I agree.
It’s either Trump, or a GOPe approved nominee. Cruz will NEVER get the nomination under any circumstance.
That’s what bought and paid for career politicians do. Protect the party above all else because ultimately that is what feathers their nests. Birds of a feather...
Cruz is merely the GOPe’s weapon of convenience against Trump.
Yep, and will be discarded when no longer of use.
You’re right, us Cruz voters should just give up and go home and stay there till the elections are over in November. Sounds like a good idea.
Desperate
So, walk us through your convention scenario.
Cruz gets the nomination how?
As the two GOP front runners became clear, a lot of good people here have said: “I would choose A over B but in Nov I’d vote for either.”
It should be pretty obvious that Cruz will not be a choice in Nov.
So the choice is Trump or some establishment guy.
Why is this hard?
And Trump Supporters are voting for Hillary to be elected president. It would seem we’re at an impasse.
He doesn’t. Which is why us Cruz supporters should just give up and go home. . . And stay there.
It’s either Trump, or a GOPe approved nominee. Cruz will NEVER get the nomination under any circumstance. I Totally AGREE
CAN’T SEE MITCH AND PAUL LETTING CRUZ WIN THEY HATE HIS GUTS
IF TRUMP WINS MOST DELEGATES, EVEN IF A FEW SHORT, GIVEN THEY STARTED WITH 17 DELEGATES THE WHOLE THING WILL BE VIEWED AS RIGGED IF TRUMP DOESN’T WIN.
REMEMBER BECAUSE OF TRUMP 70% MORE VOTERS HAVE VOTED THIS YEAR.
WE WILL VOTE THE GOP LEADERSHIP OUT OF OFFICE STARTING WITH RYAN.
The last time a candidate didn’t have enough, was 1976. The convention boiled down to a contest between the no.1 and no.2 guys.
It might be that simple again. It might end up that only Trump or Cruz will be considered. Nobody can predict the future. The RNC would really do a lot of damage to the brand if they chose a third person.
who do we vote for if neither C or T win the nomination?
Sorry, I thought you were being sarcastic.

The Trump logic is funny. On the one hand you guys try to paint Cruz as carrying the water for the GOPe. On the other hand, Cruz can’t wind because the establish hates his guts.
LOL. You guys contradict yourselves on FR to suit the argument you want to make. Cruz is either an outsider or not. Be consistent Trump guys. If your new argument is the establish hates Cruz, than Cruz can’t be one of them. Just saying.
That’s what you want though right? For us to stop voting for Cruz? So what other option does someone like me have except to just stay home? I’m sure as hell not voting for Trump or Clinton or Kasich or Bernie. So there’s that.
Completely different scenario. There was no way the convention was going with a third candidate when one of the candidates was the sitting President. Today is completely different and the posters position is exactly right. It will be Trump or the GOPe's pick. That's it.
