JR is right;

Cruz has lost it fair and square and should step aside for the sake of the country.
If his continued efforts at thievery split and destroy the party, we’ll be saddled by Hillary or burned by Bernie.

Cruz lost the primary vote and is now aiding and abetting the enemy (the GOPe)
in their treasonous attempt to deny the nomination to the winner.
Cruz is a sore loser turned traitor against the grassroots voters.
And the foolish neophyte thinks the GOPe is going to let him have a shot at the presidency if he helps them block Trump?
Laughable if it wasn’t so serious.

JR is right

I disagree. Let me make a tennis analogy. If we are playing tennis and you win game 11 in the set, you are up 6-5. You are the only player with a 'path to the right number of games to win the set'. So I should quit? That makes no sense. The winner is the first one to 6 games, and you have to win by 2. Those are the rules, and the game is played according to the rules. If I win the next game and we go to 6-6, there isn't a winner in the set - yet. The rules change, we keep playing, and at some point a winner will be declared. To say that one of the players should drop out before the completion of the match because he cannot win it in the conventional way...doesn't make much sense to me.

It would be hard to add anything to the words of our leader. The honorable thing to do would be for the Cruzers to leave or shut up, as they are obviously in the wrong place. It is RUDE for them to come here and insult JimRob.

The only thing I would add is from the Washington Post, April 11, 2016, describing what has been called the "Cruz superior ground game" and Cruz's "courting" of the delegates in states where the primaries are finished, Trump has been victorious and moved on, but Cruz's hacks remain behind. Here's the "ground game", defined"

Under regulations established in the 1980s, delegates cannot take money from corporations, labor unions, federal contractors or foreign nationals. But an individual donor is permitted to give a delegate unlimited sums to support his or her efforts to get selected to go to the convention, including money to defray the costs of travel and lodging.

That should explain everything about how "smart" Cruz's "ground game" is.
