That’s what happens when Republicans vote in Republican contests. Notice Trump wins the states that democrats can vote in.

If you think you are going to win the Presidency with only GOP votes you are delusional.

We shall see what happens in Kentucky tonight.

A caucus limited to only Republican voters.

“Notice Trump wins the states that democrats can vote in.”

That’s a feature, not a bug. Democrat candidates have won the popular vote in 5 out of the last 6 elections.

It is very important to have closed contests as Safe Zones for those who can't handle something similar to a general election. They give people time to share feelings and be sheltered from the world. I support them.

“That’s what happens when Republicans vote in Republican contests. Notice Trump wins the states that democrats can vote in.”

Not true. Four years ago a large number of Democrats and Independents signed up to become new Republicans and vote in our Republican caucus. These NEW Republicans all voted for George Romney and Ron Paul. Nonetheless, a plurality of us old Republicans voted for Newt Gingrich in opposition to George Romney. Based on the precinct vote in the caucus Newt Gingrich was entitled to almost half of the delegates to the county convention, but that did not happen. The Romney and Paul supporters jumped up and volunteered to be delegates before anyone else knew what was going on. I ended up being the only Newt Gingrich delegate from our precinct, despite the precinct vote authorizing him to receive almost half of the delegates. This disparity between what the voters chose versus the delegates selected seems to happen all too often in caucus elections, leaving the voters disenfranchised yet again in yet another way.

Which tells you Trump can win the general election and Cruz cannot.
