My meme is “Elite Conservative” and I don’t recall having read that elsewhere. I could easily be wrong though.

Ted Cruz has been a part of the establishment for a long time. He was an advisor to Bush 43 in the 2000 presidential race and worked on the Florida litigation. After which he worked at the DOJ and the FTC. Then he became solicitor general of Texas. After a brief stint in the private sector he was elected to the US Senate. I’m sure you know all this, but this hardly qualifies as an outsider’s career.

You're meaning behind elite conservatism is the exact definition everyone else calls GOPe, Elite/Establishment.

Do not RINOs Juan MeCain, Lindsey Graham, Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell all call themselves Conservatives?

I'm proud that Cruz has been a highly successful Republican Conservative lawyer, saving us from 8 years of Algore, defending America's 1st and 2nd amendment.

I do agree Trump's major appeal is he is not a politician.

What other Republican had the ball to call the Republican Senators Majority Leader a liar on the senate floor?

Cruz has core Conservative Principles & Values.

Ted Cruz was anti-establishment before Donald Trump was even a Republican.

Trump is a Chameleon by his own words, "I can be anyone I want."

Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Jeff Session are the only 3 Republican that have fought Obama/Hillary/Kerry as well as Mitch McConnell.
