Maybe it is true that Cruz is better at scolding than he is at convincing.
Trump has some of the same issues, but at least he doesn’t cloak it in obviously Christianesque garb. And with at least some kind of method of making deals, he might prove more effective with Congress. They know he’s a hyperbole machine, they can dance the Kabuki dance along with him for the sake of shallow public politics, then converge on some kind of sane answer.

Both of them use an “obviously Christianesque garb” when they talk about issues on the campaign trail. The difference is that Cruz is being authentic when he says he’s an active church member who regularly reads the bible. Trump is not.
@Post 38 - I’m with you. I think much of the nasty debate we see on these threads is pointless. In the end, each of us has one potential vote in the primary and one potential vote in the actual election.
There is no perfect candidate nor is there any single person who will erase our decades long shift to the left. I think we would best be served by the person who will steer us back towards the right and bring the most Americans on board with that.
