Only slightly because like Trump McClintock was leading in the primary. Cruz rarely breaks double digits yet seems to be the only one who can win. I trust neither of them but Trump has the least to gain by wining so maybe he is trying to do something real before cashing in.
I was a big critic of "The fumble mouthed blowhard that can't speak in complete sentences" when he was talking about entering the race. I felt he could never perform in the debates suggesting that once he got on stage with Carly, who does speak in complete sentences, people would reject the blowhard. I completely missed the reaction to Trump and I have correctly picked every presidential race since Eisenhower.
Cruz is just not likable and is going nowhere in my opinion, even if he wins the primary, even worse he will accomplish nothing if he wins the general.
I have been called to task for suggesting the only way out of this mess is to have a leader just like the one we have who will go around congress, because congress is not at all opposed to what the resident has done. Trump will likely force them to rediscover the power they claim they do not now have.
My prediction now is that Trump will win the Presidency barring any catastrophe either natural or un-natural.
That's a stretch when you attribute the outcome to my doings.

Oh please. People at that level are still ambitious. It's all about winning the game.

That is a serious point, an observation that I shared until I started to get his sense of humor.

I think that's a stretch too. Ever since the collapse of the Brettonwoods agreement, Congress has been all about throwing its powers to the President.

I would add "planned."
