On the heels of a Marquette University poll showing Sen. Ted Cruz taking a 10-point lead in Wisconsin, Donald Trump once again whined on Wednesday that the “establishment” is trying to take the nomination away from him, citing the Louisiana delegate allocation which gave Cruz more delegates even though Trump got more votes. as Exhibit A. As Breitbart News reported:
With less than a week to go until the Wisconsin primary, Trump came out swinging -- against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), against the Establishment lining up behind Cruz in order to keep Trump below 1,237 delegates so they can broker it in Cleveland, and against Cruz’s supporter Governor Scott Walker.

That’s what populism is all about...manipulation.
...”Cruz and Kasich are on the same team when it comes to stopping Trump, the only reason they are still in the race”....
Wrong...though it’s what Trumpsters put out there. If there’s any way or chance for either to “win” this they are in it for the win. Convention affords them that opportunity and one they aren’t about to simply hand to Trump because he wants it.....
Trump STILL does not have the Delegates.... and that’s the goal. If none get it...on to the convention. That’s the game....that’s just how it is.
...”That’s what populism is all about...manipulation”....
Sure is...nothing Trump projects to his followers is any part of Trumps foundation because he does not have one....he can’t...his form of Narcissicm doesn’t allow for self-reflection.
There are no win-win situations for Trump...it’s all winner or looser.... That’s why he trots out he and his supporters have to be “flexible” which affords him the excuses he does or says....and they’re riding that with him in response. Facts don’t matter....he’s webbed them in so tightly they no longer can discern right, wrong or the danger in this man.
Will you accept neither Trump nor Cruz not receiving the nomination as "just how it is?" Because that is what will happen at a contested convention.
We aren’t there yet for a decision.....but most likely I will vote for whoever the winner is because I do not want all the loses which would surely be if Hillary wins.
And yes that is just how it is.
The GOPe favors amnesty and increased legal immigration. It will not only destroy the country, it will make the Dems the permanent majority party.
Actually, the MU poll indicates Cruz would win 6 CD’s and the state overall. Per the poll, Kasich wins CD2 and Trump wins CD3.
Well if you believe that then vote for Cruz......who has been fighting both sides of the aisle.......
BS. Cruz has been a Johnny come lately to the immigration issue, something I have worked over nine years on lobbying on the Hill as part of a grassroots immigration group. I don’t trust him.
BIngo.
Trump is right and this author has his head...in the sand.
Trump is subjected to attacks 24/7/365 by the democrats, by the republicans (his supposed friends), by broadcasters, by print media, by talk radio, and by foreign governments.
To me that adds up to ‘the establishment’ really is out to get him.
