Imagine Cruz gets the nomination by getting Rubio and Kasich delegates while flipping just enough from Trump’s allotted delegates. After the deal is done he presents Jeb Bush as his VP pick. GOPe wins again.
The way he's being pushed in the media as the only "real conservative" who is "anti-Establishment like Trump" is disgusting. You cannot tell me that he would even CONSIDER giving his delegates to Trump in a brokered convention. Like you said, he would side with the GOPe globalists in a New York minute.
Every single person from now on who votes Cruz is essentially agreeing that this would be okay with them. I'd be interested to know how anyone who's planning on voting Cruz after him climbing into bed with the "open borders" group can justify or rationalize it. Anyone? About the only honest answer is that border security/US sovereignty just doesn't mean that much to you.
If I thought the same thing about Trump -- that he would possibly turn his back on conservatives and side with the pro-illegal immigration globalists -- I could never vote for him. I would just leave it blank. Without a control on illegals, this is the last election that is even remotely possible to win. Once they're allowed to vote and pushed onto the welfare dependency, it's over.
As long as we're posting from the grassy knoll, don't forget the part about President Cruz being impeached for being constitutionally ineligible for the office.
I hope that none of the Bushes are FReepers.
That's how Reagan got stuck with Bush I.
