“Rule: First candidate to achieve 1237 Delegates. Cruz will, Trump can’t.”

Reality: If the greater number of the people choose Trump, but fewer than 3,000 party insiders choose Cruz or anyone else as nominee, the clear will of the people will have effectively been overruled.

Should this happen, the Republican nominee will go on to lose to the Democrat in the general election, as the process will be judged by close to 40% of Republican voters as illegitimate, and fundamentally un-American.

We won’t have a country any longer, but at least you’ll still have your precious party rules to cling to.

You are in favor of changing the rules of the game in the middle of the game?

The “reality” is that Cruz will achieve 1237 first, and become the nominee.

I’m sorry that attempting to call the game in the middle of 5th inning didn’t work out for you......
