Well yeah, but I doubt Trump’s campaign is going to go anywhere but do more presidential campaigning. These two genuinely like each other. Cruz is also playing long ball that many don’t seemed to understand or want to think about, and that likely means his presidency may come in later years. He’s thinking multi-dimensionally and not tic tac toe.
Many conservatives have fallen for Trump’s ruse. Cruz wants their support. Cruz is smarter than many believe. He’s certainly smart enough to play Trump and his followers.
