I’m thinking at this point that most of the Trump-bashers left are simply paid operatives of other campaigns, who know their only chance now is to block Trump from getting the nomination and thus have a brokered convention (i.e., handing it to Romney, Linda, or Jeb).
Even Cruz supporters understand this...and thus understand that Cruz will never get the nomination - either outright, and certainly not in a brokered convention. They know once Cruz lost the South, it was over for him...and very few true Cruz supporters here are allowing themselves to be used to further the cause of a brokered convention.
And don’t forget, there is a huge amount of money being spent, and much of it on ‘social media’, so it would be VERY SURPRISING if some of that is now being spent here.

It would be very surprising to me if some of it were NOT spent here. Lets be clear, campaigns will try to infiltrate whatever they can. It would be an oddity if the GOP did not have operatives posting on this web site.

Even Ted himself has understood this for some time now. I think he realized that Trump was going to be the nominee last summer. I think all of the candidates knew it, even if they didn’t want to admit it to themselves. They were all like a bunch of high school football players, standing in the same arena with a real life gladiator.
This contest was over the moment Trump stepped in.
