Still Team Trump had 4 years to learn them. Sad excuse.
Did the people in Colorado have a say in that there would be no primary or caucus held in 2016? WTH is that all about? How can you defend the shenanigans of that process and the trickery it invites?
It’s bad, now Cruz reminds me of Dexter.
The grassroots Republicans in the party have the say of how their process works. Why would you open up party rules to a popular vote? That makes no sense.
If Cruz had not become the GOP new golden boy, then Cruz would not be getting these delegates either. He would also be getting shut out at the gate. Everyone knows it and that is why its particularly disgusting and distasteful. What a Patsy!
Sorry, onyx. I have to disagree. This type of vitriol only goes on to split the party. Remember, whoever gets the nomination is going to need the rest of the party’s support in the general election.
Cruz reminds me of Uriah Heep.....and Mr. Haney.
George Washington was against the formations of political parties. What a wise man he was. Imagine if each ‘pol’ could run on their own merits and vote for or against policies based on what their constituents wanted instead of what the party line pressures them with to tow the line?
Yeh I know——that ain’t happenin’.
Actually, their is a 200 plus year old “rule” that Ted “pricipaled conservative” Cruz chooses to ignore> that the President must be a natural born US Citizen.
Ted Cruz is a Canadian!
Cruz‘s campaign is built on a lie
A friend of mine has said our power to vote for working age people should be one vote per each $10,000 earned.
Not Constitutional, but it would stop the takers from destroying the country with hand outs.
Well Trump had a rep for playing hardball when working a deal now his stooges whine when they are failing because they don’t understand the rules to funny.
I really wish people would stop with the NAZI references whenever they want to make a point. It’s either NAZI or Racist.
I don’t blame Trump for not wanting to follow rulse after playing in the bureacratic mess involved with land development. But this ain’t that.
Typical Trump sore loser.
If you cant hire(recruit) and run a competent campaign Don then Hillary will have you for lunch.
pro NAFTA
pro TPP
pro open borders
pro deficit spending.
The general population no, but the political parties have organizers and members and events across the state that define their rules. Then the Secretary of State for each of those states had to approve of the particular process of each party.
So Colorado Repub grassroot smokers ‘rules’ allow no public votes and can nudge Trump pledged delegates off the ballots too. Talk about ‘elites’ running the show. Sorry man those rules stink bad. That dude who burned his Colorado Repub party registration cetificate was not without merit.
Yup. No need for these rally thingies:
Everyone can stay home and let the GOP appoint the next president.
Total incompetence is to blame, not an unfair or “rigged” process:
One of the delegates had failed to pay the necessary fee to get on the ballot. He assumed the other was left off for similar reasons.
“Administrative error,” he said.
Trump hires the best people. The best!
