“Depriving Trump of the nomination because he lost to another candidate is unfair??”
Your case would be much stronger if Cruz came in within 100 or so delegates of Trump; And if he showed any strength in the NorthEast. Remember, Cruz lost the whole SEC primary and Florida badly.
Use http://www.270towin.com/ and fill in the states after the next 2 weeks. Trump will dominate population centers.
My case is that if Trump gets the majority of the total delegates he gets the nomination.
Same with the other two.
But naturally Trump is demanding the nomination even if he doesn't get those delegates and someone else does, claiming that not handing it to him is :cheating, unfair, ....
