Nobody cares? What if Trump is 14 delegates short at the convention?

He’s not going to be. What the Cruzlims won’t acknowledge is that the process is rigged. They mock Trump and anyone else for saying it is, but facts are it’s not worth the time expense and energy for Trump to compete there when the party has locked him out. Cruz supporters at these conventions are the far right of the right as are most Cruz supporters, which is why he can only get 25% of the vote nationally.

This ends April 26th after Trump wins his 6th in a row and Ted finishes 3rd for the 6th time in a row. Cruz can pick delegates all he wants in the hopes of a contested convention, but Trump will get 1237, and if he is a bit short, he will pick up what he needs from the 125-150 unbound delegates or will offer Kasich the VP and get his 66 Ohio delegates. Once Kasich drops out, Trump gets all 66 per Ohio law. So the Republican party would be looking at a historic defeat of epic proportions if they nominate Cruz through his bogus delegate stacking process. Millions will stay home or write Trump in like myself. Independents will be turned off by Cruz and why would any Democrat choose Cruz over Hillary? Cruz supporters can delude themselves all they want, but this ends on April 26th.

==

He’ll be nominee or R’s lose Senate and House and cease being a viable party.

For anybody who hasn’t figured it out yet Trump is running as the most successful third party candidate ever, just under an R label, which of course gives it legitimacy.

GoPe represents misinformed moderate status quotus types and few delusional Cruz fans afraid to break with status quotus party.

Trump represents a new party those who have awakened to the reality of the GoPe and boldly ready and willing to vote for real change, knowing unless they do, we surely are in last hours of this great Republic.

It doesn’t matter — if he finishes 14 short on the first ballot and loses the nomination on the second, he’ll just bitch and moan about how everybody was out to get him and call for riots in Cleveland. And of course, his cult will gleefully oblige.
