The delegate math is essentially impossible. The contested convention your silly buzz-cut supporters and the GOPe VIPS are fantasizing about isn't going to work. Despite having all kinds of new friends in the establishment, they're not going to "broker" you in.
You're done. Bye. Quit wasting everyone's time and money.
This trolling vanity post itself is insulting and offensive, and it appears the only purpose is to be bait for a flame war between supporters of Cruz and supporters of Trump. It certainly unfolds that way throughout.
What purpose does it provide on this forum?
BOTH campaigns need to stop with the cheap shots at the wives. BOTH CAMPAIGNS!
Don’t interrupt their lack of thought processing. Facts are inconvenient things.
Besides, The Trump supporter’s are very much like Jeb Bush, he is going to win it all without the base, or potentially a large portion of it.
I mean after all, since we do not just support Trump, well just because he’s TRUMP, we aren’t really conservatives, we are just place holders for the establishment oligarchy.
It’s a given that ALL of the democrat’s voting for Trump in the primaries are going to vote for him in the general, so to h@ll with everyone else.
It would be funny if it wasn’t so depressing.
A life long liberal who is now a populist, who has no governing conservative principals, and who will make a “deal” with anyone is lauded as the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Trump is an interesting guy, it will be interesting to see what he is willing to negotiate away to make his deals.
It’s only reasonable that Trumpers reserve the right to follow the Romney Rule and write in their preferred candidate. After all, if Cruz supporter Romney is good enough for Cruz his advice should be good enough for Trumpers.
It is not a brokered convention if Trump does not get to 1237. It is a contested convention. Big difference. Cruz will win a contested convention IMO. No way they will go to a brokered convention and bring in Jeb or Ryan.
In this election, Cruz is the Dole, McCain and Romney candidate.
You really are clueless. Those crossover votes are working class Americans fed up with BOTH PARTIES. Trump represents the antidote to the establishment. You are on the wrong side unless you truly are part of the GOP establishment. In that case, get stuffed!
You should start by learning the definition of a “brokered convention”.
We will NOT HAVE a “brokered convention”.
Going to the second ballot is an “open” or “contested” convention, but it is NOT “brokered”.
The GOPe have NO SAY in what happens on a second ballot.
Yes “Really”!
“leader” going in counts for nothing without 1237 delegates.
Less than 1237 going in and we have a second ballot.
Cruz wins.
Logical fallacy: too few alternatives.
So all of Trump’s delegates will vote for Ted? IS that how that fantasy plays out?
Poll: Most Republicans want the GOP to unite behind Trump

Yes, if you can’t win, you drop out.
And if Cruz thinks that he can still the election, he is going to lose the General without Trump voters!
The Establishment knows that.
Get used to saying President Trump!
Bleeping bookmark for bleeping later.
You guys are living in your own virtual reality!
The Donald says requiring a delegate majority is "unfair."
Not at all. If it goes to the convention, then everyone knows the primary enters a new phase where new rules apply. And under those rules, Ted Cruz apparently has the advantage.
