I thought Cruz could still theoretically win, but he needs nearly 90% of the remaining delegates. What I wonder is, what will he do if it becomes mathematically impossible? Will he stay in as a spoiler and hope for a contested convention, or will he cede to Trump in an effort to destroy the GOPe? If he’s truly an outsider, anti-establishment guy, he should do the latter (cede to Trump). However, I think he’ll do the former and hand the convention to the GOPe.

“What I wonder is, what will he do if it becomes mathematically impossible?”

Until Trump gets 1237, or nominated on the first ballot, Cruz can wn the nomination.

Bigtoona got it right.

• GOPe Priority ONE: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority TWO: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority THREE: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority FOUR: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority FIVE: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority SIX: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority SEVEN: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority EIGHT: Lose to Hillary
• GOPe Priority NINE: Force Cruz aboard as Trump's VP
• GOPe Priority TEN: Force Ryan on everyone (see Priority ONE)

And which one will the GOPe select? Remember the convention rules haven’t been established
and approved at the Convention. The rules will determine the process who and how the nominee
will be selected if neither has the 1237 during the first vote.

If he really, truly cared about America, he'd already be out. He doesn't give one spit about America, or you and I, or 'upholding the Constitution'. On the very off chance that Cruz actually got elected to POTUS, it would be Dubya Part II. He won't get elected, however, and will go down in history as the biggest stooge for the GOPe.
