Rove and Priebus’s plan to make their brokered conention scheme work is to declare Cruz ineligible at the convention and appropriate his delegates and give them to Jeb.
I agree, they plan to do something tricky about Cruz’ eligibility. If they do not, the democrats certainly will if Cruz is nominated. Trump is on the right track here, so stop hating him for it, please. Better for Cruz to fix this now, and if he cannot, then withdraw right away. I suspect, come convention time, they will not only take Cruz delegates away, they will also take Rubio delegates away because he has an eligibility issue too. What I don’t see is the rationale for giving them ALL to Bush!
I hear what you're saying but what gives them the power to "declare Cruz ineligible"? Based on what law? If nothing else Cruz could contest it legally. We'll see. .
