Well said. Trump will need Cruz in the Senate, who is likely going to end up running the judiciary committee if
he is not in the next admin.
Trump is attacking Cruz, because Cruz is doing so well.
We know this because Trump told Carson the pathological attacks were solely because of Carson’s rise in the polls.
We also know this because of the 2015 ‘bromance’ between Cruz and Trunmp.
Trump is looking for a pretext to brawl, since that is what he knows.
Was that Romney - Obama RCP poll taken while there were still two other Republican candidates still in the race ?
Not if someone like Rush or Hannity can broker a charming Trump/brainy Cruz combo..
“Not if someone like Rush or Hannity can broker a charming Trump/brainy Cruz combo.”
I know a lot of Cruz supporters that, even if Cruz somehow joins Trump, they still won’t vote because it’s Trump at the top of the ticket. I’m in that boat also. I will vote for nothing with trump on the top of the ticket.
In order for Kasich or Cruz to be running against Hillary they will have been appointed by the GOPe party apparatus. Believe me when I say this they will have zero chance of winning. The backlash will be so big that the Republican party will likely be over as well. Does the poll take that into account?
I think it more likely that the FBI is going to destroy Clinton.
“I will not vote for Cruz!”
*****************************************
What a stunning surprise—neither will many other ‘RATS.
By the way, if you have any influence in the Trump campaign will you please have Trump do yet another tweet insulting/denigrating Ted Cruz’ wife. PRETTY PLEASE have him do one.
If Obama sees that our side is weak, then no way Lynch prosecutes hillary.
Then we get FIVE decades of criminality well into the 2020s.
Andrew Jackson’s wife was destroyed in the 1820s.
Fame and ambition can have terrible costs.
If either group does not show , Hillary wins with women voters , who are about 56% of the electorate.
*********************************************
That is the biggest problem Trump has in the general election.
Romney won white women, and still lost. Trump is losing with white women. He will lose in a landslide without them. I have seen polls that show that between 39-49 percent of republican women refuse to vote for him.
Those numbers are devastating, and only getting worse.
Reagan was down by 25 points in March of 1980, he was called a buffoon, and mocked for being a low class actor {he was also divorced, and no divorced man had ever been elected President}.
No one cares about you and your sensitive feelings.
Trump got away with going after Mygyn , but not Heidi.
At the same time, Cruz KNEW about Heidi’s challenges before this race started.
Trump can not attack ANYONE on our side anymore.
No more references to Jeb or MArco .
Trump’s instinct is to spoil for brawl at the convention.
Not good. If Trump implodes and Cruz gets 1237 we lose.
If Trump comes up short and Cruz wins on the third ballot, we lose.
If Trump gets 1237 and Cruz walks out , we lose.
If if Hillary drops out , we lose against, Bidan, Sanders or fauxcahotus.
Very different scenario. That divorce was seen as Jane Wyman’s fault and Reagan had been stable win Nancy for many decades.
And was gov of California for 8 years.
Reagan also took on the loathsome ‘voodoo economics’ bush for his VP.
Some maybe Trump takes on Ted for his vp.
Means nothing now. Come September these polls will mean something.
The issue is the polls are trending in the wrong direction for our side.
Trump will destroy Hillary. She will not want to face him.
How? By exposing her corruption and incompetence. Won’t work as that’s already factored in these polls.
How ‘bout a good old fashion Twitter War?
At the same time, Cruz KNEW about Heidi’s challenges before this race started.
Trump can not attack ANYONE on our side anymore.

I agree. However, that is not going to happen. I'm telling you right now, and you can take to the bank. Trump will lose in a landslide.
I am about the most solid republican women voter you can get.
I have never missed an election, and I have never voted for anyone other than a republican my whole life. I held my nose and voted for Romney and McCain, and I planned to do it again with Trump.
However, I have since changed my mind. I absolutely cannot vote for this man.
If he lost a die hard republican like me, he really doesn't stand a chance.

Obama wins in 12 with fewer votes than he had in 08....
And, from what I’ve read, was the first time a president has won re election with fewer votes than he won the first time.
