Wrong.
The establishment hates Cruz almost as much as they hate and fear Trump. Trump will be the biggest embarrassment to the establishment and they think they will have better opportunities to control him.
I think the establishment is screwed either way and would gladly have Hillary win over either of them., but if we win, they want the "lesser of two perceived evils", from their standpoint.
but the facts are the establishment is now backing Cruz and Cruz has no problem being on their side as he will not disavow them or even attack them which showed last night in the Hannity program when Hannity repeatedly asked him about it.
instead Cruz just kept saying over and over like a broken record don’t vote for anyone else and vote for me as I can then beat trump
