Cruz won’t be winning 1,237 before the convention. Cruz is about to be on the verge elimination on April 19th, and for sure he will be eliminated from getting 1,237 on April 26th. Cruz plays his silly games in an attempt to stop Trump from getting 1,237 by convention time. It will not be Cruz who wrangles the Republican nomination.
What part of “I am NOT saying Cruz is going to get to 1237 or that he is beating Trump or any nonsense like that” did you not understand? It is not a “silly game” to try to stop Trump from getting 1,237: it is the whole game. If Trump did get to 1,237, its over for Cruz. If he doesn’t, Cruz is still very much in contention. Can’t you just accept a simple, intellectually and mathematically honest analysis?
What do you think happens if Trump gets to the convention with 1,050 or 1,100 delegates and Cruz has 800+ delegates? You think its automatically going to Trump? I don’t see what special advantage he has once the balloting begins. On the contrary, there are a lot of indications that Cruz’s delegate groundwork gives him a strong advantage in that setting.
