For All Those Saying Trump Has Majority Support, Here's A Stunning Fact
Daily Wire ^ | 3/25/2016 | Hank Berrien

Posted on 03/26/2016 7:56:52 AM PDT by conservativejoy

Donald Trump has not won a majority of the vote in any state he's won. Ted Cruz has done it twice, in Wyoming and Utah.

Trump's enormous unpopularity with the majority of voters is a telling indicator that he simply cannot win a general election. With his constant attacks on women, whether they be Megyn Kelly, Carly Fiorina, or Heidi Cruz, Trump's paltry appeal among women cripples him even further.

As expert mathematician Nate Silver pointed out on Friday, if women sour on Trump, the results of his efforts in the general election would look like this:

For all of Trump's talk of winning; he only has won consistently when he was facing a plethora of candidates. In one on one matchups with Ted Cruz or Hillary Clinton, polls show he loses.

Silver also offered a projection of how one-sided a prospective Hillary Clinton-Trump matchup would be, asserting Clinton would win 374 electoral votes and Trump would win 164.

Trump will need a 3rd party candidate to win the general. A liberal Republican will take vote from GOPe and Democrats.

Cruz/s debate comments about regrowing an unfaithful woman/s hymen are not exactly going to win over women.

In one early Harvard debate, St Ted proposed a method to detect infidelity in which God should “give women a hymen that grows back every time she has intercourse with a different guy, because that will be a ‘visible sign’ of the breach of trust”. (recollection by David Kennedy published in a Harvard debate team reunion booklet in 2001)

Time for the neocons to leave the GOP or become worthless gutter rats who want Marxism as their true faith. Bye, bye fools.

Donald Trump has not won a majority of the vote in any state he's won. Ted Cruz has done it twice, in Wyoming and Utah.

But, but, Donald won a MAJORITY of the votes in the Northern Mariana Islands! As go the Northern Mariana Islands, so goes America, that's what I always say.

Trump's enormous unpopularity with the majority of voters is a telling indicator that he simply cannot win a general election.

In 2012 Nate Silver called all 50 states correctly. Yes, he is a Lib but his track record is among the best if not the best.

Of course The Trump True Believers will his dismiss his views.

I won’t.

None of these “consider the facts” posts make any sense to me. The people who don’t support Trump have been singing the same song since he started winning primaries: Look how many people hate Trump!

And yet, he keeps winning. And his “ceiling” has been broken time and time again.

Bottom line is that aside from his home state, where he won with a pretty crappy showing, Ted Cruz seems to do best in oddball closed caucus states where a few hundred thousand or less people participate. My guess is this is because people go to their church and all agree that Trump is a “short-fingered vulgarian” and not Christian enough or whatever, and the peer pressure does its job to get Ted “Creflo Dollar” Cruz the votes.

Utah and Wyoming???

Utah was a typical Cruz win - ballot stuffing caucus in Romneyville.

cheaTed is behind over 2 million votes.

The straws you keep grasping at are getting more distant....

Well, mathematically, that's not surprising. There have been more Republicans in the field than Democrats, as far as I know, so Hilary and Bernie are splitting the vote two ways, whereas our candidates have been splitting it 3 and 4 ways.

I mean, if there are other viable Democratic candidates, I haven't heard much about them.

I have seen no evidence of anything other than that Trump’s good buddy David Pecker has reported rumors in his tabloid rag. He has not reported this as anything but rumor because he doesn’t want to get sued.

What I find amusing is that Trump supporters are salivating into their keyboards over this, when there is no evidence that any of it is true. On the other hand, Trump has bragged about his adulterous affairs. I don’t have any doubt that he has cheated on Melania. In fact, when he loses this election, she might as well pack her bags because Donald is going to have to have a new trophy wife to assuage his battered ego.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different results.
Electing another ivy league lawyer and expecting a different results from somebody who did not finish his first term is INSANE.
