Donald Trump: Delegate System is “Rigged”

HeadlineApr 12, 2016

Donald Trump campaigned in Rochester, New York, Monday after Texas Senator Ted Cruz won all of Colorado’s 34 delegates over the weekend. Trump said the system is rigged.

Donald Trump: “We’ve got a corrupt system. It’s not right. We’re supposed to be a democracy. We’re supposed to be—we’re supposed to be: You vote, and the vote means something. All right? You vote, and the vote means something. … Because what they’re doing, and whether it’s me or whether it’s Bernie Sanders, when I look at it and I see all these victories that I have, all these victories that he’s got, and then you look at the establishment, and I want to tell you, it’s a corrupt deal going on in this country, and it’s not good. It’s not good.”
