A billion dollar plus general election.

Cruz has raised 34 million.
Eventually the RNC and Republican mega-donors will have to be activated. They won’t back Cruz. He won’t have anywhere to go.
Like I said, You have provided 0 evidence that Cruz will not be able to raise funds for a general election.
Just because you say that the “establishment will not” back Cruz in the general election doesn’t make it so.
Neither does the fact that their are other sources of funding that “take my ball and go home” establishment figures, the scant few that there may be.
