The word “class” and Cruz don’t belong on the same continent.

I’m betting, as most are, Trump will either have it going in or have plans in place to cover any minor shortfalls.

Cruz is a few weeks from an world class ass waxing in NY, and that’ll set his trajectory for the duration.

If not, it’ll be Hillary.

Fell free to continue you delusion.
Vote Cruz. Hillary thanks you.

“Ted is taking the process seriously, using his time efficiently, and proactively making contact with the delegates.” BS - face the truth he is an insider and would lay with anyone to win...he is too stupid to see that if he were to beat Trump, the same ones will dump him the next day in a New York minute, because he will THEN not be found to be legal to run..and then who gets it!

The country finally goes to hell with whom the reps pick at that point win or lose it is hitlery or a loser rep insider...time for....

Shenanigans such as this remove all doubt about whether Cruz has any principles.

If Trump will not use all legal means at his disposal to get every 1st round unbound delegate he can and visit every delegate and attempt to get their vote in subsequent rounds then he will surely lose. Shenanigans, no politics yes.

I think most of you who won’t vote for anyone other than Trump will be horrified at what comes out of the demo candidates mouth in the general. And vote a straight Repub ticket like me.

They are not capable of governing. Simply that.

Paul Manafort, Donald Trump’s new convention manager

Quite the GOPe insider.

He’s not paid by the GOP though. Big difference from Ted who’s frantically fluffing any establishment eelitist he can get close to.

Ted is solidifying his GOPe bona fides everyday.

Ted Cruz is now Romney’s sock puppet and bitch.

If this is “cheating” why has Trump hired a political operative named Manafort who wrangled delegates for Romney to do the very same thing? Trump was behind the curve. Does not bode well for managing the country.

Obama would remain in office for the interim.

Jan 20, 2017 Barack Obama is no longer President. Maybe VP Jeb Bush will be sworn in. :)

The normal process is winning 1237 delegates.

Unfortunately, I don’t think Kasich (or Rubio) can have their delegates vote for Trump on the first ballot. The delegates are bound to vote for the candidate affirmed in the primary or caucus.

If Trump is going to get outwitted in this simple procedure, then he is not as smart as he claims to be. Wise up and read the rule book. The rules have been written for years.

Trump is way behind the curve due to his hubris and lack of preparation. He has hired Romney's delegate wrangler and now is going to do the very thing that his supporters are calling "cheating." LOL!

I posted this on another thread ...
Cruz needs 88% of the remaining delegates and Trump has just brought in a guy that is going to stop that dead in it’s tracks ... even if they steal it from Trump , the majority of Trump voters will not vote for Cruz ...the Cruz folks have got a tiger by the tail here and they are panicking ...so what do they do , they attack an old school true Conservative - Manafort ...they are pathetically unreal

All his talk of conservative values...

Trump has no conservative values other than when he's "catering to Republicans right now". He's in over his head and has put together a losing team that's been outmaneuvered. Don needs to go back to his world of crony capitalism where he can contribute to the likes of Schumer and Clinton for the benefit of his personal wealth.

If they totally disband their campaign instead of suspending it at least a portion if not all become unbound.

What’s going to be really funny (not really) is watching the Cruzbots squirm if the GOPe does steal it from Trump and hands it to Cruz ... the true polls will come out , Cruz will lose, and they will blame Trump and Trump’s supporters...bring it on , steal it , we dare you
