Flippant sarcasm aside, let's look at just a very cursory summary of Cruz's resume:

Sure, why not:

Ted was originally my guy. I donated four times to his presidential campaign, and only stopped donating when he voted for TPA. In addition, I voted for Ted for U.S. Senate, in the primary, the run-off, and the general elections in Texas.

So why don't I support Ted now?

TPA
Corker bill
H1-B visas
"Poison Pill" amendment tickery
Teddy bears and soccer balls for illegals
Glenn Beck already swore him in as President
Married to Goldman Sachs
Robert Mercer
Wants to have a conversation about illegal invaders
Homo mega-donors
"NY values"
Me too!
Canadian born (not NBC)
Career government employee
Freshman Senator, wet behind the ears
Iowa dirty tricks
Loans? What loans?
Preachy, not natural (a personal turn-off)

I soured on Ted for all of the reasons above.

When Trump came on the scene, he came out of the gate saying the exact things I needed to hear from a candidate. Even still, it took me a few weeks of studying the man, to give him my support for president. I’m now comfortable with that choice, and have no expectations of changing it.

Please convince me that Trump doesn't have a staff that has drilled him on the conservative "buzz words" that will be the "exact things conservatives need to hear from a candidate".

I see an incessant narcissist who cannot effectively delineate his policies without sticking to those buzz words.

I see a man who sees himself as the anti-Obama, but I fear he will use Obama's, and Hillary's executive tactics for his own gain.

I don't believe what he says and I don't trust what he does!
