    Trump tells a crowd of thousands of enthusiastic supporters gathered in a frigid airport hangar in Rochester, New York on Sunday afternoon that “it’s not right” that the person who wins the most votes may not be the nominee.

    He says he’s doing fine, but if he’s denied the nomination, “you’re going to have a big problem, folks.”

    While Trump has won more states than any of his Republican rivals, it’s possible that he won’t secure the 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination before the summer convention.

    Rival Ted Cruz has been out-maneuvering him at local and state gatherings where delegates are being chosen. Trump recently hired Paul Manafort to craft a strategy to win more delegates.

    If you are Not nominated at the Republican Convention, you can still run and win in Mexico if you spend as much money and effort in that country as much you waisted in the US

    What a big baby. Trump is whining that it’s “not fair” if he doesn’t get the nomination just because he doesn’t get the 1237 delegates needed (50% of the total delegates plus one), which Trump called “an arbitrary number”.

    Paul Ryan will get the nomination, Trump, the big baby, will run as an independent; and the House of Representatives (controlled by the Republicans) will make Ryan the President since none of the candidates will get over 50% of the Electoral College votes.

    The system of elections has been put together so that the average joe can’t have a say in electing a president .The wealthy have seen to it that they never lose control..

    Donald, Isn’t it similar to the bankruptcy system where you’re debts are forgiven and the little guy never collects the money you owe him? You find nothing wrong with that.
