'Ja Kommandant. Ve are Vinning!'

The bottom is dropping out for Donald Trump.
While Trump was never popular outside of his loyal slice of GOP voters, a raft of new polls show his national position hitting new lows, including with groups that are supposed to form his base.
America's widespread loathing for Trump puts further pressure on Republican delegates to deny him the nomination in July if he falls short of a majority, a move that would set off an ugly civil war but that some in the party believe would be necessary to stave off generational damage.
A collection of recent surveys by Real Clear Politics finds, on average, 30 percent of respondents hold a favorable view of Trump versus 63 percent who hold a negative one. Those numbers are roughly parallel to former President George W. Bush's approval ratings during his final months in office, which set the stage for President Barack Obama's landslide victory.
Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton leads Trump by double digits in at least six national polls in March, even as her own favorability ratings appear weak. Using 2008 as a reference point again, Obama's popular vote margin against Sen. John McCain was just more than 7 percent.

You sound a bit twisTED. Hope your day is good. ;-)
He must have thought it was a gaffe because he made a pathetic attempt to walk it back the next day.
He said that women who have an abortion should be punished.
Most people thought that was a bad thing to say and he walked it back.
So who you gonna believe ... Trump or Trump.
For what purpose? Cruz has zero chance of winning the general election.
Na, the GOP is dead, they just don’t know it yet.
TReegards pal. Learn to love it.
'Ja Kommandant. Ve are Vinning!'
No, they wouldn’t waste their time and money on a serious campaign trail against a cruz type candidate.
The DNC will challenge his NBC status in the 50 states and have him DQ.
They will go through some motions and suck up hundreds of millions from donors and never need to spend most the money campaigning.
Ted is the easiest candidate to beat.
The lawyers get rich and the donors money is kept.
Call me when Cruz hits 50% in a state.
“Now Cruz wants his piece of the action... But the Senate will not resolve Cruz to be eligible.”
Wait a sec. You mean to tell me that Goldman Sachs, Jeb Bush and Romney all want Ted Cruz but they will not deem him eligible? And the courts are wrong?
This is Hugh and Series. I am Stuned by this. Beeber? Where’s my Beeber?
I understand you are frustrated.
After many many months of claiming that Trump has the magic tongue now you see him self destruct from a few simple questions.
No, it was just the lame, baseless garden variety personal smear Cruz supporters are so proud of resorting to.
I have heard it before. I hear it everyday on FR with you tRump supporters. You guys are really good at projecting.
Not a bit.
Actually, I’m quite entertained by it all. You trumpettes are interesting.... in a bizarre sort of way.
I guess you missed the call. He got well over 50% in Utah. Unless for some reason you don’t consider Utah a state.
And the Dims STILL haven’t really attacked him.
This will be one of the great election disasters in the history of Conservatism. Makes me ill.
>>>Wisconsin is a microcosm???
of what cheese?
Wisconsin is not representative of anything but itself based on it’s demographics.
Call us when Trump can put together a complete sentence.
After WI, the northeast will go for Trump.
LIkewise....with you cRuzzette’s.
Never have seen so much pretzel and weasel logic.
