Why would they bolt the party they absolutely own?

If the GOPe move against Trump and/or Cruz. And in response, they form an independent ticket, I would support them.

So a Dem wins for sure.
But who is THEIR nominee?
Does Hillary make it to the championship game?

Huffington Post?

Maybe Cruz should realize he’s not going to win, and stand down.

Just saying.

He can be part of our leadership, but not this way. Cruz you are becoming part of the problem.

Trump ain’t leaving the party
If they want to leave him, he can point them to the exit
“Get them out of here!”

The match was made when RNC players issued late-hour rulings that favored John Kasich's nomination.

Huh? The RNC can issue as many late-hour rulings as they want, but those rules must be voted on by the delegates on the floor. No need for Trump and Cruz to both go third party, as together they can certainly block any pro-Kasich rule.

How would that work for out for the GOPe? I imagine DOA in November.

That’s not a totally implausible situation. I just wonder what is going on inside of Cruz and Trumps head when they started this fight and now can not really back bown gracefully.

Make no mistake...the GOPe finds BOTH of them unacceptable. If Trump goes down, Cruz becomes the paper clean up and they both get flushed. For now they are buttering up Cruz because they need him to keep Trump from 1237. But this is a temporary situation and once that is secured, Cruz will fall back out of the good graces.

this is and impossible scenario, because according to Trump Cruz is constitutionally ineligible.

...2016 election took a theoretical new twist

And that's the way it will stay...theoretical! Especially after Cruz said that Trump is .."inciting riots."

It’s about as likely as Hillary bolting the Democrat Party.

SDV,
As much as I like you and find you to be an overall good guy, this scenario is a bad idea. The same scene crossed my mind 6 or more months ago. Since then a number of factors raised the head and the eyes. First, third party would lose. If we had a third party in place prior, that circumstance might have a chance. Now -I have been told would be too little too late and the Dem candidate would win by a bunch.
Second, the two could find themselves at odds over proper positions on the third party ticket.
Third, Why would Trump tie himself to someone who is not even eligible to hold the position?

Sorry, big guy Can’t accept the premise; but, thank you for the article.

Did they include the HUGE LAWSUITS that Trump is almost bound to file against the people who schemed against his presidential run?
