Trump is an east coast liberal and only a nominal Republican, IMHO. He talks a good game, but I'm not sure about his core principles.
Cruz is a proven conservative and a dedicated Christian from the heartland. He appeals to the conservative base, the South, the West, and flyover country. If anyone can get Hispanics to vote R, it would be Cruz.
I've heard that line before that "Cruz adds nothing to the ticket" and it's a lie IMHO
Completely right, Zooker.
