"Nothing Changed Yesterday—And Trump Is Still Not on the Path to Nomination"

Excerpt:

But despite his victory, Trump got only a very modest bump from New York last night. And despite the breathless TV and print commentary from our New York–centered media, he still faces huge obstacles if he wants to get a sufficient number of delegates to be nominated on the first ballot. And if he is not nominated on the first ballot, given Cruz’s wildly successful delegate strategy, it is unlikely he will be nominated at all. […]

– Jeremy Carl, NRO writer

Like I said, the GOP is d*mned if Trump gets the nomination and d*mned if he doesn't.

BD, – I kept hearing the repetitive media hype about Trump's supposed "Landslide" win in NY while Hillary's actual HUGE win was presented as simply "Hillary Stops Bernie's Momentum."

Then I researched the actual vote numbers for myself and was like…Wow. WE (everyday, hard-working Americans) have GOT to be smarter. We can't keep letting them play Us so easily.

We just can't BD.

Hey this is some good information Truth. But I'm not surprised. Trump won but he's still a big liability to the Repubs. I can't wait to see him in the fall.

It's clear that the GOPe is stuck with the nightmare of Trump. The Republican party is d*mned if Trump wins the nomination and d*mned if he doesn't.

And it couldn't happen to a more deserving group of people.

GO TRUMP!

DJ, I must say that alway look forward to your post-primary summary. Your summaries are always On-Point and you rpovide Us (your readers) with Just.The.Facts. Thank you so much for that.

Now…..in keeping with just the facts, a few oberservations really struck me last night and this morning:

First: Trump won New York. But he was expected to win. It's his home state. And as also expected, he won big over Kasich and Cruz. But if I may? I'd like to examine his "Landlside" victory (as the media breathlessly describes it) a little closer.

Trump attained ONLY 518,601 votes in his home-state ….versus Kasich who attained 956,762 votes in his home-state of Ohio..and versus Cruz who attained 1,239,370 votes in his home-state of Texas.

Now let's compare Trump's "Landslide" victory with who actually got the most votes last night:

Trump got only 518,601 votes versus Sanders who received 752,739 votes…and versus Hillary who received 1,037,344.

Keep in mind – Hillary attained her NY win despite over 100,000 people in districts where she really won BIG not being able to vote due to some error on the part of the precinct they were assigned to vote. In other words, had those 100,000 people been allowed to vote, no doubt Hillary's popular vote total would have been even higher.

I shared all that to say this…… the American news media truly is, generally, a Dirty Rotten industry. Rotten to the core. The 1% who own the news media controls the narrative (the language and the message).

I am reminded of George Orwell and Language Control: "He who controls the language controls the masses.”

No matter your political affiliation (be it Dem, Repub, Independent, Libertarian, whatever) WE cannot continue to allow the 1% and their media hacks to play Us so easily. They seek to keep us distracted, divided and under their control, in order to retain Power and increase Profits, beginning with controlling the narrative.

It's past-time for Us to WAKE-UP and grow a brain (do your own research and THINK for yourself).

We're ALL in this thing together. We really are.
