You guys writing Trump's political obituary are setting yourselves up for a rude awakening.
The widely held beliefs that...the Trump-haters declare that if their anti-candidate falls one vote short at the convention ... his vote melts like ice cream, he dies as a candidate, and he will have no influence on the outcome because all those who were hoodwinked into voting for him and serving as his delegates earlier will have recanted because his most vocal opponents have unmasked him as a charlatan and a menace to the planet.

There are some serious problems with this perspective. It emanates from sources that, ..., have called it wrong at almost every stage of this campaign.

So there's Conrad Black'opinion for you, whoever he is. Seriously, the article was so full of Trump bias and bullcrap that it was hard to take seriously, or even finish. In any case, it's opinion, not fact, and you, I, Mr. Conrad and the people he dismisses will all have to wait 'till July, probably, to see how it all turns out. Until then, we can all have fun speculating.

OH, but what about this opinion piece? "The voters have spoken: Never Trump"

The voters have spoken: Never Trump

I like this part from the article:

"But, either way, it has become clear that Trump is ultimately doomed. True, he has a sizable lead in the upcoming New York primary, and he could secure the nomination without getting a majority of the popular vote. But Republican voters are correctly coming to understand that, even if he limps through the nominating process, his reckless candidacy will be a sure loser in the fall."

Biased, maybe. But you can't deny the facts that he lists and I take note, that you didn't address.

Well. There's a difference. The WaPo has been constantly wrong about Trump since last July. So fail on that.

So now that that has been dispensed with, how about actually addressing the topic at hand.

I was wondering where you were yesterday, WK. Guess it took all day for you to find that article.

You must not be that observant. I made 29 posts here yesterday.

BTW, the topic isn't about me. How about addressing the OP. Or does it not fit your narriative?

When Trump trounces Cruz in NY will all the fanboys and girls along with the media declare Cruz campaign in limbo death spiral as they falsely claim of Trumps after WI? and every other miniscule loss for that matter
