Trump is the real deal. You are the one who has been misled by the worst type of Elmer Gantry style high functioning lying alcoholic. It wouldn't take more than a cursory examination of Cruz's past to confirm this. He is a master of deception.
I will repeat myself. Both of Ted's parents were alcoholics when he was growing up. His sister actually died from alcoholism and drug abuse. Ted was arrested when he was a teen for possession of a case of stolen booze. When he got into college he had a long list of problems with alcohol which was one of the reasons he made few friends. Asked recently about his use of alcohol by Anderson Cooper, he said that he was a Scotch Man, but extolled the virtues of whiskey and other hard liquors.
If you ever see Ted's bulbous drinker's nose without a lot of makeup smeared on it... you will see that it is full of broken corpuscles. His eyes are often watery looking and he looks a full ten years older than Marco Rubio who is actually the same age as he is. Those of us who grew up in families with a history of alcohol problems such as myself have a very easy time spotting a high functioning alcoholic. Ted fits the bill in every way. The number one symptom we recognize is someone who lies all the time about nearly everything even stuff that makes no difference. That is Ted.

Not that I am disputing you, because I don’t know one way or the other, but where did you get this information?
