Death throes are always unseemly. Hilarious that the solution to Trump is Cruz. Die, modern GOP, die. Trump may have been an interloper, but Cruz is precisely what you are, and that, in turn, is why you're a disgrace. Hit the bricks.

I can't say I see the argument from Trump apologists who argue that a Trump nom or presidency will lead to rebuilding the GOP. Trump's success is a new model for aspiring politicians that's so easy a caveman can do it. 1, publicly say a lot of outlandish racist ****. 2, dominate social media. 3, if news sags, see 1.

Well, unless you think that frothing racism is the change the GOP needs, I guess.

No, you need to be rich and famous to give your racism the hint of some class and sophistication. Like buying any other crap Trump sells.

Trump just gave possibly the most TRUMP speech yet, surprised there aren't reactions in here.

this was odd because while ppl say this is evidence of trump's recent losses his odds are back to 1.53. no idea what was going on the markets earlier. people are jumpy i suppose

Will Cruz and the GOP keep trotting out Rubio, or will they meet Trump in the streets?

Here's why LA is relevant:

Early votes:
Trump 46.7%
Cruz 22.9%
Rubio 20.1%
Kasich 3.7%

Election day votes:
Cruz 40.9%
Trump 40.5%
Rubio 9.4%
Kasich 6.8%

Most important things to me moving forward are:
1. Do the neverTrumpers start voting strategically and can we expect outperformance from the #2 candidate in each state?
2. If Rubio is legit done does his support move to Cruz?

trump is overpriced at 1.5, should be closer to 1.7

If Rubio is done like 80% should go to Cruz and maybe 20% to Kasich.

Kasich is probably going to carry Ohio which is a general election swing state. Rubio is going to win 0 swing states. That + underpants gnomes = Kasich compromise candidate!

Kasich probably wins his home state and there's a lot of upper Midwest states he can do well in. Rubio is gonna get his perception as a viable candidate crushed if he loses Florida.

Not a joke.

By the way I was one of 6 Hillary voters verses 37 Bernie voters in my tiny precinct in caucuses today, in a county that went 80% Bernie and 20% Hillary.

Jesus H. ****ing Christ.

edit - with more numbers in it's more like 70/30

Trumpite on CNN: this accusation that Trump wants to prevent every single person of a certain religion from entering this country is just outrageous and prosperous! Non-crazy person: Um, that is exactly what he proposed, I didn't make it up Trumpite: um, yeah, but only temporarily, Muslims are dangerous, okay!

I've never voted. Either I'll keep that up or I'll go 3rd party

I was serious when I said I think the EV is way higher going 3rd party. Good luck waitin on Trump to change **** tho lol he will wreck it all down for sure guys

I know you guys have all the lol for 3rd party doing zero, and you know what I agree, but that's still the best option and that's even if I assumed 0 downside for trump.

****ing cult simps.

CNN moderator: well the polls show that stance isn't hurting him
Non-crazy person: yeah, in the Republican primary, and shame on these people by the way, I don't care how popular the position is!
CNN moderator: whoa! Things are getting HEATED here, will calm things down here and be back after these messages.
