Carly Fiorina is explaining the rules of the Republican Party to rival Donald Trump as she looks to assert why the race for the Republican nomination could go to a contested convention.
In an interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Thursday, a day after Ted Cruz named her as his running mate, Fiorina said Trump will get “shellacked by Hillary Clinton” if he is the nominee for the Republican Party, but asserted that he could lose the nomination if he doesn’t get the majority.
“Donald Trump just figured it out, but wow, this system has been in place for a very long time,” she said, referring to his claims that he should be named the nominee even if he falls slightly short of the required 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination.
“I think what we need in November is a very clear choice,” she said.

She got so far in her campaign why not come back all brazed face. What world does she live in. The news should should stop mentioning Cruz and Kasich they are done!! Let trump go on to try to win the actual election. This game is horrible for the party.
The same polling techniques that predict a Clinton landslide also predicted that Clinton and Bush would be nominated with minimal opposition. What polling, and election results suggest is that most of the voters, as opposed to those who answer polling, are a “wild card”. If indeed what Sanders and Trump have indicated is that much of the electorate is totally mad at those running the government, then the election is highly unpredictable, though it does appear that a major political realignment is likely, similar to that following the “Era of good feelings” in 1824 (all parties disintegrated and new ones emerged), and the elections of 1856-1860 (in which the Whigs disappeared and the Democrats splintered, and new parties emerged)
