I voted for Cruz. If he loses, he loses. If the GOP steals Trumps earned nomination to put in Rubio or someone else I will not vote for anyone.

But keep in mind that Trump only earns the nomination through a majority of delegates and caucus/primary votes.

It’s suicide for the GOPe to steal the nomination away under such circumstances.

But what if Trump only wins a plurality?

Is leading the pack with totals in the 35% to 40% range enough to claim that anyone has “earned” the nomination? Does being able to cobble together a coalition that gives another candidate 60% to 65% of the vote mean that other candidate hasn’t earned the nomination?
