I'm waiting to see just how tall that wall will be when he gets in
Seeing how most of the illegals that stay here fly here it better be a tall one.

No support? Are you blind? The man just got nominated by the Republican Party as their candidate for POTUS.
Of course, he has no chance....He had no chance to win the nomination a year ago...

The problem is that his campaign worked well in an echo chamber
what will he do when he has to appeal to the rest of the electorate?
sorry, but the conservative male vote doesn't win elections anymore.

Yeah. Ole Ted is taking a calculated risk here. Hes thinking Trump loses the election, and he can say in the end that "I was right, you were all wrong" to the GOP. But if Trump wins the race, and its a very real possibility, this might be political suicide for Cruz because a lot of people are pissed at Cruz now (including supporters and former campaign staff advisers etc) So if Trumps win the election, Cruz might have a hard time getting GOP support in 2020 when he runs again.

The Republican Delegates officially nominated Donald Trump at the RNC Convention.
He went way over the 1237 votes needed.
New York was allowed to cast their 89 votes that put his total over 1237.
Now the real campaigning starts.
Hillary Clinton is expected to secure the Democrat nomination next week.
Let's see if both Parties stick to the issues and minimize the pointless bickering and deflections.
Voters will be watching very closely this election.
It's Official: Trump Wins GOP Presidential Nomination
Donald Trump officially became the Republican Party's presidential nominee on Tuesday after a roll call vote overshadowed by dissent and apathy atypical of what is traditionally a celebration of the party's White House candidate.
Trump easily earned the 1,237 delegates needed to capture the nomination. But sporadic boos could be heard as some states attempted to award delegates to Trump's Republican primary competitors.
Trump's home delegation of New York put him over the top, announced on the convention floor with Trump's children standing nearby.
