God, please let that be true.

I honestly cringe a little at the idea of President Trump.

It's not. If Trump falters, the GOPe will get Bush, or, if worst comes to worst (from their vantage point), Walker. Cruz cannot pull in voters, at this point in his career, well enough to overcome the establishment's advantage. In 8 years, when Cruz has had more experience and has more positively established himself in the public eye, then yes. But for now, the realistic choices are Trump or Bush, with an outside chance of Walker, if the GOPe feels that he is controllable enough.
