Ted Cruz has been as perfectly truthful as a candidate can be. No other candidate in this race can approach the standard he has set.
Your lying attacks are disgusting.
.
Trump knows the writing on the wall. Time to stop “allocating resources” to his lost cause. Get behind Cruz. Cruz might even pick Trump to build the wall... but has to compete. No more crony capitalism for Trump.
Look around fool and maybe you can find a clue about your guy.

Fool describes you almost as perfectly as LIAR does.

We mere savages in mere flyover country are not important to New Yorkers, even supposed Republican ones.
Iowa +1 =We don’t need to win Iowa to win
Iowa +2 =They stoled it from us. Wall-um Wall-um, Wall-um. My primary! Cruuzzz! Baggins!!
From there, how many other last place finishes can he obtain in the five remaining April primaries? Probably three: Delaware, Connecticut and Rhode Island. I'm give him second in PA and MD.
You have it half a backwards.
Much more truthful than Cruz has ever been by far.
My guess is that if Cruz gets 38% of the remaining delegates, it precludes Trump from getting 1237 bound delegates before the convention. That sounds about right, it would be the difference between how many Trump has to tget, to get 1237 (62% sounds about right) and 100% or all of the remaining delegates.
You can keep saying all you want. It incorrectly implies that Cruz needs more than 38% of the remaining delegates for the pathway to nomination.
And that does not even include the hundreds of uncommitted delegates.
Look, I concede Trump appeals to wider group people than Cruz. Also Trump made cruz more conservative on trade and immigration.
But this argument comes off like a high pressure time share sales effort....
i dont understand how any serious candidate can ‘throw away’ or ignore potential delegates
especially a candidate with DT’s resources (like, its not like he couldn’t afford to pay a brief visit in his airplane and/or send someone to WY to lobby on his behalf, or whatever might be required to pick up a few more delegates)
there’s something wrong in the DT campaign
looking for it. I think I saw it on 538 or national review.
It has to do with what Trump will be deprived of in WV, PA and upstate NY.
Nebraska, Indiana, Oregon, Wash, MT , SD and CA
Yes , thank you.
That would be Cruz and Kasich combined. Every delegate Kasich can pick up in the NE also helps keep Trump under 1237.
I dont get why Donald pulled palin back from participating in WY.
Very little cost to Donald in terms of time. Looks to me to be a ‘face’ game.

What part of “I am NOT saying Cruz is going to get to 1237 or that he is beating Trump or any nonsense like that” did you not understand? It is not a “silly game” to try to stop Trump from getting 1,237: it is the whole game. If Trump did get to 1,237, its over for Cruz. If he doesn’t, Cruz is still very much in contention. Can’t you just accept a simple, intellectually and mathematically honest analysis?
What do you think happens if Trump gets to the convention with 1,050 or 1,100 delegates and Cruz has 800+ delegates? You think its automatically going to Trump? I don’t see what special advantage he has once the balloting begins. On the contrary, there are a lot of indications that Cruz’s delegate groundwork gives him a strong advantage in that setting.
i can only GUESS (with zero information to back this up) that someone was/is sabotaging DT’s campaign from within
(would not be the first time such a thing has happened)
just a guess, tho.
I think Cruz honestly believes he is the frontrunner in this race and is going to be President. Meanwhile, the GOPe is laughing behind his back that he actually believes it. I also think that Cruz is on the autism spectrum and he suffers from mental illness. In his speech at the Gala where no one was listening, Cruz continued like he was delivering the Gettysburg Address. It was strangely disconnected from reality like he was living in his own delusional world. Scary stuff.
