The Canadian, Ted Cruz, pulls a Marco Rubio. Wants Kasich out of the race. Otherwise he can't win election.

Cruz can't win unless Kasich and Trump pull out of the race. Mitt Romney busy preparing robocall text for Californians indicating Trump is dropping out of the GOP race ...

Kasich is a jerk. He has no path to the nomination. The only thing keeping him in this race is money from George Soros.

That is correct - the remaining delegate math doesn't work for Cruz or Kasich unless the other one drops out. If Trump doesn't get 50% on the first ballot it will become a 2 man race.

Neither does Cruz. So by that logic, Cruz is a jerk too.

(hmmm. I guess we already knew that)

As did Donald Trump, except he wanted the RNC to make him drop out. Trump was complaining that Kasich was taking "his" votes away from him.

Donald Trump calls for John Kasich to drop out

That seemed more about keeping Rule 40. If that happens, then Kasich & Rubio's delegates become unbound on the first ballot.

The winner take all states is where it hurts him the most.
Kasich supporters are not going to be supporting Donald Trump if Kasich pulls out and Ted and Donald know that.

Trump has yet to break 50% of the votes in any state.
