Except there are a lot of anti-Cruz supporters out there too. Nothing says Cruz will pick up Rubio’s supporters. This isn’t a game of when a team loses, they automatically join another team. It doesn’t work that way.
It will if they want “anyone but trump.”
The general public won’t go for it, but they are not political whores like the candidates.

Exactly. In fact, when someone is deeply committed to a candidate, has donated time and money in the primary, it’s very likely they might just skip voting if their candidate drops out of the race, or has absolutely no path forward. The “no vote” form of protest vote.
Sometimes when your candidate is knocked out of the race, you just forget to go to the primary to vote.
