To think that two lightweights out of the race, for a 3 full months before the convention, are going to take the nomination away from someone within 100 or less of 1237 is about as absurd as it gets.

Our nominee has already been selected by the people. What happens thereafter is in the hands of those who accept a candidate being a tool for the party they've schit talked for 12 years now.

The hypocrites who infect this site should be ashamed.

Trump winning on the first ballot, if not before, is going to create a posting heaven day for me.

Can't wait to taunt the retards.

Really, now, why would he anyway? Trump's an old fat guy who doesn't live a healthy lifestyle and is married to some slavic hottie so he could stroke out any minute. Then we'd be left with Gasich and I don't want him either.


Cruz is a walking VD petri dish. He's got that same look in his eye that Capone did when he was ate up with syphilis



If you want someone who looks unhealthy, take a look at Trump around the eyes.
Trump is 69. Cruz is 45.


That not unhealthy, thats a Clint Eastwood Deserve Got Nothing to Do with it Stare


Here he is telling telling Cruz he better get a shot of penicillin before his wang rots off

People like us argue about this stuff on the web and get irritated with one another but I haven't lost a job due to globalization, nor seen the town I grew up in become a shell of its former self like a lot of these folks. I know your comment was meant to be edgy and biting but consider some of these peoples' situation.

And no, I'm not saying that all makes it right. But it does make clear the explosive nature of this situation.


When you and anyone else who believes they are getting screwed "by years and years of free trade/globalization" go buy commodity items, do you always buy the most expensive versions of whatever you're looking for?

Do you shop at WalMart?

Are you buy chance a union member and/or a union supporter?

Do you own stock in large corporations or shares of large cap mutual funds?

Serious questions.

Trump is preparing to hammer Cruz and the GOPe hard when Cruz reaches the point where there's not enough delegates left for him to win the nomination yet stays in the race.

That's what he meant when he called Cruz a "Trojan Horse".

,..and actually, I strongly suspect that Cruz knows that there's no way for him to get the nomination even in the event of a brokered convention.

He's just throwing a tantrum and wants to end Trump's nomination even if it means a victory for Hillary,....just like all the rest of the GOP establishment.

So you folks might as well save your "Are you going to vote for Cruz" stuff.

That train leaves the station the instant there's no longer enough delegates for Cruz to win yet he stays in the race, anyway,...which he will,.....in order to get Hillary elected.

The Clinton Foundation must be contributing to the Cruz campaign.

They owe Cruz a lot.

That way, if Trump should happen to be the republican nominee- and I think it is critical that Donald Trump not become president- we will only be stuck with a one term Democrat. Fiscally, it doesn't matter because virtually every president since Eisenhour has been a deficit spender. From a social and a national security standpoint, this election process couldn't be going much worse.


Ha,it was said Berry would be a one term President.That really worked out well when the RNC keeps sending in the Party`s most unappealing Candidate possible.They aint in it to win it.

Trump could have a picture of Cruz whacking off in church and nobody would believe it was real after all the lies Trump has told. Except Trump's supporters of course...they'll believe anything.

I'm willing to bet even the other Cruzettes will agree with it. There is no reason for them to do so - even if they aren't excited about Hillary, Cruz doesn't offer them anything.
Cruz will tell them what he offers them over Hillary and some will agree with him. He's a very smart guy and thinking people are getting tired of hearing, "it will be great".

I didn't and don't expect you Trumpettes to agree with me but you asked for a non-Trump bashing response and I gave you one. Mostly. Afterall, you actually support Trump after all the nonsense he's pulled and said, so rational thought is precluded. A true testimony to blind faith, or at lease blind. It's not really necessary to bash Trump anyway. He does a great job of that himself but you guys always want to spin his nonsense as to what he meant rather than what he said or did.

With 66% of Wisconsin R voters saying Trump does not support their values and 47% of women saying no how, no way, would they vote Trump it's just more proof, on an already foregone conclusion, that Trump has done his job being himself and if he is the R nominee a demoncrap will win. And that is what you want for America. Telling.


No one will hear what Cruz says.They will just watch in amazement as he slurps snot.

The DNC and Clinton are spending their money only attacking Trump for obvious reasons.

Trump out and Cruz in is a win for the DNC.

Unlike the GOPe though, the DNC figured out the reality a couple months ago.

Now, they have Cruz spending GOP money for the DNC cause.

Exit Polling showed 66% of R voters stated Trump did not share their values (just heard this on Rush). Somebody splain how we get through this...


After the R political machine and talk radio got done whipping their voters into a frenzy, this is the result. Damaged goods.

Did any of you see how snide the WI state political commentators and radio hosts were about shutting down Trump and is supporters? Now combine that with the fact that they don't have strong support for Cruz either (13% strong support, the weakest of all candidates last night).

That is the Republican machine "take my ball and go home" strategy to lose in November. Keep the leading guy out, back a guy nobody wants, and make the voters do what we say in November, or not and lose anyway.


And I'm supposed to support that nonsense? For the first time ever, I am considering sitting out.

No plan to win for the R's, just a lot of voters that they won't support or listen to. I'm talking to you Cruz guys too. They don't want him either even though they can use him now as a tool to subvert the voters and poison the well of candidates.

What am I supposed to be saving here?

And they look so proud to be doing it...


AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!! shocked

You still believe Cruz has a chance. Talk about believing anything.

Yes I do realize that. But the way you worded the question, combined with the fact that one of Trumps campaign planks is to institute tariffs on low cost countries as a "remedy" for trade imbalance, gave the impression you agree with the Trump position on trade. I apologize if I'm mistaken in that assumption.

My point in raising those questions is that one can't have it both ways. Consumers can't expect for everyone to have great paying jobs AND habitually buy the cheapest crap they can find. I work in manufacturing, so I would definitely love to see lots of manufacturing jobs return to the US, but there were valid reasons they left the US in the first place. You don't improve the situation by selectively imposing tariffs on countries as Trump says he wants to do. All that does is drive up the price of all goods and screws companies who do business overseas by changing the rules in the middle of the game, further leading to job losses. Companies have a fiduciary responsibility to their stockholders to maximize their return, which means if it's too expensive to manufacture goods domestically, they must find less expensive means to do so. Consumer habits and .gov policies drive those decisions.

I don't want any POTUS deciding who companies can and can't do business with. First of all, the constitution doesn't grant that power to the president, and I don't want any man to have that power. The only way to bring more jobs back to America AND ensure good paying jobs is to make it more attractive to do business in America by removing excess burdensome regulations and providing tax incentives for doing so, NOT by instituting protectionist policies that include tariffs. Companies don't pay taxes, they merely pass on their increased costs to the consumer in increased costs of their goods and services.
