Of course there is a contradiction. You’re saying the delegates can choose whoever represents the views of the party. The party. Not the voters, the party. Ironic how the so-called antiestablishment candidate is now all for the establishment with the establishment backing him.

There is no contradiction in what I said. The delegates can choose whoever represents the views of the party, *meaning the delegates themselves*. They are the party at that point, making the decision about who the party nominates. You are conflating the delegates with the dreaded GOPe. If you have such a problem with every Republican activist in the country then you should probably be on DU instead of FR.
