How Dare Cruz try to win the Presidential primary.

This "Ted Cruz setting up Paul Ryan as the Presidential nominee" is nothing more than an unfounded Conspiracy Theory.

Right now Cruz needs about 85% of the remaining delegates to win. In a couple of weeks, that will be over 100%. Kasich already needs over 100% of the remaining delegates to win. If Cruz continues to stay in the race, how much longer will it take before conspiracy theory becomes conspiracy fact?

1# Ted can only get the nomination at a ‘Brokered’ convention.
2# At the ‘Brokered’ convention, the GOPe will never give the nomination to Cruz.
3# Therefore a vote for Cruz, is a vote for the GOPe.

Cruz needs nearly every available delegate to win with 1,237. He can lose 35 delegates between now and the convention - mathematically impossible.

Cruz is merely there to ensure a contested convention, and for any of his supporters to state otherwise is pure delusion.

Please ignore the sudden embrace of Cruz by Jeb Bush , Lindsey Graham, Mitt Romney.

Ok, so when Cruz is mathematicall out, does he pledge to Trump or to the GOPe? Because we all know there is no way the GOP nominated Cruz.

So Cruz could be in a position to either stop the GOPe or Trump.
Backs Trump and he is more likely the real deal.
If after he is mathematically out he stays in to get both he and Trump out, then Ted Cruz is a political dead man walking. MARK MY WORDS

He’ll just go and represent Goldman Sachs in plain view for a living.

Ted Cruz has already lost. Unfortunately, Ted Cruz is about Ted Cruz and his supporters are apparently unable to perform simple math.

The part that gets me to no end is that there are so many Cruz supporters who actually think he is going to win at a brokered convention and they also believe that he can beat Hillary after the media turns on him. Cruz will not get a single cross over vote and he will lose many Trump voters.
