>> C’mon. It’s not even close.

Then let it play out, and support the winner.

What are you worried about? If “it’s not even close”, then what does Trump have to fear?

... or maybe it’s “closer” than you’d care to admit.

Cruz is down by 200 delegates. About 24% behind.

But Trump needs over 60% winning of remaining delegates to wrap this thing up.

That’s not going to happen, especially since he has been winning states with only about 37% of the vote so far.

Mathmatically, Trump would have to just BLOW things out of the water and reverse his entire campaign’s course to win it outright.

Obviously its even more challenging for Cruz. Like 90-95% win rate of remaining delegates. Practically impossible.

But given the situation, if you were playing a basketball game and were in the 3rd quarter, and the opposition had to increase their winning percentage by 150% in order to win, would you give up? Not a perfect analogy, really the closest sport to the situation would likely be cricket or something with a minimum set runs/points to win, but you get the idea right?

Cruz would be flat out insane to throw in the towel at this point. He is not helping the GOPe, he is trying to win his nomination. In the process, he has been picking off delegates at the state conventions, secureing Cruz people for 2nd/3rd ballot votes...

Trump will lose in the convention if he doesn’t win beforehand. Cruz, will not.

Fog Horn, never less, Rush Limbo gave a clear picture in a transcript I saw yesterday, how the GOP/DNC work as being private business enterprises setting their own rules. That’s why they fighting Donald Trump with ALL their tools available, to survive and protect their own prosperous gravy trains and survivals to stop Mr. Donald Trump from taking over !!!
