You are missing my point entirely.
I’m not for Cruz any more than Trump. I just want to beat Hillary, or any other Dem.... and the Donald’s loose cannon mouth is talking himself out of the nomination... and if nominated, the general election... which is all that counts.
P.S. Old political rule; “Name calling and boorish behavior is like a very short time loan from a loan shark; it gets you something for a few weeks or months, but then, “the note” comes due... and the swing voters, who decide an election, hate the name callers/boors for it.
Trump’s consistent under-performance will cause more than a few delegates to doubt Trump’s chances in the General.... and if more than a few dozen desert him, he is finished.

You are misconstruing your position completely.
If you really were neutral between Cruz/Trump you would be highly offended by the outrageous attacks Cruz has launched on Trump after the KKK episode, Chicago and Brussels.
IF Trump is “boorish” what is Cruz equating Trump (and defacto his supporters) with the KKK? Equating Trump “violent” rhetoric with violent communists? Equating Trump’s position on NATO with the terrorist attack?
The fact is Cruz has been far more incendiary against Trump than Trump has against Cruz. But he has near 100% top cover from the media and GOPe. You’d note that if you really were open to Trump.
