Even the Cruz supporters want America to be Great Again.
Cruz would be the President and not on the receiving end of tremendous pressure to conform to the C of C in return for guaranteed wealthy futures. A new Congressmen in either house gets to DC and is shown a future that is full of money and perks on the once side and limited to his salary on the other with guarantee that the Organization will spend a lot of money and effort to beat him in the next election. And if he chose the golden road and loses his next election his future is still assured by the CofC. A small number resist the gold, a very small number.
