Yes, I do.

Just as you certainly realize Cruz did not insult New Yorkers as a whole, just their corrupt, nanny state values, perpetuated by the scumbags they elect.

hillary schumer rangel deblassio just to name a few.

That was one snotty young protester who would have been beaten to a pulp at a Trump rally.

I can’t believe Fox news overplayed that like they did.

If you want a good analysis of the likely delegate count, Breitbart has an excellent long column giving state by state probable totals for the candidates.

Did you ever serve with any New Yorkers'? Did you serve at all?

They were as tough as any Texan I had the honor of serving with.

It was never about where you came from, but the mettle that is within.

In the Army, we just called each other brothers, Americans.

I don't think he meant to insult all New Yorkers, but what he said was a poorly worded way of expressing what he meant. If he had said, "Trump is a liberal, and comes from a state that tends to vote liberal", it wouldn't be worse than most things he says. But he say New York Values, and that is an attack on New Yorkers. Not smart, regardless of the spin you want to put on it. Trump is smart to highlight that in the NY primary.

But you are deflecting like the good little shill you are. You said that Trump insulted Texans just like Cruz did NYers. I asked you the basis for saying that. You can't provide it, because it didn't happen. Trump has been gracious to every state that he lost. He knows that he had lots of support in those states, even if someone else got more. He'll be back for those votes in the general. Cruz will be fielding divorce papers.

I shouldn’t post to a mob ... it can be dangerous.

But, as you know, Breitbart has been totally for Trump.

However, their recent analysis of the results to come for Trump and Cruz show that Trump will be well short of the majority.

I’m going to print it out as it tells how each state’s delegates are allotted. Very informative.

Trump cannot make it and it’s his own fault.

Yeah, sure, it's Trump's fault that the establishment that he is seeking to supplant has sent every resource available to it, media pundit, talk show host, blogger, politician, internet shills, out devoted to one thing: destroy Trump. It's Trump's fault that the establishment has betrayed its voters time and time again, and they are not going to take it this time. It's Trump's fault that, with trillions at stake, everyone in the country except Americans who love their country is arrayed against Trump.

It is Trump's fault that after candidate were eliminated mathematically (Kasich) or for all practical purposes (Felito) they nonetheless stayed in the race. Not to win, but to DENY a win to the leader. That has never happened before. The reason why the nominee has a cakewalk through the last part of the primaries is that after it shakes out, and only one guy has a realistic chance of winning, the ones without a chance drop out, and the party comes together. It's Trump's fault the ones controlling the trillions won't do that this time.

In spite of all that, Trump has a substantial lead over the second place also ran, who will not win another state. He does in fact have a pathway to victory, but it is much more narrow now, thanks to Kasich in Ohio and Cruz in Wisconsin and Utah. He could use a majority in NY, big wins in the Northeast and then, with Cruz mathematically eliminated and reeling from all the losses, a big win in California. That could put him over the top. Worst case, he is close, and 400 or more ahead of Cruz heading into the convention. Cruz won't get it, but the GOPe will be very grateful. So grateful, they will run a challenger in his Senate primary in 2018. You watch.

How much does shillin' pay these days? I could use some extra dough. I'll post the dumb stuff you do for a little cash, just so long as I get to rebut it, too.

Expert: has-been drip under pressure.
Scared huh? You should be.
On April 20th even those like yourself will be asking (yourselves), “OK, it’s mathematically impossible for Cruz to win now. So why is he vowing to ‘Keep fighting the good fight!’”

I’ve got your answer: it’s because he’s so gullible he really believes his new GOP pals when they say, “Oh no, Ted—we won’t throw you under the bus.”

This just came out: Party Unity

It explains very well the point I was making, that Trump is not causing anything, the forces aligned against him, and America, are what are keeping him from doing better. There are those who are against him out of desire to keep the uniparty in business, and then there are the useful idiots, who think they are working for Cruz, but who really are working for the uniparty.

From the article:

Who would have thought back in 2008 or even 2012 that a future Republican Party would resemble the left in Alinsky tactics against its own? "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it" has begun to take its toll on Donald Trump and his millions of supporters on the right.

Don't be a useful idiot. Be a useful American.

I pretty much hate Cruz at this point, but the ferals who bleated that “[the Bronx] is an immigrant community” are a menace to society.

Indeed. See how they abused their fellow immigrant Ted Cruz.

teddy Uniparty says, “My handlers and owners told me to slam New York values. So I did. And all I got was a measly Iowa win. Ever since then, I’ve lost the South, and I’ll be last in New York. But I know I’m owned, so I’ll stop whining about my owners now.”

Poor cruzniparty tedstablishment.

The New Yorkers are proving Cruz’ point.

“Trump is the ONLY GUY OUT THERE who gets it.”

And if he wins the nomination he becomes a creature of the GOPe.

Nonsense. He insulted the Bronx borough and NYC, then came to them begging for votes and money.
That’s not “proving” anything. Cruz’s attempt at demagoguing “Nyoo Yawk City!” in the south didn’t help him. He lost.
Now he’s facing the consequences: human nature. Most Americans would resent being told by this unctuous, philandering preacher that they have poor values.
