So Trump wants to stop all the delegates from an entire state just because they don't want him? What a pathetic buffoon he is.

Do you strive to be the biggest Trump hater on this forum? I wonder sometimes if you do.

Anyway, what happened to this man is disgusting.

To think that people have been claiming that the GOP plays dirty in elections . . . . you mocked, but look at y'all now. Do you think this is their first time? Nah.

Sounds to me like it's a simple case of Trump not knowing what he's doing.

Because, as in sports and other things, it isn't just how many people are cheering you on, it is also how well you play the game. Otherwise, no one would lose home games.
Trump is not Republican. He's a johnny come lately usurper who doesn't understand the established rules and procedures and who thinks the quarterback should be decided by the fans.

Reasons not to vote for Trump:

I didn't know how we elect our candidates for government office by a coach or owner.



what is the establishment rules since they can change the rules and make it up as they go along?



you are defending the establishment, you must be in the minority within the party.

Hillary has no enthusiasm behind her. She will be president by default. It will be Clinton vs. Haley or Ryan. No one will show up and Hillary will win.
The 1237 delegates needed to win the nomination was set well before the start of the 2016 campaign, and hasn't changed at all. And no, Trump would never have beaten Clinton " if the party got out of his way on March 15 and rallied around him" because his personality, his style, his promises, and his ignorance repels so many voters.

The rules for 2016 will be written after all the states have already voted. It's like that to prevent what happened this year. The voters made a mistake by voting for Trump or Cruz. They really meant to vote for Jeb Bush or Paul Ryan. That's why we have delegates. The Delegates are much smarter than the voters. They know to keep the convention deadlocked until they can give the nomination to an establishment Republican. Thank God for delegates and superdelegates. They protect us. Can you imagine a general election between Sanders and Cruz or Trump? It will end up being Bush v Clinton - just like we all predicted a year ago.
