GOPe huddle. It’s all becoming clearer by the minute who all the players are, and aren’t.

“Trump & Cruz will come together before it’s all over with.”

Not easy for Cruz to get the toothpaste back into the tube at this point with Neil on his payroll.

Wrong inclination and momentun. GOPes need to realize that Cruz IS the Establishment of the future, not Trump, and they need to gravvitate towrd him, not him toward them, with or without Trump.

Neither their invalid stance nor Trump's switcherini approach, can carry the center, and stop us from slouching further into Gomorrah.

We have to deal with the infestation of foreigners, and some will pragmatically have to stay, albeit assimilated as Americans, not as decorating the multicultural christmas tree.

Many must go, and enrich the countries they come from. Or our life-form will be so bastardized that no one will relize where it came from.

Do you really think a TRUE outsider would even AGREE to meet with Obama-Loving, Chris Christie, for his advice? Really?

Quit being logical.

At some appropriate time Trump and Cruz need to have there own meeting. They need to be prepared for how they would approach the scenario of an elite takeover of the process that might leave them both on the outside.

The establishment hates Cruz.

So why do you suppose he's meeting with them?

Bush is going to make them an offer they can’t refuse.

The logic according to Cruz supporters is that the establishment hates Cruz so much that they are teaming up with him to destroy the guy that they don’t hate as much!

Make sense to you? Didn’t think so.

Here's a transcript from the meeting:

Jeb: Now guys, you all had your fun and fifteen minutes of fame, but as you all know, if it goes to a brokered convention, you'll all have to step aside and make room for my coron...I mean nomination. But don't worry, since they probably won't let me get away with picking my son Jorge Prescott as a running mate, Marco will get to be my VP and Johnny can be secretary of something or other. Sorry Ted, but you're out of luck, you get nothing. Thanks for taking one for the team though!

But, but, but, Cruz is not one of them. He is an outsider, remember. /s

One concern I've had -- Donald Trump has been putting on a few pounds, probably as a consequence of eating Bush', Rubio's, Cruz', and Kasich's lunch.

No idea.

Cruz has more class than I do. I'd tell Bush to take a hike.

Could it be that Bush and the establishment want Cruz to look bad to the conservative base?

McConnell has already let it slip that the establishment would prefer to have the malleable Trump in office.

You guys have a problem with me posting the truth about Ted Cruz safeguarding our fundamental rights? FACT.

You want to tell me that he is part of the GOP establishment who treated him like crap from day one?

Do you Trump people get all your orders from Trump central? No, it doesn’t mean that Cruz is not an outsider! It means that they hate Trump more than Cruz. We know that if they knock out Trump that they will turn their guns on Cruz.

Yeah, a Trump=Cruz alliance. Funny stuff!
