You know who needs to drop out? North Carolina.
They have no chance of winning against a streaking Syracuse Orange. So, why bother even showing up. Just give up and head home. Why even bother traveling to Houston?
Make any sense to you?
Well, it doesn’t make any sense to me either. Only a jackass would suggest that one side in a contest should preemptively give up, disappoint their supporters, and make a mockery of the entire process.
In fact, I think that the only people who could seriously entertain such a suggestion are those who doubt their favorite can win. I certainly think that is true of the Trump fans. I think that more and more they are coming to see him as most of the voters see him: as a person with a deeply flawed psyche and a person addicted to juvenile jackassery. A person completely unsuitable to serve as President.
If Trump wants it, he has to win it. Just like Ted Cruz or anyone else. It isn’t going to be handed to him, and neither he nor his supporters should expect otherwise.
So to Trump and all his supporters; Put on your big boy pants and play the game out to the finish. And stop your endless whining and complaining about not being treated fairly. When has Trump himself ever been fair? He has lied, twisted, dissembled, distorted and slandered his way to where he is now: on the brink of defeat.
So, either fight back or go home, but please don’t demand quarter from your opponents, especially after the last few days.
Total kudos.
Beautifully put. You said it all.
And Cruz didn't even get close to 88% in Texas, his home state: nor in the Deep South among the Evangelicals whom his campaign message was crafted to attract. And that was before the Cuban Mistress Crisis.
So now the campaign moves to PA, NY, NJ: think a Texan who is even mocked as a hypocritical adulterer on *conservative* sites -- let alone being called a snake-handler on liberal sites -- is going to have the ghost of a prayer there?
Cruz is a sellout, a troll. His wife has him by the short hairs now, ever since the Enquirer article, even if unfounded. You really think he can get re-elected in Texas once he loses the White House bid?
But Texans seem to value their own state above all else.
Right
Cruz has a right to attempt to seek the presidency as much as Trump, Kasich, Clinton, Yeb, Sanders...
If this were a two team or two person event I could concur with your post. However, this is like North Carolina and Syracuse playing to the end of the game but neither reach 100 points so the GOPe says we have to put x team as the winner that lost earlier in the tournament because we need a team that can score 100 points”
(Yes I know NC did but using them anyway for the analogy).
