No, it will not.

If Cruz secures a victory, it will be totally legitimate.

Trump got unfair advantages early; he’s had unfair advantages throughout the campaign with free ads from the media.

Cruz is working on securing second ballot vote both from Rubio and Trump supporters. He’s not buying them... he’s not Trump, but he is convincing them.

Whatever people think about Cruz’s process to the nomination, he will be a far more credible and successful candidate against Hillary than Trump would be.

Trump supporters and the general public won’t view it that way. Lawyering doesn’t work with the general public. As a wise person once said perception is everything. You’ll be looking at losing the house, the senate, and the presidency in one go.

>Whatever people think about Cruz’s process to the nomination, he will be a far more credible and successful candidate against Hillary than Trump would be.

Who exactly is Cruz going to win with? He can’t even win with Republican voters and yet you expect him to win with the General public? That’s just magical thinking.

It will be viewed as having "won" not based upon merit, but fraud. It will confirm what many believe, that their vote doesn't count in the face of the Establishment's wishes. The process will be viewed as dishonest. While Cruz didn't create the system, his "victory" will be tarred and he will be viewed as dishonorable. Deservedly so.

Cruz cannot win against Hillary. Because no one likes him. He’s not gonna get crossover voters.

I really hate to see the delegate process (which favored Trump mightily is Missouri and a couple of other states) misrepresented so deeply.

It reminds me of the sudden rush to “But he won the popular vote!” in 2000, when that was never the standard for winning the presidency. If we’re going to argue style, substance, positions, and electability, let’s at least do it with some intellectual honesty.
