Trump's sitting at 37 percent. There has never been a GOP nominee with fewer than 50 percent in the modern primary system.

The majority of the GOP has spoken and they have rejected Trump. The argument, "but he'd win a national primary" doesn't hold, because every state, and every republican had an opportunity to vote Trump, and the majority chose someone else.

If I'm looking at that total, I'd be saying that the will of the GOP was for a contested convention to hammer out a better nominee.

Trumpbots seem determined to destroy the party just to see their candidate through. Plenty of us are gonna stand by and watch the Trumptanic sink.

Go vote for Hillary then.

Would Trump back Cruz?

Of course not, because any scenario where Cruz beats Trump is on the second or third ballot at the convention where the winner of the popular vote (by a pretty substantial margin) is being robbed of the nomination. That's not the point. I'm not saying whether Cruz should or shouldn't. I'm saying Cruz is a spineless worm and will back Trump in the fall because that's just who he is.

He hitched his wagon to the Trump train when the campaign began and now he's flip flopped because he can't really do that when the field is narrowed.

Cruz prob will back Trump.   Ive never felt it was all that personal between the two more of a competitive thing.   If Trump fails in Nov and Hillary has a awful 4 years Cruz would by default get all of the Trump voters in 2020.   If he doesn't and stays nevertrump then he will get a quick exit 2020 primaries.
