It bodes quite well for our future that people have spotted a phony snake oil salesman like Ted Cruz for what he is.
the fact is that Ted Cruz just doesn’t appeal to the average guy like Trump does.. he debates for points instead of message.. I could see it from the start.. I bet Ronald Regan campaigned in more factories and industrial plants in a month than Ted Cruz will all election season.. Unfortunately for Cruz Trump doesn’t have to but he does
those are the voters who turn elections into landslides .. you don’t start wave elections by trying to impress every little old church lady you are as pure a christian and Conservative as her minister.. Huckabee found that out.. Reagan didn’t wear his religion on his sleeve he talked economic policy to turn the country around again,, oh look Trump’s message...
in the end Lunch Box Johnny wants to know how are you going to seal the border so my wages can start going back up and how are you going to keep our jobs from going overseas.. there is only ONE candidate that makes those two things virtually his whole campaign.. add that he’s been a proven success at what he does in the business world and that he doesn’t take crap from anybody and you have a winning formula ..
Cruz cannot compete with that.. just like GHW Bush could not compete with Reagan when he hit the sweet spot with everyday Americans.. the average guy would love to work for Alpha male Trump.. They like him and his Pattonish style.. not so much Cruz who is a wonkish ideologue whose personality is anything but Alpha male
and then Hillary is a lot like Carter in 1980 and you remember what happened to him with Joe Lunchbox
do you want to jump on Trump’s plane and fly to Florida to play a few rounds of golf and then hit the beach with the babes or go to Ted Cruz’s house for coffee and talk policy wonk stuff?
that’s what Cruz is up against with Joe Six pack.. the only hope for Cruz was for Trump to implode and then take over.. well that hasn’t happened and for all the Cruzbots it’s getting very frustrating to realize Trump(who they knew would implode and their guy take over) probably isn’t going to implode anytime soon and they are now running out of time to where even the GOPe people have pretty much realized what has happened
Cruz decided to play it safe for 7 months and not go after Trump.. well sometimes you have to play the cards you dealt yourself.. IMHO Cruz should have gone after Trump right off the bat with his past associations with Democrats and his views back then.. he waited too long and now people just don’t care now,, they view Trump as a leader of a huge anti establishment movement.. For Ted Cruz to overcome that will be YUUUGE
