I agree.
It’s largely marketing.
Inflate the numbers.
Deflate the numbers.
Selectively report the numbers.
Weight the numbers.
Canvass selected groups - have a “national primary?”
On and on.
A few weeks back they tried the “Trump is tanking! Will he drop out?”
Every other week we get a “Trump drop out” story.
I supported Cruz. Given the heat on Trump, I may vote for him just because I knew he’s the one guy that could destroy the Uniparty.
They could always hold back all funding for Cruz and he would stand no chance.
Trump can self fund.
