Great detective work. Now try this. Find a candidate who was viewed unfavorably by a third of all women, nearly two-thirds of independents, 80 percent of young adults, 85 percent of Hispanics and nearly half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents. One who was also a three-point deficit to the opposition in polls and in just one month sank to a nearly eleven point deficit. Oh and also one who trailed the polls in every, single swing-state. Get back to us and let us know how that worked out. Wait, I'll save you the time. Its NEVER happened because there has never been such an unpopular candidate in major party history. If it had, that candidate would lose a general election in an epic landslide, just like Trump will if by some miracle he gets the GOP nomination.

If Donald Trump is unpopular - Ted Cruz must be really unpopular.
News Flash - Donald Trump has the most votes by millions in the republican party. This includes young adults, women, men, evangelicals, jews, Hispanics, African Americans, mexicans, poorly educated, college educated, people with glasses, women born in April.
We count votes in the United States. We don't count "who you don't like"
75 percent of Republican voters voted against Cruz. How can you nominate Cruz when 75 percent of the voters didn't vote for Cruz ??

Where is your proof of any of this? Trump has done awfully well in the Republican race so far for someone viewed unfavorably by half of them and half of Republican-leaning independents. Hillary has extremely low favorability as well, but when it comes down to brass tacks people will vote who they think is the best choice to run the country, not who they want to be BFFs with. Also, young adults and Hispanics have lower voting rates than other demographic groups.

No, he hasn't done well. He can't even get to 50% support in ANY state. Cruz has, he got over 69% of the vote in Utah. More Republicans are voting against Trump than for him. The ONLY reason he is winning is because the anti-Trump vote is scattered between multiple candidates, thus giving Trump victories with only 35-40% of the vote.

How's your boy doing RIGHT NOW ? How many delegates is he behind ? What percentage of the remaining delegates does he need to get to 1,237 ? How will he fare in the Northeast ?
I think you already know all of those answers and it's not pretty. Cruz is being used by the GOP.
Trump has won every state in the Eastern 1/2 of the USA except for Maine.
This speaks for itself.
Im not paying attention to geographical talk from someone who thought Iowa was east of the Mississippi and the Northern Marianas Islands was a state lol
Trump’s favorable rating among the general electorate is, on average, 30 percent. His unfavorable rating is a sky-high 63 percent. In other words, a lot more people dislike Trump than like him. The American public was more evenly split on Reagan at a comparable point in the 1980 campaign. According to an April 1980 Cambridge Reports survey, 39 percent of Americans had a favorable view of Reagan, and 44 percent had an unfavorable view. Reagan’s net favorability rating was 28 percentage points higher than Trump’s is.
Now, Trump might get more popular after the primary campaign ends and more Republicans start carrying his banner. But Reagan was also in the heat of a primary fight until May 1980, against George H.W. Bush. It seems likely that Trump, if he wins the nomination, will be much less popular than Reagan was when he started the general election campaign.
Reagan gave off a lovable grandpa vibe, Trump gives off an unlovable scumbag vibe. No way does the circus clown repair his image in time for the election. He's a zombie candidate.
