Ted Cruz’s big donors will tell him to take a hike if/when he loses Indiana.

If Cruz doesn't withdraw after losing Indiana, it will mean that the GOPE has plans to cheat Trump out of the nomination, even if Trump shows up with 1237+ delegates.

If Cruz doesn't withdraw after losing Indiana, it will mean that the GOPE has plans to cheat Trump out of the nomination, even if Trump shows up with 1237+ delegates.

One of Manafort's main jobs is to ensure that doesn't happen. He knows all the tricks and shenanigans that can be tried and is there to intercept and neutralize such efforts. In the meantime Trump has pivoted to focus the bright light of publicity on "the process" while simultaneously working behind the scenes with the RNC to help them down the road of acceptance. Skullduggery doesn't work in broad daylight.

It sounds more like Cruz is just running on autopilot waiting for the batteries to run out. He's trying to put on a brave face but I think he knows that after Tuesday he's done.

The rules committee will do something like unbound the delegates.

No, even they aren’t that insane.
