***PING***
I concur trumps fraud will finally get stopped.
My concern is what the party will do. Foisting a Romney or Ryan would be a disaster worse than even Trump.
Why do you like Cruz so much? I know. He's a man of principle who's willing to stand up to the establishment and fight for the American people with good old conservative principles. He supports the things I support, and is the man to fight the establishment cartel in Washington.
Did I get that pretty much right?
Now the hard conversation part. Why does the establishment suddenly "like" you? Why are people who you've sworn to fight, suddenly endorsing you? Is it because you think you've "won" them over on principle? Do you really believe that you can trust the establishment you've been "fighting" since you've been in office? Do you really think they're going to hand the nomination to you on the second vote at the convention?
Wake up.
Trump is the future of the Republican party.
Blah, blah, blah.
The Trump-bashing is getting a bit excessive around here.
Just saying.
The Cruz campaign already may a $.5M downpayment for iCarly, so why not. The Goldman Sachs sponsored globalist and his running mate; the most destructive manager in HPs history. They have all the charisma of boiled clams. Perfect.
What we are seeing here is a case of “Trump fatigue” setting in. The novelty has worn off and the media and GOPe have doubled down on discrediting him at every turn. I don’t know if he’s capable of turning this around at this point.
Ted Cruz has barely won half the delegates he needs so far to get to 1,237. He needs to win over 80% of the remaining delegates in a 3 man race. Not going to happen. http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/election-2016/delegate-targets/
The Donald mostly trades on an air of inevitability (was never true, but the co-opted ‘conservative’ media is certainly still pushing that faded narrative), so just watch and see how he does once Ted Cruz exposes Trump’s true electoral mediocrity.

Eric Bolling, Geraldo and Hannity on Fox News have become unbearable to watch because they are so deep in the tank for Trump. ....Geraldo has always been unbearable to watch!
If we do not secure our borders and deport those here illegally we will not have a country. It is really that simple. Vote for Trump or hand the country over to the anti-American globalists that wish to create a socialist utopia. Your choice.
BTW a socialist utopia is only a utopia the 1%, the rest of us are peasants. Just image North America as one big Mexico.
The Marquette poll is only Republican likely voters.
Wisconsin is an Open primary state - which means that Democrats and independents can vote in the Republican primary. Trump has lots of Blue Collar Democrat Union supporters and independents and Wisconsin has many union workers.
Cruz may be ahead of Trump, but it is a lot closer than the 10 point spread this poll suggests.
A more accurate poll would be of everyone who is likely to vote in the Republican presidential primary, not just Republicans!!!
Once the establishment's objectives are met, he will be cast aside.
If Rafael somehow is awarded the nomination, he will be destroyed by Hillary and Obama over his eligibility, and simultaneously double-crossed by the very Republican establishment that is now using him like Kleenex.
As for the polling in WI, it's very specious and relies on small samples of unlikely voters.
Trump also forced Cruz to defend abortion, and by attacking Walker he is going to get crossover Dem and Bernie Sander voters.
Walker is not the same as he was in 2011 and his endorsement is a non-factor in this primary.
Al the propaganda in the world can’t overcome the mathematics of the situation
Delegates
1237 needed for nomination
943 still available
Trump
736 won
501 needed (53% of remaining delegates)
Cruz
463 won
774 needed (82% of remaining delegates)
IOW, to maintain credibility, one must actually use the available facts instead of propagandizing their inputs by omitting some salient datum.
Just like the "women dislike Trump" polls also ignore that along with having the highest rate of dislike, he also enjoys the highest rate of "would be willing to support/vote for him".
Has FR become some "pundit's" latest Forum for disseminating false memes in the hope of attaining a lost cause by elevating Cruz, despite his lapses from "rock-solid-conservatism" and even pandering to the pro-abortion crowd to try to leverage a sane statement by Trump (if one believes abortion is murder)?
Funny how like Cruz many here have become by practicing what they have decried for so long - sad, actually...
I am a Trump supporter, but I am fairly certain that he will lose in Wisconsin.
Discussed as fraud yesterday.
Was that here on FR?
You guys are delusional.
Many though that since Paul Ryan was from Wisconsin that they might have a chance, but on election night the Republicans lost by around a seven-point margin. This was able to keep Wisconsin a Democratic state. Wisconsin has now not gone for a Republican since 1984.
