Just watched the first ten minutes of a Trump speech in Long Island. He knows exactly what he's doing here. Talked about going golfing at the local golf course "you all know what I'm talking about. It's good to be home." Crowd went crazy. Hammered Cruz for "when he started lecturing me on New York values, like we're no good. Like we're no good! And I started telling him about the bravery at the World Trade Center, of our police, our firemen, of everybody, you better believe it! So I looked at him and started talking about our incredible police, our incredible firefighters, our incredible people, our unbelievable construction workers, who could have rebuilt that hole, there's nothing like it in this country! The bravery of it was incredible, we all know people who died, and I've got this guy standing there across from me talking about New York values, with scorn in his face, with hatred in his heart... so folks, I think you can forget about him. fuhgeddaboutim!" Interrupted time after time with crowd cheers and "USA! USA! USA!", ended with "Lyin' Ted!" chant. He just kept going.
Every minute was another phrase of praise for New York, Trump identified himself with the state again and again. "They like me because I'm a straight shooter, like New York. New Yorkers, we shoot straight here." This is how you win a state, folks. Between that, Cruz's "New York values" and Trump knowing exactly how to play it, and Kasich's increasing irrelevance, I would put my money on Trump getting over 50 or even over 60% here.
