Unless RNC darling Rubio drops out, he could very well be our nominee? Is that how this works?


No. The GOPe plan is to protect Cruz as a plausible conservative while he racks up as many delegates as possible. If Cruz is close to Trump in delegates they will steal the nom from him/us at the convention and present Cruz as a “conservative” alternative.

I don't see them protecting Cruz under any circumstances whatsoever. He has called McConnell a liar and many other things to shake things up and piss too many people off.

it seems more plausible for them to nominate McCain then to protect Cruz..

It is almost as people have lost all knowledge of GOP history and any logical thought in their emotional Trump madness.

No, this stupid stealing the primary win from Trump is not going to happen. The GOP would like to survive long enough to see their families again after the convention.

But let's say it did happen in some wacko fantasy future, THE GOP WILL NOT PICK CRUZ, THEY HATE THE GUY. That has to be one of the more bizarre political reads I have read in a while.
