IT’S OFFICIAL=> Ted Cruz Is Mathematically ELIMINATED from GOP Race – With Chart
The Gateway Pundit ^ | April 26th, 2016 | Guest post by Joe Hoft

Posted on 04/26/2016 8:52:25 PM PDT by Mariner

As we predicted on April 2nd….

As of today, April 26, 2016, Ted Cruz is mathematically eliminated from winning the Republican nomination outright.

On April 2nd we predicted that Donald Trump would have 953 delegates as of today (needing only 284 delegates for the nomination) and that Cruz would have 550 delegates as of today (needing 687 to win the nomination).

We also predicted that only 634 delegates would remain and therefore Cruz would need more delegates than would be available.

Ted Cruz is eliminated.

It is clear that Cruz was eliminated tonight.

After winning all five primaries tonight — Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania — Donald Trump has 949 delegates so far.

Ted Cruz finished third in Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware and Rhode Island.

Mr. Cruz won’t do that. He’s up to his neck in insiders and the well connecTED who were bringing in cash in trucks. He’s going to be their stooge and do what he’s told. Cruz stays in as long the D.C. insiders believe there is still glimmer of hope to swindle the election from it’s own citizens.

Outside of doing anything criminal, I think the jig is up for them and Cruz.

Is he mathematically eliminated in non-Euclidean universes or just Euclidean ones?

He can still win, but must be travelling faster than the speed of light from now on.

A decent and honorable man would withdraw and support the Republican Nominee.

But not Cruz or Kasich.

Eliminated from the quantum universe the moment he thought about running.

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... = -1/12

That's wrong.
The "average of the two" (0 and 1 = ½, for S1) is wrong, you cannot do so because the function is not continuous. (The rule they're using only works for continuous functions.)

Secondly, the S2 is not proven, both because it relies on the fraudulent S1 and because the "shifted form" is not proven to be equal to the actual series (1-2+3-4+5-6...) as it could be noted that the negative n is one less than the next n, this would make the series 1+1+1+1+1...

Thirdly, the S that is "solved for" depends on both S1 & S2 which, as we've seen, cannot be concluded are as asserted.

Cruz called a Hoop a ring tonight in Indiana


Claims Hoosiers is a favorite movie. Doesn’t know what a basketball hoop is. What a phony Rafael “Ted” Cruz is.

Ted Cruz finished third in Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware and Rhode Island.

That's just a devastating reality for Cruz, when one couples it with the fact of his defeat throughout the South.

It's very hard to envision Ted Cruz as a national candidate capable of beating Hillary Clinton at this point.

That's why Ted Cruz's dreams of some kind of magical carpet ride into a contested convention nomination are pure fantasy, and, worse, represent a grave danger to the party;s chances in November, should such a dubious venture be undertaken.

Vote Trump

Congratulations! All of you Trumpsters have effectively ensured a progressive Socialist in the White House, a compliant House and a rubber stamp Supreme Court. I predict the Constitution, or what is left of it, will be a quaint relic in 50 years. Your children and grandchildren will be so proud of you.

Let the intelligent, non-threatening replies to my post begin....You can’t hurt me any more than the hurt I already feel for what has happened to this once great county.

I’ll be sitting on the beach with a pole in one hand and a beer in the other, I’m done fighting

That leaves out Cruz, he is neither honorable, or decent. He’s an admitted establishment toady who is in the race to ensure that the establishment retains control of the party.

Cruz can be eliminated over-and-over because finishing third makes him a fully polished turd.
Thus he will lie in the bottom of the bowl twisting & flexing his turd-place muscles, stubbornly refusing to be flushed by your government-mandated lo flo terlet, even by flushing over-and-over again.
A third place turd as big, slippery and stubborn as Felito will have to be plunged.
And not with one of those $2.99 red rubber plungers with a wooden handle either.

To finally eliminate this tough, ever hopeful Texan-Cubanadian turd, we’re talking the $9.99 de luxe model ‘The Dominator’ with a handle, accordion bellows and with the optional virgin rubber flange, like they use in the Space Shuttle that could blow your wife off the porcelain throne in the other bathroom.

Trump won every county in all 5 states tonight. I am very happy. But Trump has done so well that it is really not even fun to argue with Cruz people any more. What is the point? Cruz is done. I actually got in a fight with someone who I guess is now a Trump supporter.

So at this point we have to try and be nice to Cruz supporters so they will hopefully show up and vote in the general election. While we are trying to be nice, they continue to spout out unrealistic BS. Victory is not always as much fun as it is suppose to be.
