It seems to me that Trump is REALLY setting a great table for Cruz down the line. He is striking gold with his stand on illegal immigration, and Cruz is the only republican who has said Trump is right to focus on this issue. If/when Trump gets tired of this and pulls out, Cruz will be in the position to snag all these voters.
Trump appeals to a much wider swath of the electorate than Cruz, so while conservatives might follow whoever he endorses I am doubtful Cruz can expand beyond that. And it doesn’t look like Trump is going to voluntarily give in anytime soon.
” setting a great table for Cruz down the line”... or stealing his thunder now.
Could go either way.
I really really hope it plays out that way. Donald Trump would have been one of the last people I’d consider voting for, but if my other choices are Yeb Bush and Hillary Clinton?
