Very true... in a formerly crowded field in which Rubio, who pulled more than 3 million votes himself is no longer in the mix. Trump had Rubio's presence on the ballot to thank for his wins in Illinois, Missouri and North Carolina.
And don/t think keeping Rubio in did not cross the minds of the Trump team strategists.
Letting ol’ Maple Leaf Teddy win a few inconsequential states was also a good idea.
