Donald Trump needs to win less than 300 more delegates in the remaining GOP contests to clinch the Republican presidential nomination and avoid a contested convention.

He is running against one of the least attractive women in the country. And if anyone needed serious facial repair, it was Cruz. Does The Donald really need a makeover?

Indeed we are. It's unfortunate that he has become so desperate as to head down this road. Naming a VP in iCarly was not the answer to his electoral woes. I understand that it's hard to lose, and to someone like Trump (assuming you view him negatively).
At this point for Cruz, it is better to accept defeat with grace, and move forward to salvage what's left of his reputation. I appreciate the crash it big idea, but it's a fools errand. Cruz has much to contribute to a Trump administration and he would be wise to bury the hatchet with Trump, congratulate him on his victory and move on in a way that is positive for the country as a whole. The pettiness we are seeing now, is unbecoming, and is showing a sign of the very narcissism he complains about in others.
The idea that he's going to win the nomination in a contested convention is nutty. Even further...does he honestly think that by displaying the petulance we are seeing now is going to endear him to the voters come November were he to prevail at the convention? I doubt it.
LOL
Sometimes I wonder. I often wonder about the “don’t have sh!t, don’t worry bout sh!t” credo under which so many of our finest bottom tier voters live.
Taxes? What the hell are those? All I want is my EITC check and my Section 8 trailer, some TANF and some WICs and SNAP for the common law old lady..... and sit out on the front stoop watchin the fools drive by going to work - suckers.
“We are witnessing Cruz commit political suicide in real time. It’s painful to watch.”
Not painful for me to watch, so far look at all the RINO’s and faux conservatives that have been outed, and that doesn’t include the radio show talking bobbleheads like Fart rush and dumb Levin.
BEST ELECTION EVER!!!!
Even Bing is predicting that Trump will win enough on the first ballot.

Yeah, me too.
For the first time, he needs less that 50% of the remaining delegates, 49.6%. Going over 2472 would be better for him as who knows what shenanigans will be played with/by the unbound.
My worst fear for Cruz is that he returns to the senate and actually becomes the Senator many around here accuse him of being...that would be a disaster.
Not about Cruz/Fiorina any longer. It’s what the Left and their media lapdogs are gonna do to Trump to ensure Hillary is elected.
51 in Joisey, then WV, which I forget-—34?-—so he is at +85. CA=minimum of 140 or 225, without OR, WA, IN, or NM.
I bought his book, “A Time For Truth”. What an ironic title. I’d like a refund - and I’d donated the refund to Trump.
I donated to Trump. I think every Trump supporter should donate. I think we should swamp him with donations. Trump didn’t need to do this, he owes us nothing. Yet he wants to pay back for what this country has done for him.

“The secret of fortune is joy in our hands. Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide. Him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him because he did not need it.”

Trump has peaked, I’m telling you peaked, so listen to what I way. Why won’t the voters listen to Karl Rove, he’s been telling everyone the truth about Trump peaking. First he peaked at 20, the 25, and 30, then 35, and 40, and 45, now he’s getting 55%
PEAKED.
So figure Trump will get at least 40 delegates in New Jersey, if not all 51.
So that leaves about 200 remaining delegates or thereabouts that Trump needs to secure, factoring in New Jersey.

I donated to Trump also. I will again.
I absolutely don’t blame Cruz for trying, but now, at this point, it is nothing more than scorched earth.
It would have been better if Cruz had been gracious in accepting defeat, move on, go back to the Senate, and make peace with Trump as well as offer congrats to him.
To paraphrase one writer from the Revolution: I hate them with a perfect hatred.
