Trump channels inner spoiled brat over delegate count

Political Cartoons by Jerry Holbert

NJ.com   Via Lucianne   "Donald Trump will be happy to learn that the rules in New Jersey are simple: If he wins the primary here, he gets all the delegates.
It gets more complicated in other states. Some give extra weight to party regulars, some to voters willing to endure a caucus process, and some have complex hybrids.
"One thing is beyond dispute: The Supreme Court has ruled unanimously that state parties can draft their own rules. They are like private clubs. The Constitution says nothing about how they should run their internal affairs.
"The Donald apparently didn't know that. And now he's banging a spoon on his high chair, whining that he's been robbed.
" 'The system is rigged," he said on Monday. "It's crooked."
"New Jersey's rules strike us as more fair. But if other states want to give added weight to party regulars, or to those willing to caucus process, or to sitting members of Congress, that's their business." . . .
