The problem with scenarios 2 & 3 is that the GOPe is doing everything they can to make sure 1 & 4 don’t happen. They have made it very clear that they DO NOT under any circumstances want to follow the voters wishes (unless the voters agree with them) and they will do what they can to avoid it. The GOPe should be advocating for all of their potential nominees to give the winner the best chance of winning in November. Not trashing them in hopes that Kasich keeps the top 2 from being the voters’ majority favorite. The other things they’ve done with delegates recently may be within the rules but they certainly don’t look good.
I’ll wait and see but the scheming has already started and won’t wait until the 4 scenarios at the convention.
It’s like intentionally calling the runner out at home when he’s safe in the 6th inning to avoid having to make a game ending bad call in the 9th when everyone’s looking more closely. They have a lot at stake though so a 9th inning bad call is still possible if they can’t avoid it.
If a candidate goes into the Convention with a majority of delegates and does not leave with the nomination, I will join you on The Barricades, no matter who that candidate was.
If no candidate has a majority going into the convention, I will be watching very closely.
