If you’re tuning into the fake news media, Fox News included, you’d be led to believe there’s a hotly contested “primary race” in progress. But let’s set the record straight—there is no actual race. Trump is on track to clinch the primary in a historic landslide, marking one of the least competitive primaries in modern political history. Yet NeverTrumpers like Paul Ryan, a board member at Fox Corp, are likely in denial and desperate to keep the “race” narrative going. If you’ll recall, about a year ago, Paul Ryan confidently made this prediction:
As usual, Paul Ryan and the rest of the establishment are clueless about the current state of the GOP. Now relegated to the fringe, they’re scrambling to back literally anyone other than President Trump. However, their struggle is in vain. Trump is not only primed for victory; he’s on the verge of triggering the “winner-takes-all” rule come Super Tuesday.
You might be wondering, “What does ‘winner-takes-all’ mean?” Simply put, it’s the most straightforward method for allocating delegates: win the most votes in a state over a certain threshold (usually 50 percent), and you get all of that state’s delegates. The great news for Trump is that most Republican primaries operate under this winner-takes-all rule, where the candidate with the most votes takes all the delegates. Iowa and New Hampshire are exceptions, where delegates are awarded in proportion to the raw vote count. Respected pollster Richard Baris has been monitoring this political landscape closely, and here’s what he said about what’s actually playing out.
Trump is set to trigger winner-take-all rules in literally every single state with a threshold on Super Tuesday, including California and Texas.
You’d never know from watching Murdoch Media, but this is the least competitive primary in modern memory.

But it looks like it's not working.
Trump will sweep and all the Establishment can do about it is watch in horror...AGAIN!
Ya never know, Jeb Bush might come back out of nowhere.
Nowheresville is where Jeb belongs.
One place ¡Jeb! won't be found: grieving at the Terri Schiavo's grave.
I hate Paul Ryano with an unholy passion.
That’s a true statement.
How well I remember!
FOX wasnt fake news.
However now the Murdoch’s entitled, spoiled, affluent children have taken over I’m not so sure.
Yes, he might move from nowhere to no how.
Paul Ryan was Zero’s Cabana Boy.
The new push is to keep him of the ballot using the 14th A; Colorado is being sued by some Dem front group on behalf of 3 people 2 of which are Republicans to that end.
Tesm the GOPe are keeping the myth of a rfeal [promary race alive and s-ending millions to do it.
Thatmakes me believe they will do something to get rid of Trump.
Any guess as to what that might be?
Time to get realistic and keep Trump safe.
The terrible news for Trump is that "primaries" have no legal or constitutional existence, they are set up by private organizations (the RNC, in this case) who can change the rules at any time up to or after the convention, and who, in the case of the RNC, have no intention of Trump being the nominee.
I pray my enemy is that stupid.
BTTT
I’ve never seen Pence and Jeb Bush at the same time.
Coincidence? I think not.
Ya imagine how a normie will feel when told the RNC voided their vote because the elites wanted a different candidate in the primary. OMG you thought Trump was a powerhouse now, that would make him juggernaut!
Most people utterly abhor such blatant foul play, many fence sitters would be turned into spite voters for Trump.
“I hate Paul Ryano with an unholy passion.”
I should have pissed on his shoes when I had the chance.

I have for some time thought that the problem here is the GOPe does not understand. I no longer think that.
They do understand. They cannot accept what they understand, because if they accept it it means they’re losing their jobs. They are the Swamp. So it’s not a matter of not understanding. It’s a choice to reject reality and hope a miracle occurs.
The miracle in question is that they won’t be voted out of office by Trump supporters who are entirely willing to have a Democrat in a 99% GOP District if the GOP seat holder was anti-Trump, or let me be more carefully specific, pro-Swamp.
This is the ONLY issue. Destroy the Swamp. There is no need for debate because debates pretend there are other issues. Tax and spend involves money created from nothing via QE. Nothing about such a substance can warrant debate.
I saw a poll recently that said Independents had moved to Trump. I also heard a guru say there was no sign of this. We need to see more polls of Independents.
