Well I like to deal in reality and the reality is that Trump will be at or near 1237 on June 7th. At that point if he is 50 or so delegates short its an easy makeup. He either captures the needed number by seducing a few of the unbound delegates or offers Kasich VP which is what he wants and gets the makeup number from Kasich’s 143 delegates.
Cruz if he is dumb enough to try to stay in it til June 7th which I hightly doubt will be hundreds of delegates short and no way to make it up.
Trump wins on the first ballot and we all move on to the general election.
The problem is he as to be at least at 1,237, any less and I think it may spell doom for him.. We shall see I guess. Hope you are right though.
Perhaps - but Kasich's delegates are not obligated to vote for Trump just because he tells them to. And if Cruz is as good at getting his supporters selected as Kasich delegates as he has been about getting his supporters selected as Trump delegates, then there is a lot smaller pool of votes to be picked up by choosing Kasich as VP.
