Cruz is being used to block Trump.
As soon as he’s no longer needed he’ll be cast aside by the GOPe. They’ll then move to steal the nomination at the convention.
The corrupt status quo will remain in Washington. Crony capitolism will still be alive and well. Illegals will continue to flow across the border. We had a chance and did not take it. The illegals will be able to vote and the country will never be the same again.
Based on the Trump followers logic on FR they should both drop out?
How about they both go until one gets 1237? Sound good to me.
He may get the nomination, but he will not win the general. I will not hold my nose and vote for any brokered candidate.
Then both Trump and Cruz are going to have to do insure that doesn't happen.
“How about they both go until one gets 1237? Sound good to me.”
That’s no fair. Trump should just get it.
Because.
As soon as hes no longer needed hell be cast aside by the GOPe. Theyll
then move to steal the nomination at the convention.
************
If the GOPe can keep both below the 1237 number then they get into the lets make a deal
for our candidate so as to bring the party together. Politics is sorta like making sausage.
LOL
You are awesome
This made me laugh and smile. Thanks. I needed some good sarcasm today.
Then they’ll choke on it. Team Cruz has already lined up hundreds of delegates for the second ballot.
So you’re a Hillary voter? That’s grounds for dismissal here.
That is the conclusion that this piece reaches, saying:
“Trumps campaign staffers have done this math. That is why they are increasingly laying the groundwork to call for Cruz to exit the race when he is eliminated from a majority. They know Cruz is the second ballot favorite, and that Kasich is a non-factor.”
Nope. I will pick a more conservative candidate from the Constitution Party in my state if Trump is not nominated.
Then they’re not COMPLETELY incompetent?
Hillary and the next Supreme Court justice thank you.
The Trumpster Fire!
Get In or Get Away.
This piece goes on in great detail - state by state - that this is not a slam dunk at all and that the long game is in favor of Cruz.
Correction: You have been losing your argument to the Trumpsters
Trump has fallen below Cruz in the Reuters polls.
The drop in Trumps support came just days after he retweeted an unflattering photograph of Cruzs wife, Heidi. In the following days, the campaigns engaged in a war of words over the candidates spouses. Trump also angered many on both sides of the abortion debate when he said in an interview that women who get abortions should be legally punished. The Trump campaign later clarified his remarks.
The drop in support for Trump comes at a critical time in his campaign. While he leads the overall race for delegates, there are growing questions over whether he will be able to secure the minimum 1,237 delegates necessary to win the nomination on the first ballot.
I don’t think Trump can get the votes now. Wisconsin is being downplayed by the trumpers and not a huge number of delegates are involved, but it changes the landscape a little.
