    what smells like horseshit is when Trumptards cry foul, but then Chump and Chumpia's are always crying over something or one, "its his fault he started it".....

    Obviously (as usual) Trump and his jock strap supporters know nothing of Luzianna politics. Welcome to de bayou Chump, where well known people disappear in the dark of night, infested gator bait waters.....and no trace is ever laid or found....

    No. Everyone knew he'd win NE States, it's been factored in. This is his high water mark. Don't buy the bull the left is selling.

    He's got to run the table and he's not winning Indiana. No Indy, no 1237...no 1237 means Cruz wins on second ballot.

    Couple of more observations:
    Trump currently has 950 delegates,
    Cruz 560,
    Kasich (lol) still has less than Rubio and has kept his sterling record of winning ONE state in tact.
    There are 622 remaining primary delegates- Trump needs 287.
    Cruz' "turning point" of Wisconsin seems like a distant memory..…with the help of the union busting scab Gov Walker and home based likewise anti-labor speaker of The House Ryan.
    Talk about a couple of guys who'll need more than prayers if they ever ran for POTUS.
    lmao

    Trump cleaned Cruz' and the rest of the field's clock in the south including Florida while Cruz barely got 44% of his home state.
    Trump got over 60% of HIS home state while Cruz was laughed out of the place. Kasich won HIS home state (with 47% ) with Trump finishing a respectable 2nd with 35.6%.
    Trump IMO will carry Texas in the general election vs Hillary, will bring Ohio, Pennsylvania, NY, NJ and certainly Florida (which has gone Blue the past two Pres elections) into play.

    In this latest "Super Tuesday" slaughter by Trump - he has gotten no less than 54.4% IN EACH STATE with the runner up reaching a high water mark of 28.5% followed by 24.4% then lower, and lower ect.......
    ....how's that for quirky? lol

    Must admit, Cruz is excellent at winning delegates in states (2) where the population wasn't allowed to vote. He really is on the ball!
    Otherwise, Trump has won almost three times as many states as Ted.
    Too bad Cruz just hasn't been quite smart enough, had the right stuff and message to gain more delegates the good old fashion way, by winning more votes and states.

    Be interesting to see if that stupid guy Trump is able to somehow find a way to get the necessary dozen or two delegates he might need IF he falls short of the 1237 before the convention - after all, he claims he has experience, savvy and the know how to "get things done" and negotiate.

    Just two questions for the seasoned pundits:
    Anyone have a ballpark figure of just how many American jobs are being lost as a result of Obama's TPP "deal" which was endorsed by Senator Cruz- And how many jobs were lost including OHIO from NAFTA which Congressman Kasich voted for?


    derp!

    Like a skipping record...Trumptard Graffiti, is worse than listening to the 17 minute version of "In a gadda da vidda"....

    Collective Bargaining was for sweatshops. The only candidate who runs one is Chump with his Mexican Clothing wear, imported of course, another beneficiary of NAFTA....

    ...^^^ yup, gotta love the misdirection, as well as the ignorance of the actual facts. I really wish people would take the time to research before spouting half baked assertions.

    ... and I'm loling @ implying Cruz was the only Senator who voted for the TTP deal...or that Kasich was the only one who voted for NAFTA.

    ...also laughing at the fact that someone still cannot grasp that how many states someone wins has nothing to do with the nomination and that unless a candidate has 1237 delegates before the convention, how many delegates he currently has is moot...it's a simple concept that has been pointed out multiple times...I'm not sure why it is so hard to grasp.

    ...Trump sweeping last night was not at all a surprise...but what is concerning to me is the margin by which he won.

    Yep,like a broken record:
    Trump is a chump,
    ...people who would vote for Trump are Trumptards,

    Pictures of Trump with a Hitler mustache. (speaking of Graffiti, lmao).

    Who's the only candidate who actually defended a foreign Govt (China) which wrongfully harmed (stolen blueprints) from an American business? - CRUZ !

    http://www.burntorangereport.com/di...ting-sketchy-clients-while-running-for-senate

    And of course the old "the Trump train will derail" refrain.
    I'm sure the people who repeated this (rolling my eyes chuckling) were expecting it to happen after the 2nd or 3rd vote of a contested Convention.....or during the general election vs Hillary?
    ........never during the primaries.....may....lmao

    Keep praying. Lol

    ...I noticed there was no factual argument to disprove Matt's destruction of your previous faux pas...but hey, when all else fails, try misdirection...it's very compelling.

    http://www.newyorker.com/humor/daily-shouts/sample-questions-from-the-trump-university-final-exam

    "It’s a very small case, it’s a civil case. It’s not a big deal"...
    Sound's like small potatoes all over again, or another USFL abortion...

    "Engaging in specific fraudulent, deceptive and illegal acts.”
    http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/controversy-surrounding-trump-university/story?id=37374821

    another typical Chump school boy lie- like Donald saying "I never filed bankruptcy".

    How about: "I think they gave us a different [grade] before we gave them information. After they got the information, we got an A," Trump said.

    In truth:
    The BBB has since released a statement saying the company's grade was not always an A. "Over the years, the company’s BBB rating has fluctuated between an A+ and a D-," the agency's statement reads.

    a walking disaster....

    btw- the graffiti scribbler, never could answer prior Q's, and those attempted= incoherent rambling, too similar to Ted Kaczynski musings...

    How about one of your funny corny childish temper tantrum pictures of Trump with a clown hat or Hitler mustache?

    Yeah, that's the ticket!

    Trump- 950 delegates and counting.
    622 still up for grabs.

    He'll probably also pick up at least one or two dozen more from Pennsylvania districts when the dust settles over there.

    Don't sweat it- you can always vote for Hillary in the general election to help keep Trump the Chump out of the White House.

    Incidently, jmho- by the time the Convention rolls around, Cruz' and Kasich's favorability "ratings" may have taken a serious hit in the opinion of real voters with their cheesy overt operation of teaming up trying to prevent Trump from reaching 1237 and hoping they can get a pass at the convention.
    They're acting like and campaigning like losers.....are these the type of confident "leaders" you have in mind? lol

    "Teddy (FAR right) Robot"
    and "Johnny ONE State".
    Hillary and her machine will eat them for breakfast.

    ...lol...pot meet kettle.

    ...you're certainly in no position to criticize someone for posting childish pictures...and still nothing of substance to dispute what Matts said...again, very compelling.

    ...Cruz is rumored to be announcing Carly Fiorina as his running mate...I don't know what to make of this.

    ...I assume this has to do with garnering the women's vote because Trump has completely alienated them...plus she can help take down Clinton.

    At this point it's like shinning the silverware while the Titanic is sinking.

    ...yeah, needless to say, for Cruz to turn the tide he really needs to carry Indiana.
