That’s some list.

I still think Trump is on his path to 1237 before or after June 7 and before the convention.

I enjoy watching the smart, in-the-know punditry and advisor class being exposed as naked emperors. It’s not their republic, it’s ours.

But I retain a smidgen of skepticism that things will “go the way they are supposed to.”

The pundits lie about pledged delegates Trump currently holds and the available remaining delegate allocations.

Top Republicans will try to force more transparency at the party’s national convention in July, aiming to scrap their 1,500-page rule book in favor of simpler procedures that they hope will head off arcane maneuvers designed to deny Donald Trump the presidential nomination.

Sure they will.

Trump’s current (March 18) total is 691, if my source is correct.

IOW, no, they're not, but they're trying to get the media to go along with the meme-building, to make it appear that most of the party mechanics are operating fairly. Instead of what it sez in the PR, the work will be going into harmless-looking arcane changes to make it easier to hide the fact that a majority of delegates won't be able to elect the nominee.
