Jeb and Romney will be meeting up with Cruz in Indiana and together target Trump. Their plan is to cause mischief and deny Trump winning that state and all its delegates.

but they want to see the billionaire do more to mend fences with the party establishment.

I'm happy to say that that isn't how Trump works.

These stupid GOPers better go to Trump on bended knee.

Maybe even beg.

There is a big Republican meeting in Florida today. I see that Cruz was invited and maybe Kasich. I hope that Trump was well represented. I think the meeting is about setting the rules for the convertion. A little late IMHO.

Will be very interesting to see who Trump selects as his running mate. I’M thinking Rudy Giuliani.

I think Team Trump will start floating a Californian before the primary.

Giuliani puts NY in the red column. The rest is history.

Giuliani doesn't make it any more red than Trump himself does.

I think the priority will be someone from the west with California being the big prize if he dangles a local in front of them before the primary.

Yes yes. The reality that they will have to deal with Trump is finally settling in. Maybe they will apologize to Christie, too?

For the life of me, I can’T think of a GOP Californian who could help Trump win the state. Don’T say Fiorina.

I’d think Martinez of New Mexico would have been a shoe-in until she started bad-mouthing him.

No, me neither.

But a Californian is really only useful if he floats them before the primary. If he thinks he has the delegates, it will probably just be someone from the Western States. He’s too tied to the east coast at this point. He needs to pick someone from out west to help him in the general.

I just hope Trump can avoid another political “poison pill” like Reagan had to swallow with GHWB.

The GOPe has been exposed so much especially as to possible convention tactics that they have become neutered and are realizing it

“If the GOPe is cozying up to Trump it must mean he’s one of them, right?”

Not quite. The GOPe was willing to tolerate Cruz because they knew they could control him. They are approaching Trump from a position of weakness, hoping Trump will make them relevant.
