Why not. Trump in his own words has adopted the Number One stance of the Establishment, don’t shut down the government for whatever reason. There is no other way to spin his “Cruz acts like a maniac in the Senate”. The “Establishment” is letting out a sigh of relief today, of the “he is the one us” variety.
If you believe that, its OK.
Cruz needs to say that he has stood up to Obama and the Republican Establishment, he does not need to trash Trump and get the conflict going that will allow Rubio or some other RINO-GOPe candidate to come through as the “I’m not the mean, nasty fighting candidates that Trump and Cruz are”.
