Based on current delegate counts and poll numbers Ted Cruz will be mathematically unable to reach the delegate count required for him to win the Republican Presidential nomination. By the end April it will be clear that Ted Cruz has no chance of reaching the 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination.

As we all know about Ted Cruz, when he is eliminated from winning the GOP Primary, in less than 30 days, he will go against what he has been saying to Kasich, and will be a flaming Hypocrite.

Trump has been right about Cruz all along, he is a "lyin" low life and will not be true to his word, and drop out after being mathematically eliminated.

Washington (CNN) — Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said Wednesday that Ohio Gov. John Kasich needs to drop out of the Republican presidential race because "it's mathematically impossible" for him to become the nominee. Cruz argued that Kasich, who trails both Trump and Cruz in the delegate race, would need to win "more than 100% of the remaining delegates" in order reach the 1,237 required to secure the nomination. As of Wednesday, Trump leads with 741, Cruz has 461 and Kasich has 145.

Dropping out would open the door to the GOPe playing shenanigans at the convention. By staying in, Cruz has a vested interest in keeping rule 40 in place.

Cruz wants to treat the Republican voter like Obamacare. What a bastard Cruz is.
From stud to dud, Ted Cruz.

If he doesn’t drop out (after being mathematically eliminated) then I will become a Trump supporter that day.

The only rationalization for him convincing unbound delegates to vote for him is under the assumption a second vote will be needed. It won’t be needed if Trump has 1237 delegates.

Bullsh!t, it’s all about Ted keeping himself in place at the risk of getting a GOPe back over Trump.

When does Ted start to openly campaign for Hillary?

Ted Cruz = The Establishment Trojan Horse

The RNC/GOPe is VOIDING the WILL of Republcan voters because their guys lost.

Now they are HIJACKING and SELECTING Nominee 2016.

The RNC is CANCELING the 2016 Election since they are telling us OUR VOTES NO LONGER COUNT unless it’s someone they like.

Does this sound like the land of the free and home of the brave to you?

Sounds like we are going into a post America world.

One of Trump’s kids should move to Texas and primary Lyin’ Ted in 2018.

“Dropping out would open the door to the GOPe playing shenanigans at the convention. By staying in, Cruz has a vested interest in keeping rule 40 in place.”

Do you really think the RNC won’t play their ‘shenanigans’ regardless? You must be kidding.

TC is doing what his puppetmasters are telling him to do. Same for Kasich for that matter.

At first, I was really excited by a Cruz candidacy, but since he has mounted a dirty tricks campaign that only Barack Obama could admire.

I wouldn’t vote for him now if Trump dropped out.

If he dropped out he’d have to,go,home to his wife- vetted all male staff and his oddly unhappy- looking family

Staying on the traiil with his posse, 5star hotels with room service, giving speeches to adoring if small crowds ... beats reality

For all intents and purposes, he already is eliminated. Waiting for “absolutist” math to catch up to reality is nice and all, but unless Cruz achieves Saddam-like victories in every remaining state, he can’t even get close to 1,237.

The only number that matters to Cruz is 956 -- the mathematical point where Trump can't get to 1,237.

Then, he will have done his job, so he can ride into Cleveland, triumphantly and be appointed the Republican nominee.

Until the GOPe decides to throw the process wide open, since no candidate won a majority during the primary.

ExploiTED!

That is correct he would be stupid for dropping out, if Trump gets enough delegates to win then staying in is a mute point, Cruz would then need to come together with Trump and support Trump to keep the party from dividing. I think that will happen they always seem to put difference aside at the very end.

RE:”Where did you get the title you posted?”

He made up the title himself of course, so it wouldnt be locked for posting duplicate.

And why would he drop out?

When you team is down in the 3rd quarter, do you expect them to pack itup, or try and tie it to head to overtime.

That’s what we’re talking about here.

Cruz would be an idiot to drop out at this point, especially if they can get rule 40 to stay in place...
