Paul Manafort: The whole premise of the Cruz campaign, the second ballot. There’s not going to be a second ballot… We’re out of Cruz land. Cruz is not even going to be finishing second for the next couple of weeks. He’s going to be a distant third in a lot of places.

Sean Hannity: So, in other words, you think Trump wins New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland?

Manafort: I think we’re doing very well in all those places. All the polls show us leading and we’re just starting to put our campaigns together there… June 7th is going to put us over but we’re not going to have to win overwhelmingly on June 7th… April is going to be a very bad month for Ted Cruz. He’ll probably finish third in delegates in April.

Trump recognized a problem and hired the best man to fix that problem.

Period.

That's the way business works when it's done right.

You don't sit around talking about positions of the fixer. That's just mental masturbation.

You hire the best fixer.

Rank relativism and and breathtaking hypocrisy, two of the dark Angels of the world of Donald Trump.

"He’s Canacuban!"

Is that a cigar? If it is, it will go up in smoke.

From Wikipedia:

In 1976, Manafort was the delegate-hunt coordinator for eight states for the President Ford Committee. Between 1978 and 1980, he was the southern coordinator for Ronald Reagan's presidential campaign, and the deputy political director at the Republican National Committee.

Appears he worked for Ford and Reagan.

Confused again as usual. Who cares if he is or was a lobbyist? A superficial mind of your caliber thinks that hiring a lobbyist is the same as being owned by his donors. Manafort was hired to do a job. Nothing more. Trump owes him nothing. He works for Trump not the other way around. You’re very dense aren’t you? :)

[nathanbedford]

As dense as I undoubtedly am, my olfactory senses are working just fine and I can smell rank hypocrisy from a mile away.

Yet you are incapable of detecting Cruz bullshit directly under your nose.

[MayflowerMadam]

From your post, it appears that Cruz might “out-first” even Obama.

I would love to have an American as President. It shouldn’t be this hard.

[nathanbedford]

Yet you are incapable of detecting Cruz bullshit directly under your nose.

1. If Cruz is guilty of "bullshit," that does not justify Trump's bullshit. Relativism is no way to choose a president of the United States of America. Relativism should be left on the playground after the fourth grade.

2. Anyway, Cruz is not guilty of "bullshit." Trump supporters and Trump himself are demonstrably guilty of lying about Cruz.

Thanks. Breitbart site crashes my laptop.

[Cboldt]

He got a kick of of his “Donald Reagan” misspeak ... but says there are many parallels between the two races, and being involved with the Trump campaign gives him a strong sense of deja vu.

[Cboldt]

-- He has a very cool and confident demeanor and I think he means business --

He views things as they are, "steely eyed detachment," and he speaks with precision. Just adding to your impression, which I agree with. No nonsense, no BS, he won't mislead those he is challenging, his cards will be on the table for the battle at hand.

[dennisw]

wrong!

[Cboldt]

Good artcile. FWIW, I’m a German-American, and I have lived part of my life in WOW country in Wisconsin, and in the Dutch counties in Michigan! Barone’s observation is accurate.

[petercooper]

Lawyer, lobbyist, consultant...

[castlegreyskull]

He work for Ford in 1976. Then in 1980 he worked for Reagan.

[meadsjn]

and the first president born to someone who fought for a Communist revolution.

Odinga's father and grandfather on his Kenyan side were both communist revolutionaries. His mother and maternal grandparents were all communist activists. His homo mentor and pimp was a communist activist. He surrounded himself with communist terrorists.

[mountainfolk]

Manafort does make a good impression on me for the job he has been hired to do. I do like his matter of fact approach in explaining the deliberately confusing delegate selection process. We are learning so much about why the GOP has become GOPe and so arrogant regarding imposing their own selected candidates on reluctant voters.

You want an American president and so do a lot of other folks. Too bad Bill H. B. No. 529 in the Texas Legislature had not been pushed for a vote. They must have got wind that Ted was on the rise in the Senate and posturing for a run at the WH. So they tabled it.

Since 2011, Texas was seeking to disqualify foreign born / ineligible citizens from the General Election Ballot.
Note: HB 529
..(d)AAThe secretary of state may not certify the name of a candidate for president or vice-president unless the candidate has presented the candidate ’s original birth certificate indicating that the person is a natural-born United States citizen...

Relating to certification for placement on the ballot of candidates for president or vice-president of the United States.

The Bill was sponsored by four(4) Republicans, with 24 Republican sponsors.

Leo Berman primary (Republican) District 6 Ken Legler (R) District 144; Charlie Howard (R) District 26; Lyle Larson (R) District 122
