Wasn’t it Walker who said that the nominee might be someone who isn’t currently running? Cruz is the willing tool of the establishment. He’s not going to get the nomination, and he knows that. Once he’s fulfilled his assigned function of blocking Trump, he’ll get a pat on the head, maybe have his campaign debts paid, or promised funding for his senate re-election campaign in 2018.
Ted Cruz, the Stealth Bush, and establishment toady.
I heard Karl Rove make that statement.
Ted will get a primary opponent in two years. A bunch of people down in Texas won’t be so enthusiastic for him the second time around. This 2016 presidential campaign will be the high point of his political career. After that it’s all gonna go downhill for him. Not to worry though. I’m sure the establishment has a nice lucrative DC lobbyist job all lined up for him as his reward for being their puppet.
Ridiculous! The establishment will tolerate neither candidate. While they sneer at and distrust Trump, they lividly hate Cruz. Ask McConnell, whose almost treasonous sell outs and lies Cruz exposed.
It’s a win-win situation. Because either way the GOP is a dead man walking. There is no going forward form here. It is done for. How can this party possible reconcile it’s differences? The short answer is they can’t because they are irreconcilable differences.
