I guess Trump finally figured out that insulting every last one of his competitors is not the best way to get their delegates to support him.

As an example do you think Trumps 48 delegates in Texas are going to stay with him after they are cleared on the third ballot? What about the 50 from South Carolina, that Nikki Haley is coming up with? I have a very good idea where the Iowa delegates will go after the first ballot.

I guess Mr. Greatest Negotiator in the World should have read the rules a little more closely.

OK, that is an "inside baseball" vantage point. He gains the massive amount of voters
because he is not engaged in an "inside baseball" game, like all the rest are, even those
supposed "outsiders" who are not outside at all. He calls it straight - voters respond
to this - no gamesmanship.

Much better to use St. Ted's method...eliminate the middle man, insult the voters yourself.

Yep, and shut his mouth a little more often.

You have it all wrong. This is part of his master plan to win the nomination. He’s going to make it look impossible and then his magical deal making abilities will be on full display. We will all be wowed that he was able to get all those people he pissed on for months to back him at a contested convention. Then we’ll get a taste of how he’s going to get Mexico to pay for the wall and China to change their trade practices. He’s an amazing man and this is his time to showcase his talents. I’m just surprised he hasn’t bragged about this yet.
