This isn’t about Trump. It’s about Cruz’s tendency to have an often feeble-sounding excuse for everything.
Or that he does these off the wall things & then has these peculiar excuses.
It’s like he’s a kid, pushing the boundaries to see how much he can get away with.
It’s kinda insulting. (He thinks we’re stupid. Or doormats.)
Actually it is about Trump, because the question is was this a random error or an error of judgment and why did Cruz commit it and Trump didn't. It can tell us a lot about what kind of Presidency they will run.
If Trump is as good a chief executive as he holds himself out to be he controls far less then Cruz does, but he does control the big things, like who are the key people who are making decisions and executing things on his behalf. You worry about what business you are in and what business you are not in.
You fix bugs and stand behind features. Unfortunately, Cruz is telling us that this mailing was a feature, not a bug. What maladroit actions will his administration undertake when he is President? Will he clear out the top of the government and put good people in charge - people he can trust not to embarrass him with the people's power and trust? Does he have no one he can listen to who can tell him how stupid this is and what the ramifications will be.
‘It’s like he’s a kid, pushing the boundaries to see how much he can get away with.’
It’s been noted that not one but both Cruz’ parents had issues with alcohol. Psychologists call people raised in that kind of environment, “adult children of alcoholics.”
