Not sure what you mean. But essentially ,as far as being hated by the establishment Republicans goes, both Cruz and Trump are/were in the same boat. The Republican Party Elite will do everything in their power to prevent either from getting the nomination. Jeb Bush was their fair headed boy, followed by Rubio. When neither of those panned out, the Republican Elites started shooting amongst us in the tree, waiting to see who got hit.
I assert that neither a NeverTrump or a NeverCruz position does anything constructive to defeat Hillary Clinton.
Your point is that the GOPe has taken a NeverTrump and a NeverCruz position.
Yes they are shooting at us. I think we are in agreement.
