Ignoring the Obvious

Everybody seems to be ignoring the obvious in their quest to get Donald Trump out of the presidential race. Even the editorial cartoonists seem to be “on board” in this effort. Even a cartoonist I thought was better than that has joined the game with his latest cartoon depicting Trump reading a book about “The Art of Complaining About Getting A Raw Deal.” Meanwhile, they ignore the obvious, that he DID “get a raw deal.” He has been getting a raw deal, right along, culminating in “losing” Colorado to Ted Cruz without a single vote of the PEOPLE being cast, or counted. That IS a “raw deal,” and he's ENTITLED to complain. Never mind they knew all along it would be done this way, it's STILL wrong. Screwing somebody publicly is still screwing somebody, and if the “screwee” doesn't want to be screwed, he has a RIGHT to complain, and something should be done about his complaint. The obvious thing that's being ignored is disenfranchising every citizen living inn Colorado, and I'm one of them. They not only screwed Trump, they screwed US, too. And WE'RE complaining.
