Because of the 50% rule so many states have, every non Trump Republican except Cruz dropping out will HELP Trump.

The Republican establishment can't beat Trump and they've realized this. Now they'll just do whatever it takes to deny him a delegate majority.

I disagree with your assessment, BRTD.  As long as Rubio stays in, the more likely he deprives Cruz of critical wins in WTA states.  Cruz actually does quite well against Trump 1-on-1; Michigan exit polls had him 43-41, with the rest choosing no one.  I think Cruz would easily beat Trump pretty much everywhere west of the Mississippi in a 2-person race, even in California.

There aren't many actual WTA states though. The only big ones are Florida (which may be a lost cause) and Ohio (where Kasich is clearly strongest.)
