‘Why in world should Trump be entitled to the nomination if he doesn’t have a majority of the delegates?’

And why in the world should Cruz be entitled to the nomination if he’s not the front-runner?

That ‘Trumps’ him.

Being fine with freed up delegates is seeking to disenfranchise voters. I don’t even remember who my delegate is. And I confess I don’t even know how GOP EEEE delegates are selected.

That might sound stupid to you, but guess what?

If I don’t know, you can dxxxm well be sure that most voters don’t know. If the front-runner gets knocked out at the convention, it will be hell to pay! And Cruz knows it. He just doesn’t care.

That’s being selfish. That’s why they are getting prepared for riots at the convention.

“Being fine with freed up delegates is seeking to disenfranchise voters”

No, it isn’t, that is absolutely patently ridiculous. If no one has a majority, no one is entitled. A plurality does not rule, sorry it doesn’t work that way. After the first ballot ALL the delegates are free to vote as they will. Telling them they have to vote for Trump (if he comes in first) is disenfranchising the so far LARGE majority of primary voters that are not voting for him.
