Paul Ryan, Republicans Will Work With Next GOP President
Being holier than thou while your campaign staff bears false witness is a major turn off. At this point, Rubio is a more viable alternative to Trump than Cruz.
“I think that’s been pretty clear now, The problem is that they’re divided up among four people…in SC it was five people”. We’re smart and loyal, he says to his kindred spirits, We’re just proud Americans with common sense.
“I’ve never dealt with anyone who lies like he does”, Trump said.
In order to win the Republican nomination, a candidate must gain at least 1,237 delegates. (That is remarkable in and of itself.) This is why Trump announced a stop in Fort Worth on Friday and Rubio announced a rally in Dallas the same day.
“If he can win two-thirds of the delegates, then you’re not really going to be able to take it away from him at the convention”, Graham said. “He tells you what the result is going to be, but he refuses to outline how we’re going to achieve these things, and voters deserve to know that”.
Trump said he is now “winning the country”, and he will pick up more Republican supporters as his rivals drop out of the race.
Marco Rubio is showing off his Spanish while campaigning in Houston – but ducking an unexpected question put to him in the language. Cruz had to fire the public face of his campaign, communications manager Rick Tyler, for social media posts falsely alleging Rubio mocked the Bible.
The GOP race is Trump’s to lose. Though Trump has won three straight contests, Cruz is well organized in Southern and border states next week.
So far, Nevada has seen the biggest increase in voter interest on the right: Republican turnout in the Silver State was up 56 percent over 2012 and 118 percent over 2008.
Speaking at the Bill and Lillie Heinrich YMCA in the central Las Vegas Valley, Cruz congratulated caucus victor Donald Trump on a “strong evening”, adding the early count was not official when he took the stage about 10:15 p.m.
Cruz, meanwhile, finished No. 3, following third-place wins in both New Hampshire and SC.
The senator was introduced by Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt and national radio host Glenn Beck, who said Cruz would become the United States’ first Hispanic president in November.
