Trump is still a... What was it? Ummmm... Yes, sniveling coward. That's what it was. Sniveling coward.

Sorry I just can't bring myself to listen or read anything from this guy.

Ye we noticed that in the past wen iirc that not once did you give any  proof or substance as to why he's a phony and liar except for some random fact check sheet that was completely biased and not based on factual info.

He said he would support the nominee and didn't. Then said he would never support the nominee and did. I guess that is not being a phony or a liar. I could go on but it would do no good.

Not worth the fight, but neither of those 1st two sentences are true, (I case ur confused that would be the last 2 words of the first sentence and 8 of the 2nd).  I guess we forgot what the definition of support and endorse mean but that's OK your entitled.

So if I produce footage of him saying either of those two things will you admit he is a phony?

"I committed at the outset, I will support the Republican nominee, whoever it is." Cruz told reporters at a suburban St. Louis high school

How do you like your crow done?

"I'm not in the habit of supporting someone who attacks my wife and my family," Cruz said.

I suppose you consider that "and didnt"
Which Is debateable, especially as he did come out today and support him to fulfill his pledge to support the eventual nominee

Where s the said he would never support him...

Debatable? Lets take it in context.

Cruz was questioned as to why he “broke his pledge” to explicitly endorse the Republican nominee. Cruz started his answer by saying that when he raised his hand back at the first GOP debate, he did so “enthusiastically” and had every intention to support the nominee. He then added, “the day that was abdicated was the day that this became personal.” Cruz continued, “I am not in the habit of supporting people that attack my wife and my father.”

Not sure what the LOL is about. This guy is not saying anything new. The fact is that the Dems have the electoral advantage, and it would take enormous effort for a Republican to win.

What people like yourself fail to realize is that in the last twenty or so years the White population has declined and the Black and Hispanic populations have grown. Blacks and Hispanics overwhelmingly vote Democrat. The battleground states have millions of more Blacks and Hispanics than they had twenty years ago, and the polls don't reflect that. The Republicans' best hope is that Blacks and Hispanics won't be motivated to vote.

Except that this wasn't his argument. Why do you say the pills don't reflect the demographic changes you mentioned?

The polls judge from samples and averages. They take a pool of people from various political affiliations and ethnicities and then combine the total.

For example:

Suppose all Jews had a certain gene. Scientists wanted to figure out how many people in general had this gene, and they decided to sample NYC. Let's say NYC has 8 million people, 2 million of which are Jews. Before polling, we already know that 2 out of every 8, or 1 out of every 4 have this gene. The polls will be totally off the mark, because they will take samples from all backgrounds, let's say from ten different ethnicities, then come back and say it's 1 in 20 etc.
