I saw the YouTube video about that , the evidence was very compelling, especially the lettering of the ships name that’s been exposed on the ship on the ocean floor still referred to as Titanic.
It’s not the Titanic.
And Cruz isn’t a conservative
Love BEN. He and Trump have been friends for decades
What a joke. This rigged crap reminds me of when I coached baseball. We would play in a hostile town. I knew the Umps were crooked— in fact, I knew they were paid off. I told my teams on several occasions— We have to whip this team AND THESE UMPIRES!! We stole bases like bandits and hit like thunder. We would watch those lying umps make their crap calls turn white and then scored more. As Trump says in the boxing world “ Knock the SOB out — these the judges can’t cheat” GO TRUMP!!
If they are purging people...that’s all.
The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.

VA had a primary March 1. Trump won, but not by much. Rubio was the Chosen that day, so won a lot of support in Northern VA where the GOPe live and play when not in DC. Today’s vote was for the ‘at large’ delegates.
There’s still a good bit of anger in VA’s Republican circles towards Trump for donating to McAuliffe in his gubernatorial race against then-AG Ken Cuccinelli who led the anti-Obamacare litigation to the SCOTUS. Long memories here. AND we in VA are stuck with McAuliffe who just restored rights to 206,000 felons who can now vote for Hillary in November. (I really don’t think the Trump donation swung the race one way or another, but still doesn’t help his standing with those who follow these things and who had a lot at stake in seeing Ken Cuccinelli win that election)
Will be interesting to see what happens next tuesday, when Cruz will lose in Indiana, continue? Its all about those puppet strings attached to him, they won’t allow him to quit, save face, try again in 4 years, no Cruz is now a kamikaze pilot heading for the Trump battleship.

“Fox trumpeting on about Cruz...Cruz...Cruz. I just don’t turn them on any more. And I doubt they will ever go after Hitlery in any meaningful way...like they have Trump.”
I ask you: Do you see Dana PeRino voting for Trump or for Hillary? Krauthammer, Rove, Will, Kelly, Shemp? FNC is just another liberal Media outlet staffed with 95% liberals.
it’s the Fairfax County wine and government cheese set
Even so, Cruz got just 17% of the vote in the Virginia primary, and finished a distant third to Trump and Rubio. But yes, I agree, McAuliffe is rotten, and always has been.
don’t sweat the small stuff folks
there will be no contested convention
10 states and 236 delegates to go, and Cruz will be but a bad memory
So what’s the deal on Trump and donations to people like Terry McAuliffe? Why would he donate to the Governor’s race in Virginia, and especially why would he donate to the Democrat?
It’s seems like Trump gets pass after pass on these things and his explanation is “I donate to lots of people.”
Yeah - and lots of them are Democrats and I’d like to know why?
That Virginia Governor’s race wasn’t 20 years ago either. It was less than three years ago. McAuliffe won 47 % - 45 % with six percent going to the Libertarian.
That was a case when we needed all hands on deck.
Nope, Hillery’s thier Girl.
burocircy = bureaucracy.
Note that Ted Cruz lost every single county in Virginia and would clearly lose Virginia in the General Election. Here is how Virginians actually voted:

Carson..........60,228............6%
Delegates 49 17 16 8 5 3
Trump: 49 delegates × 356,840 ÷ 1,025,452 = 17.051 delegates. Round to 17.
Rubio: 49 delegates × 327,918 ÷ 1,025,452 = 15.669 delegates. Round to 16.
Cruz: 49 delegates × 171,150 ÷ 1,025,452 = 8.178 delegates. Round to 8.
Kasich: 49 delegates × 97,784 ÷ 1,025,452 = 4.672 delegates. Round to 5.
Carson: 49 delegates × 60,228 ÷ 1,025,452 = 2.878 delegates. Round to 3.
All Congressional and At-Large National Convention delegates to are bound for the first ballot at the Republican National Convention.
The public preference step binds most of the delegates on the first ballot at the convention (Florida binds its delegates for three ballots).
At any rate, this isn't a "primaryless win," this is a condition where Cruz prevails in the "second ballot race," but not in the "first ballot race." There was a primary.
Colorado and Wyoming were "primaryless wins," because those delegates will vote for Cruz on the first and subsequent ballots.
