Colorado was Ted Cruz's pyrrhic victory; he shot his credibility to hell for all of thirty delegates.
Colorado was Ted Cruz's pyrrhic victory; he shot his credibility to hell for all of thirty delegates.
The Colorado dopes made Trump the underdog once again. America loves the underdog and they voted for him in New York.
It bears repeating.
The delegates Cruz acquired in Colorado and Wyoming were obtained not by the results of an open primary election or caucus, but by the election of delegates by GOP party activists who favor Cruz at the party conventions of the two states in question.
Those delegates were not earned by winning the vote of the people, but by selection by party insiders and activists. Anyone not blinded to supporting Ted Cruz with the “by any means necessary” mindset can see the difference in how those delegates were obtained and we don’t like it.
One needs only to look at Cruz’s polling numbers since for proof that the majority of people NOT supporting Cruz didn’t like the way he got those delegates.
Cruz and his supporters will soon find out that those 48 delegates Cruz obtained at those two conventions where the people of Colorado and Wyoming didn’t get to cast their vote for the candidate of their choice will end up being the most costly delegates in election history.
The “system is rigged meme” has the advantage of being demonstrably true.
