Trump has to get a big establishment boy to fight his battles I thought he had this nomination won long ago. He even had the media convinced he was the front runner— live by the polls die by the polls. He had so much media attention along with Jeb that no one else got much.
Yes, Trump did have a lot of media exposure, the media couldn’t believe a non-dc-insider could gain so much media attention. The original 15 began to drop out. Then there was 3 (with Rubio holding onto his delegates). Kasich, I think is a spoiler and in the end will give his delegates to Cruz, as will Rubio). The GOPe has kept Kasich in the running (poor thing) to make sure Donald Trump will not win.
A McConnel PAC has been giving money to Cruz since December 2015 to make sure he takes delegates from Trump. When the final delegates (after cruz stealing) Kasich and Rubio will give their delegates to cruz. I imagine this will improve their bank accounts.
