Yes. In June Trump decided to become a conservative Republican.

That is not encouraging to me.

Cruz did not defend the thugs in Chicago and that was his first point of criticism in the controversy. Like it or not, Trump has followed Cruz’s advice and toned down his outrageous prompts encouraging his supporters to attack the protesters. It was dumb what Trump was advising and he now does not do that.

If you look at the Cruz map, he has won states all across the nation. The South will vote Republican. It does not matter.

Cruz actually understands how elections work. Trump does not.

He thinks anytime he loses the game is rigged. There are rules throughout the process— including the general.

Who is going to sit down and explain the electoral college system to Trump?

Is he really just going to bluster his way past that?

Not true. Trump since the 1980s have been making speeches about how the U.S. was getting screwed on trade deals. Go to YouTube and look it up.

Nobody said Trump was a conservative. But he's better: He's a nationalist who will put America first.

That is not encouraging to me.

But you have no issues with Republicans in Washington who has contributed to the conditions now, right?

Rafael Cruz gave a general condemnation of violence and proceeded to blame Trump's "campaign rhetoric" for starting the violence. So, he sided with the thugs instead of his fellow candidate who's ass he kissed profusely back in June.

The South is not enough though. Cruz cannot win Rust-belt Midwestern states. And again, Cruz did not even beat Trump in the South! He's simply not a national candidate, who will win equal or lessor states that Romney won in 2012.

Cruz actually understands how elections work. Trump does not.

That's a non-sequitur. Trump is bringing new voters into his campaign and into the GOP.

He thinks anytime he loses the game is rigged. There are rules throughout the process— including the general.

Part of that is political. Trump traded the CO delegates for decisive wins in the NE. So, he's playing politics byrailing against the machine.

No one needs to. Trump has won the optics and cemented his role as an outsider.
