“We’ll see how desperate the GOP is. If they really don’t want to nominate Trump, there needs to be some pretty fast “smokey back room” agreements to get everyone but Rubio to drop out. It’s the only chance they have and it’s got to happen before Super Tuesday or Trump will win every state except Florida, Ohio and Texas. (and he may do well there too)”
The establishment GOPe burned that bridge with Cruz. As long as Cruz stays in, Rubio cannot get traction which means Trump will be the nominee.
After looking at this for a while, and going back over the entire process, one line keeps coming to the forefront. “”I’m a big fan of Donald’s, and we talked about the race,” Cruz told reporters. “We talked about how we are each enjoying it and how there is a need for more truth tellers.””
I think Cruz and Trump set this whole thing up. They sucked all the oxygen out of the room, together they have close to 70% of the votes and both have a war chest that is more than the GOPe.
Something is amiss.
This is one of those classic logical fallacies. Rubio cannot get traction. Whether Cruz is in or out is irrelevant. It just shifts the target of the blame, since the last thing GOPe will do is put the blame where it belongs, squarely on themselves.
That would make sense if they were going to be on the ticket together. But you think Cruz/Trump can get past the whole - He’s Canadian, he’s unstable, he’s a liar, he’s ineligible... thing?
One thing we’re not analyzing is how much of the gop-e are being primaried as we speak? That would be a strong indicator of ‘outsider’ intent.
I don't think Cruz in or out changes the outcome. Cruz is not in the kingmaker spot.
Rubio is in trouble too, but that isn't obvious just yet. At some point, Trump will pay some attention to Rubio, his record, his temperament, and his (lack of) experience.
With Trump and Cruz out, Rubio would get enough traction to win the nomination. But he will never get enough traction to beat Bernie or Hillary.
Something is amiss.
Rather, its a good thing?
How else to take down both GOP and DUH?
The combination of these two is good.
One is strong in one thing, the other is strong in what the other is lacking....
Its not going to be a party, no pun inteneded. We have a lot to fix, I imagine deporting will be an upheaval but the American people need relief. Go Trump/Cruz
I hope so. A Trump/Cruz ticket would awesome.
Cardiac doctors would make Billions in Washington DC !
I’ve had suspicions along those lines. Trump meets with Sarah, then he meets with Ted, then he announces.
