“Ronald Reagan and Jack Kennedy were outsiders.” - Governor and Senator. Not what I, or most, would consider “outsiders.”

Even with Trumpster’s big win to tonight In NY he will still be short Delegates at the Convention.. After The Scolding Trump gave Chairman Reince Priebus I’m sure he will bend over backwards for Trump!!!!

And now my friends, onward to victory.

How so? He has been mathematically eliminated tonight.

Unless of course his target audience is delegates, as opposed to voters.

Scratch a Cruz delegate and underneath is a second-round Kasich nomination.

I am so excited to share with you what America has learned over the past few months.

And it has nothing to do with a politician tonight winning his home state.

That's his opening?

What a pathetic ass.

Cruz is that kid in high school who was smarter than almost everyone else. Technically he’s right 95% of the time, but you hated him anyway.

Because he’s a complete putz. No one likes him.

No one will like him.

He’s done. The only honorable thing left for him to do is drop out.

But he won’t. Because he’s a putz.

This is hilarious! By the way, Cruz will be in third place in Philadelphia as well. I saw a campaign rally he had earlier in the day where he couldn’t even get more than 2 dozen people to show up. Cruz will be betting everything on losing the state but stealing the unbound delegates like Hillary Clinton does with those Super Delegates. But Cruz needs 100 percent of all upcoming delegates, and Trump will be getting all of his in winner take all states like New Jersey, or places like Maryland, where Cruz’s unfavorables are in the 70 percent range, and Trump is beloved.

Cruz will be only a footnote in that “history in the making.” If he does the right thing, and suspends his campaign, he might still salvage his political career, if not, he’ll lose his senate seat in 2018, and disappear altogether.

Cruz took zero (0) delegates in NY.

He finished second in two counties (Warren in upstate NY and Kings County (Brooklyn), thanks to the Hasidic Jew vote). He was third or as we call it here LAST in a three-man race in the rest of the state.

Cruz finished second in two (2) of the 27 Congressional Districts.
CD 9 (thanks to the Orthodox vote)
CD 13 (thanks to likely the Hispanic vote)

He finished with 20% of the vote and LAST in just three other CDs 10, 15 and 23.
Ben Carson received more (invalid) votes in the Westchester portion of CD 16.

Trump took 90 of the 95 delegates in NY and a guy that has a 0.0% chance of winning on the first ballot took five delegates.

Goose egg Cruz is all but mathematically eliminated from notching the nomination on the first ballot....

But other than that, it was a great night for Cruz.... A great night.... Because of a SPEECH.

Talk about 3rd place participation trophies like Marco Rubio.....

Everyday that passes, Cruz makes it just a little bit harder to have to pull the lever for him in November if he should somehow become the nominee.

Like milk left in an unplugged refrigerator, as each day passes , he becomes more spoiled and rancid.

Is this satire? He gave a speech to like 22 people and then freaked on Hannitys interview...I think Cruz is pretty well burnt out now. The establishment has been the kiss of death for any candidate they’ve thrown their weight behind this year, and it’s taking its toll on Cruz.

That, and the Trump effect. He just keeps hammering away until his competition is now just an afterthought in the media.
