That is absolutely true. The question is whether any of it makes a difference to voters on the fence.
70% or so don’t support DT. Is it possible that as their candidates drop out they will not go DT?
85 percent don’t support Cruz, about 95 percent don’t support Bush, 90 percent don’t support Rubio.
How come I never see anyone siting these stats, only tirelessly repeating “70 percent don’t support Trump.”
The thing is, once Trump takes 3 or 4 out of the first 4 contests, people aren’t going to bother voting or caucusing for people who stand no chance of winning, so they’ll either stay home, or switch their vote, most likely to someone they know is going to win.
It's entirely possible that those who are not for Trump now may never be.
We'll know the night of March 15th.
It solidified my vote for Trump. Where were all these pure conservatives banding together when the GOP utterly screwed McDaniel in the Mississippi election?
America supports Mr. Trump. There is no denying you the next President will be.
No, the National Review will end up supporting either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders if Trump gets the nomination.
99.9% of American’s have no idea who the Gang of 22 are.
They just threw the kitchen sink at Trump and guess what, they relegated themselves to the dustheap of history.
Proven arrogant and irrelevant. It’s like it was a triple dog dare by the leader of the retards, groupthink kicked in and now they are on global display as high resolution ass cracks.
Happy am I. (poke)

It’s apparent from the diehard Cruz supporters on FR that if Cruz doesn’t win, they will NOT vote. They’ll instead stay home and have a little pity party.
Trump supporters (including me) OTH will gladly vote for Cruz should things take a turn. We live in the real world.
“Is it possible that as their candidates drop out they will not go DT?”
Absolutely possible. I’d guess 95% will vote for DT over Hillary, the other 5% will not vote.
National Review just told those true conservatives that Trump is okay.
D’Souza asks if National Review would have done the same type of pieces about Cruz, whom they regard as extreme, but he misses the point. Nobody questions Cruz’ GOP background nor his conservative bona fides, and the point of the National Review articles is that Trump has none of these.
I honestly don’t know about the 70% including myself who don’t support Trump. I’m not wild about Cruz, not because he’s not conservative enough, but because he somehow seems to have trouble getting things done in DC. But I’d vote for him. I wouldn’t vote for Trump, though, because aside from the fact that I don’t think he has any idea of what the job entails (he’s basing himself on the autocratic Obama model, but no GOPer could ever get away with that) he really has no conservative ideas and doesn’t even share most GOP platform positions.
I also think that another thing that must be borne in mind is that about 1/3 of open GOP primary voters are Dems, and they may be voting for Trump now (he’s very popular with Dems) but they’ll vote for Bernie if it comes to that.
