GOPe hates Cruz
GOPe hates Trump much more
GOPe controls enough delegates to deny Trump the nomination
GOPe does not control enough delegates to give Kasich the nomination
I’m pretty sure of the first 3 items. Point 4 is understandably being hotly debated here. Many, presumably yourself, believe the GOPe is all poweful and have total control of the delegate voting. I don’t agree.
I agree to a point-—they can’t, and won’t give Kasich the nomination. They will pull a dark horse like Ryan out and insist he’s the “compromise” candidate.
They don’t yet control enough delegates to deny Trump the nomination, especially when you start looking into Carson, the VI, the other dropout candidates. Trump has plenty of cushion.
