On page 16, NR tells me that Trump is George Wallace. On page 18, there’s a drawing of Trump carrying a club and dragging a woman by the hair. I haven’t scanned the issue to count up the occurrences of “Hitler” and “Fuhrer” yet.

Indiana is not going to save Cruz, it just shows how desperate he is.

q. Why Cruz is going all in on Indiana?

a. No one in the SOUTH wants him. No one in the NORTH wants him. And that's pretty much the yin-yang of politics. What other flavor is there? He's running out of country in which to co-opt Boss Hogg party fat-cats and hacks.

Seriously, haven't read article YET, but it is certainly because he has a cheating angle of SOME kind, or bribed or blackmailed delegates lined up.

The book about the Cruz and his cheating in the 2016 primaries will be epic. Put Nixon, the Clintons and Algore together, throw in Richard Daly and Huey Long, and Cruz is twice the liar and cheater. The "How to" book will sell many millions of copies.

There once was a liar named Ted
All kinds of schemes in his head
He thought he could cheat
And couldn't be beat
Only to be Trumped in the end.

Cruz is irrelevant at this point.

Psychology is so easy to figure out on simple people.

Cruz lacks a “gut”. He doesn’t even know it. He thinks he is golden. His decisions are formulaic and miss the big picture. Very typical ivy leaguer. No common sense. No context. No good judgement. Doesn’t know how things really work and most of all doesn’t know the importance of how he is perceived. Sure he might have a very minuscule chance to gain the nom. but he will be absolutely HATED whether he prevails or not. He will blow up the entire party and blow up himself and surely lose. While being an intelligent guy on paper, in all practicality he might as well be an imbecile. If he continues, he will only accomplish 180 degrees opposite his stated goals.

Then why do Trumpbots feel the urgency to stop him?

Why is it that I can almost always guess one’s sign on date before I even look?

TED CRUZ would love to debate Donald Trump, but Donald is very afraid to reveal his low-energy lack of knowledge.

Yeah, because 10 years and 10 weeks are the same thing.

To some of us, yes. Attack the content of the comment no the ‘born on date’.

I’ll bet a $25 donation to FR that Trump takes Indiana. I live here and all the indications are its his state.
