This scandal you speak of only exists in the fever swamp of your mind. There is no evidence of a scandal other than the innuendo you so desperately want everyone to believe is fact. Like Trump, you underestimate the intelligence of the electorate. If Trump is everything you claim he is, then he shouldn't have any trouble winning the nomination. Then I will support him.
You heap scorn on Cruz for staying in, when he has a path to the nomination, but say nothing about the democrat running as a republican who has absolutely no chance of winning. Interesting.
I suppose you would have been telling Reagan to drop out in '76 since he was keeping Ford from gaining enough delegates to win prior to the convention.
Now you guys are already trying to blame Ted for Trump's inevitable loss to Clinton. What happened to the candidate who was going to roll through the primaries and win 40 states? Not so sure anymore, are ya?
If the GOP nominates someone other than the Trump or Cruz, it will be the end of the Republican Party. You believe everything you're told, but I don't think for a minute that the party is going to commit suicide over either one of these candidates. But you believe what you want. Hell, you already believe Trump is a conservative.....so you'll believe just about anything.
It’s not just twisted. It’s the stuff of Twilight Zone time. Looking around the net at the comments being made for Trump and against Cruz and Cruz supporters, I’m finding it hard to believe, even when seeing and witnessing it with my own eyes.
Trump is ahead and he's the only candidate with a credible path to the nomination on the first ballot. Cruz is trying to stop Trump but his chances aren't good. He's not going to be handed the nomination by the GOPe. They will use him to keep Trump below a majority if they can then throw him under the bus.
This, by the way, is a less critical theory about Cruz than what I'm hearing from most Trump supporters, who seem to think Cruz is part of a GOPe conspiracy. I think he's just unrealistic about his ability to deal with the GOPe once they've got what they want out of him.
When, not if, Cruz fails to be nominated or chosen as VP his followers will walk away, just as Trump's will if the GOPe nominates some chump. The best way to avoid this is a Trump-Cruz alliance but neither will check their ego and make the deal.
Good news is Trump can probably win even if Cruz sticks around and then crush Hillary in the general.
