The system is obviously unfair. It is biased towards democratic strong holds. Is it rigged? Well why would the party want to reward democratic districts with the same # of delegates as strongly Rep. districts?? Some districts vote 90%+ for the democratic congressman. The few Rep. are more easily controlled by the State/National party.
As for Trump getting more delegates than his % of the vote. That is always the way it works. Winners win and losers don’t. If the Superbowl is 30-28 the team with 30 wins it all. I think Trump was completely naive and unprepared for a rumble for delegates. He thought he could go out and win the most votes and that would be it. He also tried to do it “cheap”. Additionally, many of his supporters are new to politics. Sanders suffers the same problem. However as is usually true the people will have the last laugh, and it won’t be pretty. Popcorn anyone??

o Trump was anything but naive, he is a bully and bomb thrower who will destroy anything in his path.
Apparently this worked in the real estate business he runs (but not in other endeavors he has failed at) but when you play this game with politics you are being very reckless.
“However as usually true the people will have the last laugh, and it won’t be pretty.”
‘Sounds like the Obama election to me and there is little difference in the way they ran their campaigns on a few soundbites(remember “hope and change” as compared to “Make America great again”?) They are both petulant foot stamping children when they don’t get their way and they are both narcisstic autocrats. Trump even said if he ever ran, it would be as a Republican because they are stupid. Even his kids are registered dems. You’re right—get out the popcorn
