“Donald Trump’s awful, no-good night”

A little over the top. Trump did pretty well. Was Super Tuesday an “awful, no-good night” for Cruz? It seems to me the results were comparable for each.

What this is showing above all else is how this system is rigged against the will of the actual voters. Tell me the distinction between what we have now and what the USSR had under the commits and the central committee leadership.

It was a bad night for Trump because it shattered any lingering idea that Trump was going to run away with the nomination. Trump got less delagates than Cruz yesterday and the momentum was clearly all on Cruz’s side. Then today Trump got completely shut out of the Puerto Rico delegates - this is making it much harder for Trump to win a majority of the delegates.

Spoken like a true anti-Trump guy. Donald Trump had a pretty good night, winning the two biggest states, LA and KY. Had he lost either one of these, he would have had a bad night. I hope Trump does well on Tuesday!

Trump and Cruz own over 70%of the vote. That’s anti-establishment. If either one leaves, the other will get our votes.

Trump will get the delegates. Cruz will pledge his delegates to Trump. Trump will be the nominee, Cruz will get SCOTUS and the world will be better for it.

I voted for Cruz, but should Trump ultimately win the nomination I am voting for him because I am part of that 70%,

Trump can regain his strong footing if only he would RESPOND TO ATTACKS head on and NOT AVOID ANSWERING QUESTIONS during his press conferences.

Candidates slip when would-be voters have unresolved questions about them. This explains the LOW Democrat turn-out because of Hillary.

Well, consider this: On super Tuesday, Trump won 7 states and won 42% of the delegates. Cruz only won 3 states, but got 36% of the delegates. On super Saturday, Cruz won 2 of the states and won 44.5% of the delegates; Trump won 2 states and won 34% of the delegates...

So on those 2 dates, Trump won 4 more states, but came away with a grand total of 17 more delegates than Cruz.
