If we’re ultra-conservative w/ proportional contests, and assume Trump loses a number of states that he currently leads, he still gets ~1,300…

Sorry, but you are right to do so.
I’ve made a lot of enemies here in Trumpland, and I could stand Trump (barely) but I’ve never thought he could beat Hillary.
Polls aren’t always right but there’s not a single poll I’ve seen that doesn’t have Hillary beating Trump.
That would be a true nightmare.
But if Trump does win, we need to go all out for him. We cannot elect Hillary.
Cruz just finished his celebration speech for losing every state today but acting like he won. It was more embarrassing than Rubio’s concession speech.
I would love to see a trump/Cruz ticket... I think they will have to come together it’s neither get the required delegates.
“If he really wants to win, she is damaged goods, to put it mildly. Trump is a saint compared to her.”
Maybe, but someone told me somewhere that nice guys finish last.
He better be a cutthroat as Hildabeast will have a knife on is neck,
I hope so.
Amazing that you are spinning for Jeb ... so you are holding high the banner that the GOPe candidates supporters will go to Cruz ? I love it , you just proved our point about Cruz ...you are a Godsend to validating Trump as the only True Conservative ...please keep up the good work !
Whatever you're drinking... STOP!!!!
You've been sounding like a drunk sorority girl this entire thread.
More proof Cruz is a fraud and traitor . He's Canadian no wonder . he's not American
Iran is developing nukes because of t
he Corker bill which Cruz voted for (item #2 proves Cruz is a fraud)
#3 TPA which Cruz wrote an article full of lies pushing this crap that will destroy America
What is it with MO? How many elections has MO kept people up late, waiting for results?
Cruz would be scared of Hillary. Trump won’t. Big difference.
I might be missing something, but if you listen to the MSM, Trump is anything but a ‘Nice Guy”.
I really don’t think America will elect Ted Cruz. Too harsh, too strict, too much religion on his sleeve. Did anyone ever believe Mike Huckabee could be elected president. Truth be told: I like Huckabee, he was a good governor; I don’t like Ted Cruz.
Like Trump says,he holds the Bible in one hand while he lies and his campaign manager uses every dirty trick in the book. Jeff Roe is the Lee Atwater of Missouri politics...read up on him. He even pushed one of his clients opponent to suicide.
Fact is when Cruz ran for the senate in Texas his opponent’s campaign manager was Jeff Roe and Cruz called him the sleaziest dirtbag for all the dirty tricks he played on Cruz.
Cruz won his seat, but when it came running for president, the first guy he called was, you guessed it... Jeff Roe !!!
Right now he is probably stealing the state for Cruz, just like he did in Iowa. Cruz is a dirtball politician.
But most important, Clinton will destroy him.
I disagree. Even though they are “Trump delegates” they will not be Trump supporters. They are elected by the local republican party. How many Trump supporters do you think are going to be picked by the state party hacks? My guess is 0.
If Trump doesn’t lock it up in the primaries, he’s not going to be the nominee.
I'm just hoping they both haven't poisoned that well.
But Cruz does?
My only guess is ... look at mizzou and the lunacy on that campus .... perhaps it IS in the water.
the real problem is Trump is not attracting over 50% in many of these states.
Means most do not want him, although the same could be said of all.
__________________________________________
Not so! Just because socialist news said most don’t want Trump, doesn’t mean it’s true.
Every time one of the republican candidates drops out, the percentages of the remaining candidates change.
There’s math that can show what I’m trying to say, but you can watch the process continue. Now that Rubio is out, you will see the numbers shift again because there are only two republican candidates left.
There are also other variables which come into play. Western states are more likely to prefer a southwesterner over a northeasterner. Their populations are smaller, and their availability of information is less in many cases because many of the upcoming states are mountain states. Mountain states struggle with communications that we take for granted in more populated areas.
Also, we are going to be dealing with farmer/ranchers who don’t have time to sit around all day listening/watching the polls, the news, facebook et al. Their mentality is very different from the eastern mentality. What’s important to them is going to be a bit different. They are more likely to side with Cruz. He talks like them.
So, the dynamics are likely to change a bit for the next few rounds.
As Trump said in tonight’s speech, to get between 40-50% with four candidates to split the winnings with..is a YUGE accomplishment!
In a general election, the dynamics and variables will be even more different from what they are right now as people’s concerns shift yet again. Do the people want Shillary, or the communist? How will Shillary or the communist stack up against a man who’s shown himself to actually live the constitution, and not just preach it?
So no, it doesn’t mean that most don’t like him. You have to factor in many variables. The media isn’t going to do that.
I had a heck of a time just trying to find out about Trump’s victory speech..search engines didn’t want to list it. Then when I finally did find something, the focus was between Shillary, Bernie and Kasich, over and over ad nauseum as they avoided the elephant in the room; Trump’s major wins for the evening. Then when they did report on it, they kept that news as short as possible.
There are people who don’t want Trump in. But the biggest portion of those people are the GOPe, and the socialist factor ..the rats. The people who’ve been pulling the strings to sink this country, who’ve profited on the backs of the people they are trying to oppress and silence.
Shut off the news for a while. Clear your mind and take a fresh look at what’s actually happening...if you’re honest.
“Cruz can beat Hillary.
Trump cannot.”
I like Cruz, he’d be a great president, but there’s no way he beats Hillary in PA OH, or FL, Trump does.
Go check the polls, and think about which candidate appeals to the voters of those states.
“People are “scared” of Trump. He’s Hitler reincarnated.’
Are you happy now, spreading Dem propaganda for Hillary?
Most of us see through this,
Just recently a bunch of people showed up at a Trump rally wearing Nazi arm bands. It turned out they were a bunch of far LEFT Hillary supporters, trying to smear Trump by implication.
Trump takes NY, also
