If Cruz was supposed to win ANY state it would have been Indiana. It's full of bible thumping xenophobic corn farmers who share the same ideals as Cruz. He couldn't even win that state. He should start waving the white flag in the next few hours.

You sound exactly like I did when Reagan was nominated.
It's mind boggling. Trump is the 2016 rightard nominee. You have no one to blame but yourselves this time. You can't bullshit and say if we only nominated an extremist conservative. Trump has been as rightard as it gets.
I knew Ronald Reagan. Reagan was an idiot too but Trump is no Reagan. And mitt Romney won a higher percentage of whites than Reagan did and still lost. This isn't Reagans America.

You're right that he's not Reagan. But there are a lot of similarities. He will pull a lot of the same Dem working class voters that Reagan did.
Comparing the percentage of the white vote is a pointless measure. But Trump's already beat Romney's vote totals for the entire primary run by a lot even with Romney being the presumptive nominee from the start and with a lot more votes to come. Romney got less than McCain did but he'll beat that easily too. After tonight he only needs about 250,000 more votes to beat the record of 10.8 million set by Bush in 2000.
He's a stronger candidate than people give him credit for. And I'm not even a Trump fan.
He's an idiot though. Even if elected he's going to be a total loser and make America a laughing stock and do irreparable harm to our status, economy and international diplomacy. And that's after the fact of him not being able to accomplish shit even if he survives a term without being impeached.
Republican voters have now dedicated themselves to a cluster fuck no matter the outcome. I also think you are discount ting the turn out against him. There are many people that cannot bring themselves to vote for a man like that. And many of them happen to be Republican.
