Nice article, but I disagree with characterizing this as a done deal by any stretch of the imagination. The political establishment will never, ever give up. We’re in for a long, vicious slog.

Create an atmosphere of invincibility on the outside while working your butt off on the inside...I think that’s what we’ll be seeing. Trump is a master negotiator and an expert at psy-ops, as Cruz learned much to his detriment. Trump will have no problem keeping Cabana-Boy’s head spinning faster than when Christie was smacking him around.

You’re right, but Trump’s a honey badger & he don’t care....going to be nasty for sure.

It ain’t just the political establishment that wants Trump destroyed. Go read the Trump Hate posted over at the Liberal-Leftist websites. It’s only slightly more toxic than the Trump bashing here at FR.

47% of this country would be more than happy to live under Marxist tyranny and they view Trump as the reincarnation of Adolph Hitler. Of course there is no difference between Marxist tyranny and Fascist tyranny but hey, we’re dealing with liberals here.

The political establishment will never, ever give up.

Don't bet on it. At heart, they're nothing but a bunch of self-serving, power clutching jackals, who will bend their knee to whatever master holds the crown - just as long as they believe they can find some small sliver of favor.

Trust me. In time, they'll all go begging to Trump with hat in hand.

Yeah, they'll jam Rubio down our throats until the bitter end. It'll be ridiculous.

Heck, we Cruz supporters won’t be giving up anytime soon.

I am of the opinion that prior to Super Tuesday, the purpose of the caucuses is to eliminate the bottom tier of candidates. A “trend” only really starts for the top candidates after Super Tuesday. Having said all of that, if the polls hold true, my math shows that Trump goes into the convention with about 1300 delegates. Enough to avoid a floor fight.

You are right its not a done deal by a longshot but the good news is Trump will sail into the SEC with 3 wins under his belt and doubtless bigger and better poll numbers because of it. He has GA and AL wrapped up likely the other SEC states with the possible exception of AR. But that could also change in the next 9 days. Momentum is a wonderous thing in politics.
