Puerto Rico Victory For Trump, Will Erase Cruz 15 Delegate Gain From Last Night (Vanity)
03/06/16

Posted on 03/06/2016 6:59:43 AM PST by Enlightened1

There is an Open Primary in Puerto Rico today.  It's worth 23 Delegates.  If Trump wins this (which he should), then he should be able to erase most if not all the Delegates that Cruz gained last night (15 Delegates closer to Trump) .

Trump should win Mississippi, Michigan and Hawaii on Tuesday expanding his Delegate lead even further along.

Here is the link to the Delegate count.

“Cruz, Ted (R) $644,659 GOVERMENT LAWYER, that’s all he’s ever been.”

False. He was in private practice for a number of years. 2 years before he joined the W. Bush campaign and 5 years before he became Texas Senator.

“Lawyers are just wordsmiths, not people of action or doers who produce things of value to society. “

Yes, they personify the comment: “I come here today to tell you about something about which I know nothing!” They are “legal technicians, not “builders!” In The UK, they are wisely precluded from serving in elective legislative office. (There are no lawyers in the House of Commons)

So many people - once again - writing the Trump campaign’s obituary in thread after thread posted here. Given the relentless attacks over the past few days, it’s not surprising his Super Saturday wasn’t what it might have been, but who else would have survived at all? Put that behind us, and let’s move forward.

Good move on his part!

Just about all of PR is bankrupt.

"Trump declared bankruptcy of his golf resort in PR about 4 weeks after getting into the race"

In the old days you'd have to go to DU or some other lefty cesspool to get such biased BS.

"The Trump International Golf Club Puerto Rico, which bears the name of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, filed for bankruptcy protection Monday, court documents show.

Owned by developer Empresas Diaz, the club uses the Trump name under a licensing agreement. Donald Trump does not own the club."

I thought the Republican Convention was on July 18 in Cleveland. Bad info?

It is July 18, much earlier than the recent past.

In 2008, it wasn’t until September.

So? Trump has an army of lawyers because he sues and is sued almost daily.

That is a very interesting read. I saw it was Slate and gave it a pass at first, then my curiosity got the best of me. It is a very long read, but worth it.

Marco will sweep all 23 PR delegates. He was the only one to really try there.

No effect on Trump or Cruz really. Just gives Rubio another excuse to stay in.

Brokered convention strategy proceeding right along...

You have a smart wife. I didn’t think about it til now, and she is right; that is exactly what happened at the debate.

This is first I heard that Trump might win PR. I’d like to see it happen but what is this based on? Only Rubio bothered to go down there and I figured it was in the bag for him. Being that he can’t seem to win anything stateside.

I was not aware of that. A fascinating factoid. Thanks for sharing that info.

Trump should win PR?

You’re a world class political analyst, eh?
