You may be proven correct over time but I don’t see it. If Mr. Trump gets to 1,237 he’s the nominee. If he doesn’t then the normal rules take over and it goes to a contested election.
To change the rules takes a majority vote of the delegates at the convention. Why would the combined delegates of Mr. Trump and Mr. Cruz, which at this point exceed 1,237, vote for a change to allow anyone else to win the nomination. It makes no sense.

I will point you back to my original post in this thread for some of your answer:

THIS IS NOT NORMAL! The talking points have gone out trying to convince people that "The Big Steal" by Cruz and the establishment is "normal". IT IS NOT, this race should be over with Cruz needing 88% of the remaining delegates to take the nomination outright.
Normally it would but the establishment does not have their nominee yet. So they are going to try anything, by hook or by crook, to steal the thing. And the so called principled conservative, Ted Cruz, has joined in with their sleazy tactics.
What Ted Cruz is doing IS NOT PRINCIPLED CONSERVATISM, IT IS THEFT BY DECEPTION. When are some of you Freepers going to wake up and smell the coffee?
