Matt Drudge: ‘Hello Colorado Republicans, even Iraqis get a vote’

by Alex Swoyer
12 Apr 2016
Washington, DC

Matt Drudge is weighing in on the results in Colorado, where Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) received at least 30 of the 37 delegates following the state Republican Party Convention last weekend.

“Does George Bush have to invade Colorado to make it a Democracy? STUNNING Republicans had NO PRIMARY or CAUCUS. At least Dems are faking it!” Drudge posted on Twitter.

MATT DRUDGE
@DRUDGE

Hello Colorado Republicans, even Iraqis get a vote!

http://www.wnd.com/2016/04/trump-erupts-as-cruz-sweeps-colorado-without-votes/

8:48 AM - 11 Apr 2016

When Republican party leaders decided not to hold a primary or caucus in Colorado, The Denver Post reported:

The Colorado system often favors anti-establishment candidates who draw a dedicated following among activists — as evidenced by Rick Santorum’s victory in 2012 caucus. So the party’s move may hurt GOP contenders such as Donald Trump, Ben Carson and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who would have received a boost if they won the state.

During a campaign rally on Monday night, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump called Colorado “a fix” because instead of holding an election, the GOP decided to do it through delegates.

During a campaign rally on Monday night, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump called Colorado “a fix” because instead of holding an election, the GOP decided to do it through delegates.

Trump's right: It's completely a fix - a naked, sordid, corrupt fix.

But the beauty this time is that, no matter what, the Republicans will not get away with it in the end.

This time, one of two things will happen:

(1) The Establishment will play its games, but Trump will win the nomination anyway, and then, as President and head of the party, he will politically massacre the elements of the Republican Party that stood against him, forcibly exclude them from power and decision-taking, etc. If Trump wins, the Establishment will be wiped out by the new rulers of the GOP. OR

(2) The Establishment will get its way, Trump will be robbed of the nomination, and then the Republican nominee, whoever it is, will go down in flaming defeat in November. In the political rebellion that will ensure, the Republicans will lose Congress, the Democrats will sweep, and then, with control of Congress AND the Supreme Court, the Democrats will enact their entire agenda and take away the wealth of the top Republican donors through a combination of taxation and regulation.

No matter what, the Establishment and their crony capitalist financiers are going to get wiped out of power. The only question is whether it will be substantial, through Trump, or irreversible, through the Democrats.

I'd prefer Trump, but if no Trump, Hillary will do also. The Republicans have put themselves in the position of Hitler and Nazi Germany - they are so odious they must be wiped out. The only question is whether it will come from the civilized West (Trump and his reformers) or the Soviet Union (Stalin and his reformers). Either way, there is no scenario the end of which as the current Republican power brokers still in power.

The people of Colorado never had a vote . They had a non-binding straw poll that the party correctly determined was a waste of money and time. All the candidates had the same opportunity to influence the process equally at the district and state level . Trump was a no show . So now he whines like a liberal 'Waaaaaa waaaaaaa ....it's not fair '! Is it fair that he did not get a majority in Florida and yet walked away with all the delegates in the 'winner takes all ' format ? This is why real candidates take a year or more to put their organizations in place before they announce.

lol the Dems are worse . Sanders has won the last 7 primaries and has pretty much pulled even in the delegates selected through caucus ,primaries ,and selection beauty contests . Still Evita has such a commanding lead in "super delegates" that Sander's support is pretty much irrelevant . He'll be lucky to be able to make a speech on the convention floor. Barring indictment ,on July 27 ,in Philly ,super delegate Bubba will announce that NY for Evita ;and it will be the NY vote that gives her the nomination. The results of Tuesday's primary won't mean a thing.

The Democrats are not worse. The Super-Delegates declared themselves for Hillary from the beginning. She's not trying to screw Sanders out of states he won.

And Democrat policies are better than Republican policies, so people give the Dems a lot more slack.

Hillary will not be indicted.

Neither is Cruz . He is playing by the rules that were established before the contest began. The difference is that Cruz studied the rules and prepared . He did not begin the race as some impulsive lark . But the real question is ;does this demonstrate Trump's lack of interest in doing the things necessary to run the country ? I believe it does.

The country pisses on your rules.

Nobody cares about the goddamned Republican party rules, which are gerrymandered, jury rigged, changed around at will to suit the whims of the party leaders.

You can take your "rule of 'law'", your rules fetish, and you can exult over foisting Grandpa Munster Cruz on the Republican Party.

But there are bigger rules, like the rule of 5 on the Supreme Court. And the fact that Republicans don't control the balloting process in the general election. You'll get your Cruz, and then you'll get Hillary - and HER rules will govern the day, not Cruz's.

So, do your little Polish cavalry charge into the panzers here and feel very good about pissing around in your little GOP sandbox. Trump will certainly have to be more organized for the general, and the party - people like you - will have to help him.

But nope, you're going to use your ROOLS! to foist Grandpa Munster on us.

And the Executive Orders of Hillary Clinton will be upheld by a 5-4 Democrat Supreme Court, and ram every goddamn rule the Democrats ever wanted right down YOUR throat. And guess what? SHE will have won fair and square too. And the ROOLS of the USA say that what the President orders and the Supreme Court upholds are the rules that will govern YOU.

And y'know what? I'm good with that. Because, you see, I like Trump a lot, but I agree with a great deal of Hillary's economics, and I've always said I don't care about gun control either way.

BUT YOU DO. You HATE Hillary's economics. You call Democrat views "socialist". You call Democrats "gun grabbers" - and you're right about the last part: they ARE. I don't like that a whole lot, but I don't really care either. YOU do.

So you can take your pissant "RULES" and win your little game, and then we'll have that $15 minimum wage, those college loan forgivenesses, those inheritance and wealth taxes and capital gains taxes and general regulatory and tax hikes on the Republican donor class, and you'll have Obamacare turned into single payer, and you'll register your guns or go to jail.

And I'll be happy as a clam, because I either agree with those RULES or I don't care.

So, maybe you'll win your little victory over Trump, maybe. And then your Cruz will get blown out of the water, and with him, every single solitary political firewall the Republicans have built over the past 47 years of GOP control of the Supreme Court.

All gone.

You'll have the rest of your life to repent your little victory dance over your little plaything "rules". Your rules are a noose around your own neck.

Enjoy your Pyrrhic victory while it lasts, because you are just entering a vale of tears that will last until the end of your life.

you like Trump and Hillary because there is very little difference there.

You are ignorant.

Trump: re-establish good relations with Russia, do not resist them in their sphere of influence in return for their not resisting us in ours - join with them in the fight on terror: we police our allies the Saudis, they police their allies the Iranians and Syrians. End the Ukraine crisis, scale American participation in European NATO way back, and require the Europeans to pay the full cost of everything that remains. If they will not, withdraw all US forces from Europe. Make peace with Russia and do not engage in another Cold War.

In Asia, place the economic burden of defending Korea and Japan and Taiwan on the Koreans, Japanese and Taiwanese. Impose tarriffs on China.

In the Americas: build a wall to stop illegal aliens and drug flows. Deport the aliens.

Clinton: a no-fly zone in Syria, expand the Cold War vs. Russia, Israel first in the Middle East, free trade with China, keep the US fully engaged in NATO and Asia, at American expense; no wall, no enforcement, no tarriffs.

In short, Clinton and Trump are polar opposites on foreign policy.

Your statement that there is "very little difference between them" is ignorant. However, there IS very, very little foreign policy difference between Hillary and Cruz. They agree on Russia, on Asia, on trade.

No he won't.

Trump will make himself POTUS, if he can. If he's the nominee, he'll beat her like a drum because he's a lot more likable, because his ideas are better, and because the Republicans will come to the realization that if they lose the Presidency, they lose the Supreme Court, and if they lose the Supreme Court, they lose control of the law.

Or the Republicans will block Trump by cheating. Then they will ensure the election of Hillary Clinton and the Democrats, because the Trump voters will vote Democrat as revenge for having been cheated out of their due.

Trump, a Republican Congress and a Republican Supreme Court. Or Hillary, a Democrat Senate (at least) and a Democrat Supreme Court. Or Bernie, a Democrat Senate (at least) and a Democrat Supreme Court.

Those are your choices, like it or not.

To you, maybe - his negatives have been consistently higher than Clinton's.

Clinton isn't the issue: she's not running for the GOP nomination. Cruz is.

The GOP may cheat Trump out of the nomination and foist off Cruz on the party. Indeed, that's what I gather you want.

If you get what you wish for, the next thing you will see is Cruz spiral down the toilet, overwhelmingly rejected by the American people. The people who haven't voted in years, or who never before voted Republican, will go home or vote Democrat in revenge, and you'll lose Congress for good measure.

Hillary will start with a mandate and command of all three branches of government (not that Republican control of Congress has made any difference whatever), and the Democrats have already nuked the filibuster in the Senate, so at long last we will have untrammeled one party rule, something we have not seen since FDR.

And Hillary Clinton will hold the reins of power.

Your ilk will try to blame Donald Trump and his voters, but nobody will be listening. And things you hold dear, which Trump WOULD HAVE protected, will be washed away forever, because you decided to go on a kamikaze jihad against your own side.

For my part, I won't be unhappy with Democrat rule. I'll be happier with Trump rule, and you would be too - more, at least, than you will be with the alternate. But the Republican Establishment types are hellbent on Pickett's Charge. So, charge away, into the guns, and go down, and doom your Cause forever and ever. The South never rose again, and neither will the Republican Party.

I'll bring the popcorn and watch.

Sure she is - you claimed "he'll [Trump] beat her like a drum because he's a lot more likable." As I said, his negatives have been consistently higher than Clinton's.
