Because the last thing Trump needs is another republican publicly criticizing him. No doubt Cruz is correct but providing more MSM ammo is a more then a bit disloyal and perhaps self serving.

On the other hand, this might be the most effective method (maybe the ONLY method) of giving Donald Trump some very important and much-needed advice.

Smh. Siding publicly with a person’s rabid, frothing enemies is not the way to influence that person. It’s the antithesis of the way to influence that person.

Well it didn’t work last time, when Cruz blamed Trump for the Chicago violence. Trump didn’t call off the goons causing the violence. He didn’t listen to Cruz. Of course the fact that Trump had nothing to do with the violence never occurred to Cruz.

In this case, Trump is responsible for no more than 5% of the crap we coming out. And maybe the media amplifies this 5%, but I suspect that Obama was no better...the difference of course is that the media covered for Obama, such as when he admitted to be a Muslim. Trying to get that 5% down to 0% is next to impossible. What our side SHOULD be doing is pinning this crap where it belongs, on the media and the Left...not publicly trying to ‘improve’ Trump, because that’s not happening.

I suppose this got him the required amount of TV face time he was looking for didn’t it.
