2. He could just release his delegates and let them decide what to do
at their county conventions.

5. Or he could hold them until closer to convention
which might suggest to the remaining candidates that they clean up the campaign and stick to issues.

6. "endorse" is just saying words
he can say whom he prefers if/when he chooses to.

9. No he doesn't, does he. Can't he leave it up to them individually?
How does it work with delegates? Do they have to be told?
