I agree .. Trump started with 16 rivals and has consistently won states from day one. I get a kick when Cruz says 60% of voters don’t want Trump. Of course he doesn’t follow that up with the fact that 80% of voters don’t want Cruz, or that he rarely wins states unless they are caucuses, where his campaign can play their tricks (Iowa!!!).

I’d hold my nose and vote for him if he were the nominee, but
it won’t matter anyway .. he will get slaughtered in the general.

Agree. Just don’t understand how a guy that got 13 and 17 percent in the two swing states of FL and OH has any chance in Nov.

“Trump started with 16 rivals and has consistently won states from day one.”

Ted started out with the same number of rivals, yet has consistently trailed Trump throughout the race. He’s done we’ll in caucus states where his ‘secret army’ could twist the arms of small numbers of attendees, but he’s performed dismally in straight primary states.

Ted’s got a moral test on his hands. Does he stay in, knowing that he has no chance of capturing the nomination fair and square, but also potentially stopping his chief rival of doing the same? Or, does he get out now, and prevent the party insiders from taking the process away from the people?

I hope Ted chooses wisely.
