President Trump set to trigger “winner-take-all rules” for Super Tuesday…

If you’re tuning into the fake news media, Fox News included, you’d be led to believe there’s a hotly contested “primary race” in progress. But let’s set the record straight—there is no actual race. Trump is on track to clinch the primary in a historic landslide, marking one of the least competitive primaries in modern political history. Yet NeverTrumpers like Paul Ryan, a board member at Fox Corp, are likely in denial and desperate to keep the “race” narrative going. If you’ll recall, about a year ago, Paul Ryan confidently made this prediction:

As usual, Paul Ryan and the rest of the establishment are clueless about the current state of the GOP. Now relegated to the fringe, they’re scrambling to back literally anyone other than President Trump. However, their struggle is in vain. Trump is not only primed for victory; he’s on the verge of triggering the “winner-takes-all” rule come Super Tuesday.

You might be wondering, “What does ‘winner-takes-all’ mean?” Simply put, it’s the most straightforward method for allocating delegates: win the most votes in a state over a certain threshold (usually 50 percent), and you get all of that state’s delegates. The great news for Trump is that most Republican primaries operate under this winner-takes-all rule, where the candidate with the most votes takes all the delegates. Iowa and New Hampshire are exceptions, where delegates are awarded in proportion to the raw vote count. Respected pollster Richard Baris has been monitoring this political landscape closely, and here’s what he said about what’s actually playing out.

Trump is set to trigger winner-take-all rules in literally every single state with a threshold on Super Tuesday, including California and Texas.

You’d never know from watching Murdoch Media, but this is the least competitive primary in modern memory.

I predicted back in March that the nominating campaign was over. It was clear then no one had a remote chance of stopping Trump. Since then, it’s only gotten better for Trump.

Baris continues to show he gets 10=13 MILLION Non-R/Non-D/Non-traditional indie support from people who just don’t ever vote.

BTW, tidbit, Arizona’s GOP registration GREW by over 40,000 since the 2022 election. We are now up 184,000 total over Ds, and have grown over 70,000 since the 2020 election.

You ask, what happened to Kari Lake besides fraud? McTurdites voted for Treasurer Yee but not Lake. The difference was 100,000, or far more than enough to defeat the Hobbit.

I’ve never seen Pence and Jeb Bush at the same time.

Coincidence? I think not.

Pence is Jeb's doppelgänger
