When Donald Trump gave his concession speech on Monday night, many people were surprised at how gracious he was. Many people, myself included, expected that when Trump lost Iowa he would begin to melt down, costing himself votes and support in later contests. Well, it turns out that we were right on the result, but wrong on the timing. Starting this morning Trump started posting a series of tweets that began with this:
Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!

and ended with this:
Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified.

The next few weeks should sure be fun to watch.

No, sorry.
Trump is probably going to win NH by 15-20 points and then he’ll be back to his old self.
We’ve got a LONG way to go.
