He told reporters following a groundbreaking at a sausage factory

Ironic. People are tired of the sausage making that goes on behind the scenes in selecting our candidates. They simply want THE PEOPLE to decide. I get that Wisconsin voted for Cruz in the primaries. I voted for Cruz in my primary. But the people want Trump, and I am proudly supporting Trump now that he is the presumptive nominee and has garnered pledged delegates well in excess of the number required. Is this whole damn party going crazy?!!!

I looked at the Wisconsin returns pretty closely and I noticed a couple of interesting things. A.) Donald Trump won more votes in Wisconsin than Mitt Romney did by a lot and B.) your heavy democratic areas all had majorly increased voter turnout as compared to the 2008 primary and Cruz seemed to win those areas. I know for a fact that Dems crossed over in Ohio and voted for Kasich in order to prevent Trump from closing the deal right then and there. I think they crossed over for Cruz in Wisconsin, in large numbers, for basically the same reason. Trump won more votes than Mitt Romney in Wisconsin but still lost somehow?

The state delegates are pledged to vote for whoever won their state primary in the first round.
