It is fact.

Cruz has so far gathered all of the drop-out support.

There is no reason to believe that the rest will not be the same.

Ultimately, Cruz is the candidate. (Trump is the MSM failed attempt to stop Cruz)

Trump is in a statistical stall.

He has failed to gather drop-out voters.

His 64% negatives are an impenetrable ceiling for the remainder of his campaign.

"Your assumption that Cruz gets everyone else's votes is nonsense."

Bump. The establishment has one last card to play before going rouge, they hope to use Ted Cruz to stop Trump.

They hate Cruz so no they wouldn’t do anything to help him out. Their last card, I think, is Rubio.

Yep. They hope neither can get enough delegates to wrap up the nomination. Failing that, they will undermine the winner so Hillary wins. Then they will blame it on his being "too extreme", and use the threat of Hillary and a Democrat congress to force conservatives to vote for them. Trump can beat Hillary without the party apparatus. Cruz can't.
