The feeling is mutual. I despise all the rude, arrogant, big-government, baby-killing liberals and RINOs in Democrat-loving states like NY too.
What I find amazing is how close all these polls are to each other.
Trump's numbers will probably move up to 50 or close to 50 by the end of the nomination fight. Cruz's big number in popular vote came primarily from Texas, but Trump dominated in many of the smaller states and the vast majority of the south.
I especially hate amnesty, "free-trade", globalist Freepers. They're the worst!
This 29 point lead is only New York. In the most recent national poll he is being devastated by only having a 19 point lead. So no wonder he has to cheat by suggesting that delegates that he wins should be people that represent him!
Now all Trump has to do is seal the deal and win the 27 districts. Or he can lose a bunch of those and whine about the process.
Hilarious coming from the Cruzlims who spend all day trashing Trump left and right and denigrating any state that you purists deem liberal. You guys find it so easy to support a guy who makes Bill Clinton look like a truth teller. So easy there Skywalker with your righteous indignation.
Just their talking up a contested convention with sophomoric glee and totally ignoring how this enables the GOPe agenda to silence the voice of the base and their mandate and vote, just shows how disgusting so many of these Cruzbots are who totally disrespect the Republican base majority, their voice, their vote, their mandate, and are in glee over fascist tactics just because their second rate candidate cannot win the votes and would be so un-American and so creepy, if they had their way it would totally destroy the Republican Party. A reformation for the Party is coming, and a root canal due for these types of stupid frogs.
Best case scenario, Cruz is probably looking at 1-2 delegates.
14 delegates. He can brag about winning but it’s not a game changer.
Diebold virus will put it down to 49 before results finish.
Cruz getting his Florida and Ohio #s. What a crap candidate.
Not to mention his taking the name of the Lord in “vain” to serve his own ends.
Maybe he now has figured out that whomever God is...it isn’t him.
Trump takes N.Y., Pa., N.J., Delaware, Maryland, Ct., R.I., all of which have BIG delegate prizes and Teddykins shall get NONE!
Can YOU "count noses", or are you stuck with COMMIE CORE MATH and still believing that Trump can be stopped? LOL
Oh and Cruz is NOT going to win the GIGANTIC PRIZE, California!
Stick all of THAT in your pipe and smoke it!
In. N.Y.? I doubt that.
I heard one guy in the Bronx was going to vote for Cruz, but than this guy walks his cat with a leash.
“If Trump were as popular in NY as everyone depicts him, he should be getting 60, 70, or even 80 percent. So the tells me almost half of NY’ers could care less of the Trumpster.”
How soon they forget.
Ted ‘won’ his home state of Texas with a measly 43.8% of the vote. He wound up with less than 50% on his own home turf. What’s that say about Ted’s popularity?
Ted Cruz will never do well in the NE where Trump is big, but he will win the Mountain states like CO and WY, along with places like Montana on June 7th.
Its about more than the GOPe since Cruz had said federal lands should be turned over to state control while Trump opposes such a notion.
If Trump can take all of NY, and then the following week the vast majority of:
Connecticut
Delaware
Maryland
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
...particularly PA, then he has a very, very good shot of closing this out before the convention...which is what he needs to do.
I expect Cruz, outside of NY on the 19th, is going to continue to accumulate a strong number of delegates...but if Trump can take all of NY (and it looks like he will) then Cruz will no longer have a path to the nomination on the first ballot.
At that point, IMHO, since the GOPe will only try and use Cruz to deny Trump and then discard him (Cruz) in the process, I hope Cruz throws in with Trump.
I say this as a Cruz supporter.
Right now, we need a united party and we need to absolutely ensure that the GOPe does not have a leg to stand on.
That will lead to victory in November.
Cruz can help make that happen by announcing May 1st that he is throwing in with Trump.
