Two problems

No way Marco wants to be associated with Trump

Secondly that's not the way the delegates work. The delegates do what they want not what the candidate wants. So if the option is Cruz or Trump, there are not a lot of Rubio supporters who are going to pick Trump. And Kasich’s delegates are no way going to Trump even if you pick Kasich as VP.

You need to understand if Trump does not have 1237 going in to the convention, Cruz wins.

You need to understand that is your guess of what might happen.

Going to study the convention rules to see if a candidate can direct their delegates to vote a certain way on the first vote...

Thanks for posting. There is mucho confusion about what Rubio can and cannot do vis a vis “His” Delegates. I read the whole post looking for something sensible and didn’t see a thing until yours.

And you are right of course. Rubio has little or no control over those delegates. He gave it up once he dropped out.
