This is true if Trump and Cruz do in fact control the Rules Committee.

But do we have a good feeling yet that Trump + Cruz will actually have the majority of the delegates on their side?

It is in their mutual interest above all else to cooperate on insuring that only two nominations will be made and Kasich won’t be one of them. Or Paul Ryan. On other issues there will probably be some differences.

This should be a slam dunk, goodbye John Kasich. But I wonder.
