I doubt there is any way at this point Ted Cruz could pick up enough delegates to deny The Donald the 1,237 delegates needed to win the GOP nomination. But he still can win delegates. Some people are confused between a suspended campaign and a terminated campaign. Regardless of what happens in the remaining states, Marco Rubio will still end up with more delegates than John Kasich, despite exiting the race two months earlier.

Listen up! Nebraska, West Virginia, Oregon, Washington, Montana, South Dakota, New Jersey, New Mexico, and California! Ted Cruz has suspended his campaign, not ended his campaign. What’s the difference between suspension and termination? Delegates! Candidates who drop out forfeit their delegates, and any potential of winning more delegates. Ted Cruz’ name will still be on the primary ballots of the states I listed above. He had no intention of having his name removed from the ballot, nor will he endorse any other candidate before the convention. This means that in the states listed above, Cruz could still win delegates IF the voters in those states are smart enough not to buy-into the hype of Trumpmania. For those who are angry enough to leave the GOP, (and I certainly understand that anger,) I give you a clarion call not to do so yet if you live in those states listed above. In fact, I would suggest you wait until the convention in July before officially dropping out of the party.

I want to let y’all know that Ted Cruz saying that he is suspending his campaign is him not quitting. He said he is gonna keep fighting & he is not giving up…the same things that our former president Reagan said. [Reagan suspended his campaign just before the CA primary in 1976 and won California; then in 1980 he won a contested GOP convention] Reagan also suspended his campaign before the California primary because he was falling way behind from the person he was running against. But behind the suspension, Reagan was strategizing, picking up delegates behind the scene & lots of prayer & fasting. The media hated Reagan too & he had to get the media out of the way & that’s what Cruz is doing! Cruzers, y’all NEVER give up! Cruz is doing a Reagan strategy. Reagan also said his VP pick right before the California primary & Ted is doing the same! Reagan won California primary & he later on went to a contested convention & won! History is repeating itself & everyone should NEVER give up! That’s what the media wants you to think but God has an Ace up His sleeve & it’s Ted Cruz??????
