Good point. All the more reason IMO that a Trump/Cruz ticket is the strongest possible ticket. The MSM could smear Cruz because he’s not well known outside of us political junkies.
But the MSM can’t damage Trump, he’s been in the public eye for far too long for the press to be able to redefine him. He’s already a known quantity and he’s popular with the low information crowd that watches his shows.
I actually think Hillary will be easy to beat. She’s a lousy campaigner, the Clinton scandals are endless, and there is some innate sexism out there from people in both parties who don’t want a woman president. This is no time to panic and pick a candidate we think will be more electable. We should nominate the best possible potential president, which I think is Cruz.
