Trump's Dirty War Losing Steam: CRUZ Leads Fresh WI Poll -and Now Within 3 Points Nationally

And Trump's surely helping the cause, with unhinged cheap-shot attacks on Heidi Cruz- when this woman is 10,000x times more impressive than unintelligible prop Melania Trump will ever be...

Alas, the pattern is well-established: Trump comes up with some dubious excuse to orchestrate a character assassination (that's already been elaborately planned), goes into a two day twitter frenzy disingenuously playing the victim in a crudely staged scene that's a mirror-image of the one the master projectionist is actually about to spring upon his latest mark.

Then when Trump shifts into attack-mode, Drudge, Breitbart, paid bloggers and twitter trolls spread the false narrative/finish them off if they're still moving.

After this latest gutter-offensive, how any woman could vote for The Donald is beyond me... seems to have a bizarre love/hate relationship with females, 
to say the least.  

It's been truly unsettling to see Trump just nod his head in somebody's direction -like Carlo Gambino- and loyal thugs promptly go after them, 
be it online or at his monster-truck-style rallies. 

And the Orwellian propaganda generated against Ted Cruz blows my mind-- so sad to watch millions of Americans join-in the utterly dishonest trashing of this good man and all he stands for in service to some would-be 
post-constitutionalist dictator. 

Who knows how many paid trolls he's got out there spreading his noxious slander -there's obviously an organized online offensive- but the last couple months social media and news/blog comments sections have been a cesspool to behold, like dirty campaigning gone nuclear- and we've all got Trump to thank for it. 

I pray there's really not that many actual people out there who believe whatever tripe Dear Leader spoons them, and I will say over half the Trumpsters who come after me on twitter appear to be fake accounts, supported by teams of other fake accounts. With all the smear tactics, it seems Trump has combined Organizing for America with KGB disinformation techniques-- and it worked, for a while.

But are we really this screwed-up from the last eight years that we don't think there's anything wrong in the way Trump 'campaigns'... and that the answer is our own nominally 'conservative' Obama who also talks out both sides of his mouth... and runs like a scorched-Earth Alinskyite with a rabid twitter army?

Perhaps not: there is reason to consider Arizona a lagging indicator, with all that early voting for Trump (and Rubio) not truly reflecting the public's growing disaffection for the current GOP frontrunner. 

After Trump received an ass-whooping in Utah, a fresh poll suggests that the Tang-toned tyrant's schtick is also rapidly wearing thin in winner-take-all Wisconsin:

In a statewide Emerson College poll released today, Texas Senator Ted Cruz is not only leading Trump 36% to 35% in the upcoming primary, but Cruz is only trailing Hillary Clinton by one point in a hypothetical general election matchup, 46% to 45%.

In contrast, Trump is trailing both Clinton and her Democratic rival, Bernie Sanders, by the same 9-point margin of 47% to 38% in a potential general election match-up.

In addition, a new Fox News poll has Cruz virtually tied with Trump nationally,

within the margin-for-error... how bout that:

Push poll from Murdoch, Rinse Repeat and fail.

[House Atreides]

In before the paid (and unpaid) trolls turn this thread into another cesspool. Good article,

[9YearLurker]

And yet most polls still have Trump with a double digit lead, winning most remaining states.

[Sacajaweau]

Melania speaks 5 languages.

Heidi speaks money.

[Sybeck1]

Don’t tell me we could still end up with the preachy condescending lawyer?

[VanDeKoik]

Never seen one of these articles before.

This must be the 14th time it was the end of Trump, or the Trump ceiling.

[V K Lee]

For those who plan on voting for Cruz, you best check out this post

How isn’t this article not a troll?

The author of it posted it here. His blog is highly biased in favor of Cruz, and he omits anything that contradicts his premise, even couching Arizona as a “lagging indicator” of the great universal hate of Trump....because it simply didn’t fit his narrative.

Frankly it’s just flamebait and blog pimping.

[Alas Babylon!]

Uh... Went to link, saw the following:

Trump’s dirty war? Really? Who’s been spending tens of millions on sleazy ads in every state? More like Mitt’s dirty war.

[austinaero]

“And Trump’s surely helping the cause, with unhinged cheap-shot attacks on Heidi Cruz- when this woman is 10,000x times more impressive than unintelligible prop Melania Trump will ever be...”

Complaining of “cheap shot attacks” while smearing Trump’s wife in the same sentence.

Oh the irony.

You’re not a bit like Reagan, but you love to use his name I guess.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Jeb endorses Cruz and ‘shazam’!

New exciting poll at odds with other recent polls.

A ‘slut war’ Team Cruz waged on Trump. Trump responds with a vague threat that is nowhere close, but Trump’s now the villain? BS.

Good spin but BS.

They need to justify the massive poll ‘shift’.

Smoke and mirrors.

Usual Establishment tactics. And Rush Limbaugh will most likely swallow it whole and probably even read his brother’s slander piece word for word with reverence.

[Kudsman]

The source, author and poster are all named the same. What a coincidence. Or someone wants to feel weely impotent. Didn’t these used to be called “vanities”?

[Helicondelta]

ROFL. Cruz will lose Wisconsin. It won’t even be close.

And national polls are meaningless when most of the states have already voted.

Cruz is done. He is nothing more than an establishment puppet. He will be discarded soon.

[trebb]

Please don’t go all pathetic - more slime has been directed at Trump than has come from him and it is abetted by the man who is playing cats paw to the GOPe by staying around as a spoiler instead of a real chance. You know, the guy who Mitt and Jeb suddenly love as they try to “help” him do the GOPe’s work and get Hillary elected.

[Solson]

You guys really are delusional. Cruz has been the dirtiest campaigner of ALL GOP candidates. And the one national poll is an outlier.

Cruz continues to lose support with everyone but the establishment. Congratulations. Now Romney's cheapshot on Melania along with Cruz campaign ties to Liz Mair are problematic.

[VanDeKoik]

I didnt even see that part.

I’ve been seeing multiple posts from Cruz people taking sleazy digs at this person the past few days. One nutcase was even saying that because she was born in the former Yugoslavia, that she was a spying risk. Another even said he would hate to see a first lady without a REAL American accent.

And now calling her an “unintelligible prop”?

The hell is wrong with these people? I could have sworn they were supposed to be super Christians...or at least that’s what they call themselves.

[Kudsman]

Yeah I need to find a new afternoon program. Growing tired of the big voice. It’s tough to just jettison something that’s been a staple for a couple decades. Any suggestions?
