Trump was trailing cruz 10 points in December. Trump is novice politician. Trump comes in second closely behind Cruz. Trump apparently did well compared to where he was one month ago.
50% more voter turnout than 2012. Trump got the second most votes ever by a Republican at a primary.
Cruz has to lose a bit of his soul by using dirty tricks on Carson. It wasn’t a tweeted photo of CNN; there was a campaign email warning of ‘news coming tonight on Carson’ in advance. That’s pre-planned and from the top.
Trump erred in not going to the debate. Lots of low information voters make their mind up last minute and they broke Rubio.
Do you get dizzy when you spin that hard?

C'mon, even you have to admit that is just making excuses. Trump led in Iowa for all of the past 6 months, with the exception of a total of 6 weeks (2 Carson led, 4 Cruz led), including the last few weeks of the campaign. He got outworked and outcampaigned.
