The Vast Majority of Republicans want to start the war with Hillary, but this one f-ing jerk is holding everybody up. This f-ing narcissistic, fringe lunatic, piece of stool, is helping her.
Oregon where I thought Kasich might win but Trump is way up.
Third place Ted needs to get out.
I will be interesting if Ted can raise any hard money to fund his campaign and if Mitt Romney can find some Pac money.
Ted Cruz works for the R wing of the globalist uniparty. The R wing of the uniparty is perfectly happy with President Hillary. Cruzs job is to stop Trump at any cost and by any means. Which is why all Cruz does is attack Trump. Voting for Cruz at this juncture is the same as voting for Hillary.
Trump's followers would, if confident, move on as well but Trump and the followers are all in a verrrrrrry passionate hurry to get Cruz and Kasich to drop out. How come?
If Trump actually gets to 1237, which I doubt, he will have won by an approximation of "fair and square" and I would back him over any attempt by anybody in RNC, GOP-E, Wall Street, K Street, US Chamber of Crony Commerce, the RNC Rules Committee, the Convention Rules Committee, some vague committee that reports on Credentials TO the Convention Credentials Committee, Paul Ryan-o as Convention Chair or anyone else thwart his nomination by shenannigans after the fact (which you can bet your bottom dollar each and every one of them is planning) and, knowing Paul Manafort, Roger Stone and Charlie Black as I have for four decades now, I have little doubt that they will try to take trump supporters, Cruz supporters or any other delegates on a "Nantucket boat ride," an adventure wherein Moby Dick storms out to see attached to your whale oat and there's not much you can do to stop it.
Nowadays, Stone is a buffoon but study up on Paul Manafort and his involvement for the reds in retaking control of Ukraine and the fact that for all these pretenses of enmity between Trump and the "Establishment," manafort is joined permanently at the hip with that very "Establishment."
If Trump IS actually anti-Establishment, Manafort may well betray him by JUST marginally failing to get him nominated and collect on both sides OR if Trump is actually GOP-E as I believe, Manafort will get him nominated and advise him on how to screw conservatives over with velvet gloves at leisure including Trump's "conservative supporters.
Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss or close to same. Be afraid, be verrrrry afraid. If he is Trump's savior, it will be because it is in Paul's personal $$$$$ interest. If not, oh well. Paul is a very bright and experienced and capable guy and he knows how to lose as well as how to win. It is always his choice.
Oh, and a vast plurality is not a vast majority, even if you capitalize V and M. Nothing stops you from attacking the Hildebeast along with all of Trump's supporters. It would make you and him look better and it would hurt her instead of the people whom you need to beat her. I so despise Hillary that I will even vote for Trump once nominated. others who have opposed him and been relentlessly attacked for it may have resentments too deep to allow that. They are the ones who actually care what his supporters think of them as I do not.
