Will they steal the election from Trump?



The majority of republican voters want him as President, but that isn't enough. There are forces at work who are doing everything to stop him being nominated. Why? Even if you detest Trump, this is wrong and shows Democracy is a farce in America. The same can be said with Sanders and the super delegates that benefited Hillary greatly. They are clearly rigging the system so that only people they want in power can be elected.

The man has alienated the latinos, the blacks, the Mormons, the gays, the women, and the list goes on. He has stolen the election from himself, if anything. If the other Republicans don't want him nominated as Republican presidential candidate, I can completely understand that - they want a candidate that stands a chance of winning.

I hope so.
hopefully no one I love trump
Very little about Trump's views are in-line with conservatism. A large base of his electorate is voting for him because they would rather be members of the Republican party than the Democrats but that does not mean they fully agree with the former's views.
'Steal'? He doesn't deserve it! He preaches hatred, and is only helping ISIS by turning everyone against Muslims

The only hatred I see are from the morons protesting at his rallies. They clearly have no respect for the democratic system.

Who are you to call them morons? They are clearly just upset at his evil, hateful rhetoric. What is moronic about that? About not wanting your country to be divided by a new Hitler?

No it can't. Clinton has a fair few more regular delegates than Sanders as well.

He hasn't though. He is vastly more popular than Cruz and he is popular with a lot of those groups.
Well, if that happens, would there be rioting from his base as he says?

And I have no doubt that the RNC will try something at the convention if its brokered, Paul Ryan basically admitted it.

The democratic system is clearly broken when Trump is winning. He's like a parody of himself, he's like ****ing satire, but he's brilliant at manipulating stupid people.

It would be a poor show for democracy if the election was 'stolen' from him - but in the end he's seeking the Republican nomination and if the support of 'ordinary' voters was sufficient then he could always stand as an independent. :/
If it's Trump vs Hillary, he wins easily. He is about the same as her regarding donestic policy. If Bernie wins the nomination, he'll walk it.

How can he win if these groups were against him?

He has to be winning it to have it 'stolen' from him.
