Well, it seems clear that Trump will have a strong plurality at the end of the primary process. Will he be derailed?
If Trump doesn’t win on the 1st ballot, then all hell breaks loose, figuratively speaking. Who would be the compromise candidate who wins on a 2nd or 3rd ballot?? Jeb Bush??? Mitt Romney even?? After all a convention doesn’t have to limit itself to candidates who ran during the primaries.
I’m guessing they will try to shove Ryan thru. After all, he’s the speaker....even though he didn’t want the job. I’m sure he would agree to being president. Afterall, it’s for the Country.
If the delegates cannot agree on Trump or Cruz after multiple ballots, I’d take Gingrich, Perry, Jindal, or Walker. (In no particular order.)
