Cruz is delusional. An honest fight? Cruz would not have gotten anywhere if he hadn't drafted off Trump early on to gain traction.
To think that early on I contributed a few dollars to the Cruz. But greater Freeper hearts and minds than mine were fooled, too.
Look at Cruz’s resume. He’s always been a Bush dynasty guy, from GWBs first run for President. It does seem there was a favorite son strategy where all the crybabies would win their home states, then give their delegates to Jeb.
Yep. Cruz never had an anti-establishment bone in his body until he self servingly jumped on the TEA party express.

I too regret the money I sent Cruz. His behavior since losing has been quite childish and counter-productive.
But, I sidagree that his running was a detraction from Trump. Cruz and Trump were "outsiders" and between them they provided just what was needed to prevent low-energy Jeb, who was the choice of the MSM, from gaining any traction.
If Cruz had played a little nicer, he would be the Republican Vice-presidential candidate with a great chance in 2020 or 2024. This was his opportunity and he frittered it away.
