No one planned for Jeb to be sidelined, but Trump did it anyway.
So Jeb dropped out.
Since he has suspended his campaign, they needed an insider to be a place holder for the delegates and that turns out to be Cruz, who will control those delegates until the Convention, then, after a few slight of hand tricks, they are slated to go back to Jeb, or maybe Mitt.
Cruz will never get to enjoy the delegates at the convention.
You do not have a clue about what you are saying. You made this up out of complete ignorance of how these delegates were selected.
Mr. Trump is a special person and needs special treatment. Rules do not apply to The Donald. He is ... Hope and Change.
You are so right! The GOPe would have shut it all down if Jeb was in Trumps position several primaries ago. Declaring Jeb the winner! So they decided not to involve the electorate since it would have been over by the time it got to Colorado. Because the oligarchy miscalculated the CO party has got major butt hurt!
That theory has been advanced and debunked. Bush has been out a long time.
Colorado voted for Cruz as a candidate, not a place holder.
“The CO delegates were originally slated to all go for Jeb Bush.”
Where do you get this stuff?
Clearly made up by you or a bad source!
As for participation of the Trumpites, check out what Larry Wayne Lindsey with the Douglas County, Colorado, GOP and a Trump supporter had to say about the delegate selection process.
To hell with the GOP! (updated video)
It appears that the deck was stacked all along
“simple straw-poll”
The GOPe and and Cruz and the Bush pigs and their corrupt, undemocratic, Party Syndicalism and their “simple straw-poll” and stick it where the sun don’t shine. Get these un-American oligarchs out, and send Cruz and his foreign Falangismo rule by Party delegates back to whatever island he and his blood suckers crawled out from under. Get out of my country, with your foreign Falagismo rule by “delegates” and this entire corrupt “system”. Screw them, this is all about an oligarchic rule trying to crush the anti-establishment by means of despotism and syndicalism by Party elites.
STOP CRUZ!
FREE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!
