If Trump gets the nomination, he gets the US population involved in cleaning out the DC sewer, both political parties. They lose control.
If Cruz gets the nomination, there's a much better chance he'll lose, and that's okay as long as there's no house cleaning in DC. But if Cruz wins? Well, he's already somewhat compromised with the kind of money-hungry campaign he's running and his proven inability to influence the US Senate from within. On trade and invader labor, he's just fine. On favoring big banks, he's got suspicious ties.
So for the elite, there is a "lesser of two evils". It's Cruz.
Trump is our once-in-a-century opportunity to save the nation. What is Ted Cruz's hurry? He'll still be young, and a more experienced leader in the US Senate, in four years.

What is Ted Cruz's hurry?
Saving the Constitution and our liberty.
wow, I wish I would have said that. Perfect nutshell.
Bingo. Yeb is their first choice, but Cruz will serve the establishment purposes just as well. They have already shown that they will front a loser to keep the status quo (Dole, McCain, Romney)
We have Christmas company here in Maui... my niece and granddaughter.
Niece, daughter and I veered onto politics ... a total no no in our family. It happened because she is a Human Resources Director for a firm on the Island and remarked as to how Obama care is playing hell with their benefit system.
I just remarked that Obamacare would be repealed if either Cruz or Trump were elected.
To my surprise both of them were ... ugh, I hate Trump... I can’t stand him.
Immediately after this outburst, my daughter put down the no politics rule again so nothing more was said, but I was surprised as my daughter is conservative and my niece is ... an unknown factor.
