What a difference two weeks have made for the #NeverTrump campaign. On the night of April 5, Ted Cruz decisively won the Wisconsin primary, with Donald Trump stuck in second place in familiar 35 percent territory. At his victory event, Cruz, who took home 36 of Wisconsin’s 42 delegates, declared the state a “turning point” in the race.
Cruz allies in the #NeverTrump effort were jubilant. “‘Member when some said we couldn’t stop @realDonaldTrump? Wrong,” tweeted Katie Packer of the anti-Trump Our Principles PAC. “Congrats to all who stopped him from hijacking GOP #NeverTrump #cleveland.”
