As we saw in Colorado

Say goodbye to the Republican Party. Not only will everyone despise the party, only diehard Cruz supporters will vote for him in the General. He couldn’t win anyway, it will only mean Hillary will win by a landslide.
Anytime someone’s plans are described as a scheme,you can bet that something nefarious is going on.
Trump is crying but he gets 22% more delegates than the proportional vote; more than any other candidate. Without that bias, his lead would be much narrower.
Can’t run a campaign, can’t run a country.
“Scheme?” Hah!!!
Strategy is what it is and Cruz is a freaking political genius...and Trump ain’t.
It’s brains over bull.
I wonder if anyone's going to yell "Godwin's Law!" because of that... (*wry look*)
(N.B. That's an oblique criticism of people who immediately dismiss Third-Reich references--whether good or bad comparisons in their own right--by yelling that, BTW.)
Here is what the CA GOP estimates it will cost a delegate to the national convention:
“Financial obligations of delegates include, but are not limited to: lodging (the RNC requires you purchase all 5 nights), food, travel, and a $900 participation charge. Take into consideration that convention centers and hotels often have higher costs for food and beverage purchases than you would find at home. We estimate the costs for a delegate to range between $3,000-$6,000.”
So in a little over three weeks, Trump has to identify 338 people who are willing to spend $3000-6000 to serve as a delegate for him. That might be tough in south central LA, the Central Valley, other places where the economy hasn’t been so good...
“Say goodbye to the Republican Party. Not only will everyone despise the party, only diehard Cruz supporters will vote for him in the General. He couldnt win anyway, it will only mean Hillary will win by a landslide.”
Seems that Cruz is better at putting a winning team together than Trump. Trump’s ego got in the way and he failed.
65K Coloradans voted--they just voted against Trump. That's 11 elections in a row we've won.

Great interview with Paul Manafort, he talks about Californa;

Trump doesn't need 70% to win. WTF is Lyin' Ted talking about?
“Trump is crying but he gets 22% more delegates than the proportional vote; more than any other candidate.”
GOOD! He needs to shut down the CanoTexas Tick Turd!
“Team Cruz is much, much better than Team Trump at understanding and taking advantage of each states distinctive primary or caucus rules to maximize its delegate tally.”
Blderdash, Cruz is winning nothing, its the GOPe neverTrump State political machine. And they are not loyal to Cruz.
“GOOD! He needs to shut down the CanoTexas Tick Turd!”
Why are Trump and his supporters so into the mud?
Oh really?? And they have been working for Cruz for over a year, long before Trump ever got into the race, just as a way to defeat Trump? Wow, they must have some really good fortune tellers to be able to see the future like that!
If cruz have a better team then it wouldn’t be down 200 delegates and 2 million votes and spent more money than trump
I see zero signs anywhere in my area that indicate any candidate is the one.
I could see The Donald hanging ten before Ted gets his wet suit on..
“Say goodbye to the Republican Party. Not only will everyone despise the party, only diehard Cruz supporters will vote for him in the General. He couldnt win anyway, it will only mean Hillary will win by a landslide.”
Evidently, it’s completely and totally unfair if Trump has to follow the rules.
Cruz is polling better than Trump in the head to head matchups for the general election.
