Colorado GOP Lied About #NeverTrump Tweet – The Account Was Not Hacked
The Gateway Pundit ^ | Apr 11th, 2016 | Jim Hoft

The Republican party said this tweet saying the account was hacked.

But that is a lie.

The party deleted the tweet only three minutes after it was posted – meaning they still had control of the account. It was not hacked – it was a Republican party insider.

That is a weird assumption, hm? Someone doesn’t know how “being hacked” works, clearly.

You can’t collude with both sides when one side doesn’t show up.

Changing the subject too!

Jeez.

But yes, please. Keep on promoting totalitarianism because you hate Donald Trump THAT much.

“Unauthorized access”

LOLOL!!! What a joke.

They are getting outright KILLED on this. That is the consequence of their own actions. They made their bed, not it’s theirs to sleep in. They are NOT immune to the laws of cause and effect.

My premise? I posted a quote. That is the narrative out there now, cologop should have has better control of their account. That they didn’t has NOTHING to do with me personally.

Exactly. The GOPe State Machines “helped” Cruz “win” with primarily State Party Officers, large donors and party faithful selected as the delegates...

They do not see it yet..

Hey Dynoman! Did you see the just-released Connecticut poll from Emerson?

Thump 50. Kasich 26. Cruz 17.

The fruits of Colorado. Cruz now distant third in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut...

I haven't seen anything from New Jersey or Rhode Island yet, but I can't imagine it will be any different.

Yeah it was such a legit operation it was only coincidence the delegates chosen just happened to primarily be State Party officers, Big donors and party faithful. Yep all above Board...

That’s what I mean. Those are the consequences - consequences that could have been anticipated with even a small amount of strategic thinking skill.

The law of cause and effect his biting him big time.

I’ve been in the computer field for 25 years. I know my terms.

39 years in IT for me.

...and the timing and content of that tweet is the giveaway.

This isn’t about Trump, other than your loathing of him.

This is about you supporting totalitarianism.

Why?

He’s running as a reformer, so looking to shame them rather than spend inordinate effort (in proportion to the delegates garnered) trying to push over the Great Wall Of Colorado arguably made sense. But he couldn’t have possibly predicted this tweet. They might as well have tweeted a cartoon of an elephant on a gallows.

When Trump rages, maybe there’s a method to his madness. Maybe he’s trying to uncork public anger at an unresponsive body politic, of both parties.

Out of curiosity, if your child tweeted from your computer while you went to the bathroom, would you characterize that as a “hack”?

The last tweet was the result of unauthorized access to our account and in no way represents the opinion of the party. We are investigating.— The Colorado GOP (@cologop) April 10, 2016



hack past tense: hacked; past participle: hacked

2. Use a computer to gain unauthorized access

Defending what there is no rational, coherent, or ethical defense for never goes well. Give it up, it's a losing battle.

With three exclamation points?

Cruz ain’t any American Revolution. Cruz is schmoozing with King George’s guys.

What if you tweeted yourself after having too many martinis?
