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 Cruzs supporter Governor Scott Walker.

Cruz is done. Finished as a candidate
Facts and truth are funny things, you can not have your own.
If Cruz hammers Trump, as all are now predicting, in Wisconsin, Trump will show his ass big time and totally implode as a serious candidate. DONEald.
Contrary to what Trumpbots WISH, threads are often far from factual. But yall keep on with Hopin and Wishin, its working like a charm......
It correctly show Cruz to be a man of integrity.
Ok. Go with that.
They can’t steal what you don’t win. If he wins enough states by enough, he gets the delegates and wins the nomination. If, as it appears will happen, he doesn’t win enough delegates, by the established state rules, he has to battle for them at the convention. It’s been that way since the founding of the party. No one is changing the rules just to help Donald Trump.
The trough will be rebuilt in gleaming glass and chrome, The Fabulous TRUMP TROUGH. Count on it!
So, the Cruz support from the Bushes and GOPe is a fig-newton of our imagination?
I don't think so.
They'll destroy him.
Iowa, that it explains it all.
I bet 90% of the Cruz supporters that remain are from Texas or Iowa.
The FR caucus Cruz support is less than 15%.
And I think this is THE largest most conservative forum in existence.
That right there, speaks for itself.
Thanks for the fireworks earlier : ))
That's an even dumber argument because there's never been a one on one race. As a matter of fact, one could conclude that, in a one on one race, Trump loses every state.
BTW, I think you know where to put your buttercup.
Perhaps that time will come but I think the most likely outcome for now is that there will be a lot of hand wringing and gnashing of teeth that may lead to isolated pockets of violence that the 0bama Gestapo will rapidly put down to allow for a 'peaceful' transfer of power to Hillary.
“I hope in the end 1,237 delegates can be found to support one of these two guys.”

Never mind the text. Just watch the clip.
So, if the Bushes and the GOPe start posting on FR then at that point FR is a GOP establishment website?
Cruz will support Trump if he has 1237. He would be a fool not to.
Anything short of that he will try to undermine and stop Trump, thinking he can get the nomination. However, this is what is so questionable: it is clear Cruz will not in any way shape or form get to 1237. What does that leave him? A brokered convention.
But in such a case, how can he possibly think they would allow him to emerge with the nomination? This is delusion beyond belief.
Actually he has a cogent argument that most of Mr. Trump’s supporters fail to recognize or don’t want to recognize. He did not mention Mr. Cruz in his argument he only stated a fact that Mr. Trump has received, by the RCP count, 37.1% of the popular vote in the primary states thus far.
The way this is shaping up is that we’ll destroy each other and the democrats will walk in over our bloody carcasses.
It’s way too early for you to be drunk.
Ted’s a mess!
Looking forward to you getting the ZOT when Trump is confirmed.
Trump maintains his, or gains slightly.
