More quotes by Christopher Michael Cillizza
[Donald] Trump won fair and square! He got 13.3 million votes. He won all over the country. He won when the race was crowded and when it was a one on one against Ted Cruz. There's just no reasonable way to keep Trump from the nomination while insisting that the will of the Republican voter is being respected.

Christopher Michael Cillizza
Where we are in politics is running down whatever doesn't agree with you.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
Trump staying disciplined and on message is not what Donald Trump wants. He views himself as a tremendously gifted natural communicator who connects best with people when he is riffing without notes or preparation.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
If people don't believe the source, then we aren't going to change their minds. We just won't.

[Paul] Ryan won kudos both within his membership and the party base for not giving in.

Anything is possible with Trump.

You have every right to have your views. But don't let those views get in the way of indisputable facts!

Being freaked out doesn't mean you can fix what you perceive to be the problem.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I think what it is is do not depend on the president to get you over the line. Do not depend on the fundraising, on the turnout operation, the president's own popularity, because it's not going to work.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I think Twitter is becoming remarkably intolerant and heavily liberal. As in, anything that is perceived as being pro Trump is scolded and mocked.

I eat like a maniac when I am sick. My attitude is if I am going to die anyway in the next 24-48 hours, I mind as well live it up.
