Cruz-Kasich Alliance the Latest GOP Stunner
< < Go Back
Voters will soon decide whether their plan to split states was act of desperation or clever move to block Trump.
If you want to see one more amazing thing in this presidential campaign, just wait a few days. It will come along.
And so it was on Sunday night that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich announced that they had agreed to divide key remaining primary states between them, giving each a better chance to stop Donald Trump head-to-head and force a contested Republican convention.
Is this move a desperate attempt by two failing campaigns to use collusive tactics to stop the clear front-runner, with little chance of success and dangerous repercussions? Or is it a clever move to finally allow real Republicans a chance to show that they want a different outcome, and in the process prevent a general-election disaster?
The answer is that it appears to be some of both.
