Moving on up, right into the white house

Or is the White House a downgrade from Trump Tower?

Trump may pay for new construction to add onto the White House. :-)

Cruz would normally much higher in the polls but he is too tired pursuing the Bang of 8!

The Trump Tower addition?

Complete with gold lettering, glass and a gaming casino?

Trump is only favorable by 36% of voters polled but 49% are voting for him. Apparently, some don’t like him but want him to win. Reminds me of Nixon.

Many people are put off by a New York personality which is brash and ‘in your face’.

A gaming casino may need COng approval since it may run much afoul of federal red tape. I say build vertical. A nice looking tower with a dungeon for Dems.

As others have posted, many of us are not looking for somebody we like but somebody who can do the job. I thought the person was Cruz but changed my mind for several reasons. It is not because of the NE article but how he reacted to it and his too many lies and his endless whining about “it’s Trump’s fault.” It is embarrassing to listen to him.

This reflects some of the Cruz mistress fiasco.

These times require an alpha male leader who is brash and ‘in your face’.

A polite, Hahvud “master debater” is not what we need to save America from the communists and their fellow leftists who worship satan/allah.

This has been a charade of a primary election. The race is such a lopsided win for Trump that it’s ludicrous to suggest otherwise. We are stuck with a non-winner trying to steal delegates from a winner that’s way out in front on so many levels and issues.

Team Cruz is efficient in weaseling out wins in a few caucus states known for their oddball and malleable vote counting methods.
Cruz won:
Virgin Islands by 30 votes
Wyoming by 480 votes
Alaska by 600 votes
Maine by 2,500.

Here are the rounded total votes Cruz won in his nine winning states.

Wyoming 620 people
Virgin Isl 200 people
Alaska 8,400
Maine 8,500
Kansas 35,000
Iowa 52,000
Utah 122,00
Okie 158,000
He won eight states totaling 385,000 votes.
If it wasn’t for Texas, he’d have a pile of beans.

Ted’s lackluster Texas win, Texas 1,239,393.
Cruz’s winning votes in nine states are 1,724,000.
Cruz won 9 states with 1,724,000 votes

Trump won 21 states, and nearly all the states were won by tens or hundreds of thousands of votes. The millions that have attended his rallies have voted.
Marianas (343 people)
Hawaii 6K
Vermont 20K
Nevada 35K
Kentucky 83K
N. H. 101K
Louisiana 125K
Arkansas 133K
Mississipi 191K
South Car 241K
Arizona 250K
Mass. 311K
Tenn. 333K
Virginia 356K
AlaBama. 372K
Missouri 382K
N. Carol 458K
Michig. 483K
Georgia 503K
Illinois 557K
FLorida 1,079,741

Trump won 21 states with 6,020,000 votes

Cruz’s only way to prevail now is by pure chicanery, just how he began this campaign.

“The Bang of Eight” - LOL!

btw, the Sleazy Lawyer stated the NE story was false.

However, perhaps it’s because the story stated he had “5” mistresses when the actual number was much more.

So technically he could say the NE “5” was false.

Kinda like Clintonian-speak.

Trump will likely put Wisconsin away in the next 8 days with his in-state push. And onto New York on the 19th and several Trump friendly states on the 26th. Bye Cruz bye Kasich. :-)

I pointed out the numbers that show his support exceeds his favorable ratings to show that the argument that he cannot win because of his high unfavorable polls is not a strong argument. Apparently a large percentage of his supporters don’t feel unfavorable to him but are voting for him.

I wonder if their is interview bias. Maybe its hard to say you like Trump when asked by stranger.

I had very liberal relatives in MA who voted for Bush in 2004. They couldn’t stand him but knew their chances of avoiding Islamic attacks were better with him as President.
