Ben is an idiot. This will play into the theme that Cruz is a nasty guy and not win over any of the Trump supporters later on.
Cruz should get nasty about Hillary or Bernie and Obama. That would win over a lot more people. Jeb’s attack on Trump got him nowhere.
People want to see someone attack will full vigor against Obama and his administration, plus the republican establishment. Cruz needs to have some quotable zingers against those people and get the focus off of Trump.
Agree. This is absolutely idiotic and would backfire on Cruz.
I really don’t think there is anything Cruz could do to win, at this point. However, to make a great showing at the debate, and to stop his followers from leaving him, your idea is best: he should come up with genius points against Obama and the Clintons. He should NOT sling mud at Trump and Rubio. He should show some greatness. At the very least, he could then end his campaign with class and have us all remember him as a genius conservative. He can run again.
