With Cruz and Kasich still in the game, Trump will not be able to achieve the 1,237 required delegates to win on the first vote at the Republican Convention to be held July 18–21 in Cleveland, Ohio. On the first vote the delegates won are committed to vote for the primary winners in their district, state, etc. based on the particular rules of the state RNC apparatus. If Trump does not have the requisite 1,237 votes on this first ballot, it goes to a second vote. On the second vote, however, the delegates are uncommitted so can vote for whomever they choose or the party bosses tell them to vote for. Most establishment Republicans do not want Trump, so a second vote is likely the end of the Trump candidacy. We could see a 3rd and 4th vote before a candidate is chosen. Right now, rule 40 –which was designed to stop Ron Paul in 2012– only allows those who have won 8 states to be considered. If this rule is not changed, the only two who can be considered are Trump and Cruz. Expect this rule to be changed just before the convention, allowing anyone to be considered, including Kasich. On the second vote, it is likely to be Cruz since there is such fear and hatred for Trump’s populous policies and the fact that the RNC and others cannot control or manipulate Trump. The RNC does not like Cruz because of his grandstanding in the Senate, but Cruz has been compromised and can therefore be controlled by blackmail. Additionally, Cruz has very deep ties into the Bush Crime family so that is a plus. The power brokers at the RNC will run an endgame to insert a key operative into the VP slot and the cake is baked.
Now the question is, can a Cruz campaign win against a Hillary or a Bernie? I believe it is likely that the Trump supporters will feel cheated and thus either not vote or vote in opposition for the DNC candidate to show their displeasure to the RNC. The RNC has been fully uncloaked by this fiasco and will be history. The RNC knows this, but a Hillary or a Bernie president is much better for the RNC than a Trump in any event and so we will have business as usual. The only benefit I can see in having another Democrat in the White House at noon on January 20th, 2017, is that when the massive financial bubble finally bursts, the Democrats will be blamed.
I’m not sure if this Republic based on the US Constitution and the rule of law can survive the criminality we are witnessing in every branch of our government, but there will be a reset of the economy and of the current political structure. The only question for me is what will this new structure look like? History has taught us that after a major reset (excepting 1776), the new regime is almost always much, much worse than the prior. We live in very interesting times. Buckle your seat-belts, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.
