Perhaps, even now, they are working together.
By apparently fighting it out like this, the kiddies get virtually no Oxygen and are left scrambling for scraps. It wouldn’t surprise me if this is one big act.
Anyway, we’ll see. If Trump picks Cruz as his running mate, then I’ll suspect my theory is correct.
I respectfully disagree with your theory. I think the animus is real.
Like it or not, however, the two of them may be compelled to work together to avoid a brokered convention and some schlub ‘compromise candidate’ taking the prize. I hope they are each big enough, wise enough, and humble enough to do that, however unpleasant or awkward that may be.
It hasn't looked that was since Iowa, maybe earlier. Last night, what seemed to the in unison was Trump, Rubio, and Carson calling out Cruz as a liar. Add to that, no one defended Cruz, not even himself.
I can't imagine how that performance gained Cruz any supporters. But it does seem to move Rubio way past the criticisms in the last debate.
I thought Rubio won in that his performance not only probably stopped the loss of support and might have won some of the other wannabee supporters over to him.
I don’t think they are working together anymore.
