Creepy Cruz may be to some, but he knows well the GOPe will always be his enemy.
By allowing Bush and others to snuggle up, Cruz is playing the keep your enemies closer card.
Cruz knows well, the GOPe will not back him if comes down to the convention.
So what’s Cruz doing about it?
Cruz is working to win 1237 delegates at the ballot box, period. That’s the only way he becomes the nominee.
If Cruz can gain support from his enemies towards that goal, why the heck not?
But Cruz isn’t going to get to 1237. He’s just going to keep Trump from that—and then the GOPe will swoop down and put their own candidate in.
Cruz’s blind ambition is screwing the country.
