating for several months. He has a very sharp legal team that know the rules inside and out in a way the Trump campaign clearly does not. It’s not just Louisiana. And it’s not just finagling to just get Rubio delegates or unbound delegates. What they’re also doing is getting people elected as Trump delegates who are not, in fact, Trump loyalists. So they would be bound to Donald Trump on the first ballot only. After which, although they are technically Trump delegates, they’ve been sort of put in place to jump.

And these are the same people who call Trump supporters ‘morons’ one day and beg them to support Ted Cruz the next.

It’s called reading the rulebook.

This will not end well.Cruz again is showing that he is a sleaze. Cruz would not make a good president.

Cruz is simply a sleazy character.

Playing by the rules. Sounds devious.

What are you worried about? I thought Trump was going to get to 1237 without any problems.

no it is violating the sanctity of the voting citizens.

Why bother with primaries if some party sleaze will just ignore the vote.

Cruz is too stupid (arrogant) to understand he is being used and even if he wins, he will be the designated loser ala McCain, Romney, Dole.

Proper title:

“Trump Campaign So Incompetent They Do Not Know The Primary Electioneering Rules, Getting De-Pantsed”

So much for surrounding yourself the the smartest people.

Give it a rest and you know damn well that if this was happening to cruz and it was Kasich doing it you would be pissed off.

We vote to send the delegates to represent out vote, if the delegates are being paid off to not vote for who we want then it is is a waste of time us voting and it shows how corrupt the system is.

So again I am sick and tired of people like you and the media putting out the hypocrisy and lies.

Maybe he’ll be able to cheat the Russians out of Ukraine and cheat the North Koreans and Iranians out of their nukes

Think of the possibilities for an unlikeable and unpopular man to assert control over situations by using a book of rules

I was a Cruz supporter, but the more I see this sort of thing happening, the more I support Trump. Cruz isn’t much better than one of the establishment guys.

Maybe, but since we have had a Cheater in Chief already for 8 years , we should hardly have another cheater for another 4.

The PEOPLE are the ones cheated. No one cheats the Russians , Koreans and Iranians. Only the threat of force majeur works there.Cruz would chat our military so bad that they would not arrive at the possibility of strength.

Maybe that's how you like your government being run. By elites. Ignoring the will of the people.

This must be an April Fool’s joke since it implies that Cruz is actually smarter than Trump.

We all know that’s impossible.

It is called being without honor...winning by any means is a disservice to the Americans whom voted for Trump. Cruz has had a truly failed candidacy and evidently has absolutely no regard for the Americans who chose Trump.

How this saddens my heart where you have this kind of scumbag literally attempting to steal the election and some people like think it is clever.

Makes me sick to hear and see , even on here people saying the establishment rigged rules is OK, but if this was happening to cruz by Kasich or anyone else they would be outraged.

The same people who have no problem with these rules now are the same people who was against the establishment and now are for them to stop Trump.
It is disgusting and the people who support this are no better than the left wing hypocrites.

Remember this when he tried to state it was Trump who was the insider and now he is that guy .
“Let me encourage other members of the establishment: Keep supporting Donald Trump because every time you do it, what it is doing is telling conservatives all over the country is where you stand and who stands with you”.
- Ted Cruz, New Hampshire stump speech

Well then why doesn’t he just announce it out loud if it’s something you all are proud of?

Seeing that you all keep using the same dry reply every time this is brought up shoes that you aren’t even all that hot about this, but don’t want to be seen being critical of Ted in public.
