Another disgusted Trump supporter Larry Wayne Lindsey from Douglas County had his name removed from the ballot. He posted this video after he was scratched from the ballot without his knowledge after driving to Colorado Springs for the convention.
The Cruz camp and GOP establishment leaders strong-armed their way to a sweep by banning Trump delegates and omitting them from the ballots… and listing Cruz delegates TWICE!
“I’ve been a lifelong Republican all of my life. And this corrupt bunch of thieves is not even worth fighting for. I’ll find another party that believes more like I do. I’ve had it with them. But Jan Morgan you’re not going to get away with this. I’ll find somebody to listen to me. I’ll find someway to hold you accountable for this.”

The guy in that video at the bottom of your post needs to belong to a third party called The Tea Party.
We'd probably have had that as a real choice this election cycle ... if not for Lois Lerner and the IRS.
After firing the organizer initially put in charge of Colorado last week, Trump’s team hired Patrick Davis, a GOP operative from Colorado Springs, to put together a slate in an effort to win some of the delegate slots to be elected by just fewer than 4,000 party activists at Saturday’s assembly. Heading in, Cruz had already swept the seven assemblies held in the state’s congressional districts, each of which elect three delegates, giving him 21 of Colorado’s 34 elected delegates – a majority – before ballots hit the floor at the state convention. "We have beaten Donald Trump," Cruz told supporters packed into the World Arena. Trump’s last-minute organizing effort did not go well. The leaflet his campaign handed out listed a slate of 26 delegates. But in many cases the numbers indicating their ballot position — more than 600 delegates are running for 13 slots — were off, meaning that Trump’s team was mistakenly directing votes toward other candidates’ delegates.

There is a lot more to this story than is being told.

They are claiming it was fraud and trying to blame it on Cruz, but it appears that Trump hired the wrong people and they couldn't even produce the right literature to ensure his delegates were voting for the right people.
This is an epic facepalm moment for the Trump campaign.
Well... we wanted a NON-POLITICIAN. An OUTSIDER. We got it! Go Trump Go! You're just what we've asked for! -cwm

Being an "outsider" or a "non-politician" is no excuse for ignorance, nor is it an excuse to cry conspiracy and point fingers at others.
Trump's camp is trying to blame someone else for their screw-up. A screw-up that happened because Trump can't hire people to do something elementary.
