Wisconsin was his high water mark.
It also exposed how much help Cruz is getting from the Bush/Romney/Graham establishment and it’s turning people off.
So is Cruz.
Good example of TrumpLogic there. Conservatives are leaving Cruz for GOPe Kasich because Cruz is too establishment? What?
Here is a more logical reading of the poll results. Trump is not gaining much ground on anyone. Former Bush and Rubio supporters who were considering Cruz are heading Kasich's way.
Exactly as I predicted a few weeks ago, Kasich is doing Trump's bidding by pulling left and moderate voters to himself, denying Cruz the ability to reach 1237.
As a reward, if Trump gets the nomination you can expect him to name Kasich as VP.
Wisconsin a high water mark? Actually it was YUGE political mistake.
Wisconsin was a Cruz/media political stunt. It wasn’t indicative of anything. They were hoping to try and create the “appearance” of momentum where none existed.
They made a big play for a state they could win and where Trump wasn’t concentrating. They pulled out all the stops, went all out. Walker, Romney, talk show hosts, and media.
They pulled it off swimmingly, except for one thing... it was a DUD. They won the state, big deal, but they got no momentum, no bounce. In fact it went the other way. It was a disaster.
They tried a political stunt and it flopped. They spent valuable time, political capital, and resources not to win a state, but to jumpstart a lagging, losing campaign. It didn’t work. You can’t get the time and money back that would have been better spent elsewhere.
It’s like spending $50 to win a $2 kewpie doll. Yeah, you won, but was it worth what it cost. Can you afford to keep doing that?
