Why would Trump, who is kicking ass, take advice from these losers? Rove must be coming to the conclusion Trump doesn’t need him and his BS focus groups, and is now trying to stay relevant.

Why would Trump, who is kicking ass

Trump is not actually "kicking ass". Back in late JAN, he was only supposed to lose 2 states (TX, MN). He has lost 10 so far. In the majority of states, the difference between himself and the other highest-polling candidate in the voting is significantly lower than the difference in the final poll. The worst falls were KS (30 pts) and ID (28 pt drop), and 11 other states were 7 points or more, and most of the final polls were taken within 1-2 days of the actual vote..

If it becomes a 2-man race, Trump may be in real danger. He has not topped 49.5% in ANY state, and if that held true in a 2-man race, he would lose every state. His best numbers are 49.3 in MASS, 47.3 in MISS, 45.9 in NV, 45.7 in FL, 42.4 in HI, and hasn't topped 41% in ANY other state. (Every Conservative state outside of the Old South has gone for Cruz- TX, ID, WY, OK, AK). Trump hasn't gotten 47% of available delegates, and he has not topped 50% in any state yet. This is not "kicking ass". It seems to be proof positive that he really does have a ceiling of about 49%... and if that is true, he is very very vulnerable... especially in the General against the Dem Corruption Machine.
