[Donald] Trumps second-place finish to Sen. Ted Cruz (Tex.) in Tuesdays Wisconsin Republican primary may represent no ordinary setback, write the Washington Posts Karen Tumulty, Jose A. DelReal and Robert Costa. It appears to be a pivot pointalthough it has yet to be seen whether the trajectory from here points downward or upward.

The last time he faced the prospect of venturing into hostile territorywhen his rally in Chicago was overrun by left-wing disruptorshe ended up bugging out. If he fails to secure a majority of delegates, perhaps rather than endure defeat in Cleveland he will find a way to withdraw ungraciously before the convention.

Yes Trump is in the dominate position, Because it is percolating ahead of the race that that Cruz is just another Globalist Job Killing anti-American fake riding the Tea party image. GOPe can steal one or maybe 2 more states for Cruz but not enough. besides, at convention, Trump is a multi- billionaire, if hes close he can BUY the other delegates he would need.
That’s what Ichan and his other billionaire allies are for
“We Trump supporters will remain faithful to THE DONALD...
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AHEAD...IT IS ALL MOST OVER...”

Unfortunately for Trump, it looks like the primary will not be over until after the convention in Cleveland.
I have faith that Mr. Cruz has a plan for all contingencies...the short term goal is to hold THE DONALD under 50% statewide in NY to set up a proportional delegate allocation.
Trump has been long expected to win big in NY, but if he falls below 50% in his home state, the media will rightfully hammer him. Cruz, with the help of Mr. Kasich, will be happy to oblige!
Remember, ten out of the 27 NY congressional districts either have Republican representatives (9) or have a Republican electorate...it’s all delegate math at this point!
After the primary, I doubt that nominee Cruz will be giving much effort in NY...no sense wasting time and $$$ there in the general! Let the corrupt Hildabeast have blue NY...President Cruz will return when he needs to give a speech at the UN!
BTW, no GOP staffer or smooth talking lawyer here...just a humble HoosierWordsmith...!
Hate PC and the GOPe, just like the Trump folks!
The best evidence Trump can beat Hillary, is Hillary. Stop parroting stupid talking points common sense tells you are garbage.
The Reson Kasich is staying in is because under the State rules his delegates go to the runner up if he drops out. That would be Trump, they are not unbound.
Thanks for the update...this is the first rational explanation I’ve seen for Mailbags staying in the race!
“Cruz Cucks Clan” - sums it up nicely!
You’re on point regarding the south, a fact they love to ignore. Sigh
thanks for that...
I'm just an old retired lady, that is sick and tired of B.Hussein obama and liberals that think they are the only ones on Earth with any ‘Smarts’...Just don't care for Cruz, but I did in the beginning...His cocky attitude (said with tongue in cheek~~) turns me off.and I'm sure it turns a lot of Americans off.
again thanks for a decent reply~
Again you must be being too subtle. What is eard*ck?
I do not get it, VD.
Tagline change.
I know some that have gone to his rallys and said they were electrifying, but they would never vote for him.
I have relatives that went to his rally in Superior, Wis when he came.
They’re all voting for Sanders
