True.
Had Trump not run, Cruz would have been an also-ran. Either Rubio or Bush would have won.
The GOP establishment turned to Cruz in a last, desperate attempt to prevent Trump from winning. Without Trump in the Race, they would have found a way to torpedo Cruz’s campaign.

No, Ted, no. A seat on SCOTUS will suit you better.

yeah, i forgot that the GOPe got behind Cruz in a desperate last-minute Hail Mary, figuring he he would appeal as a Trump-lite ...
however, Cruz is your basic standard slimeball politician who comes across as smarmy and whiny with a literally cringeworthy likeability aura, and if by some miracle Cruz had gotten the nomination, he would have been crushed by Hillary, but that would have been just fine with the GOPe RINOs petrified by Trump (as they well should have been) ...
OTOH, ANYBODY but Trump would have been crushed by Hillary because Trump was the only GOP candidate who was an implacable and undaunted heavy-weight fighter, and who was (and is) a total anti-establishment iconoclast ...

Of course Ted Cruz will never be president.
But the "Revenge of the Nerds," "So Uncool He's Cool" thing he's got going certainly does make politics fun for a while.

[Not to mention Cruz extremely annoying speaking style]
He needs a speech coach. I really like Ted despite his occasional autistic outbursts (e.g. the Glenn Beck migrant kids and soccer balls stunt and the Chicago thing that blamed attacks on Trump supporters on Trump). But the first time I heard his voice, I thought his message was being drowned out because of the fact that he sounds like the annoying antagonist/supporting character in a sitcom. The reality of politics, and just about anything else requiring face-to-face human interaction, is that appearances matter. And vocal timbre is a key part of appearances.

He’s been pretty supportive of President Trump.

Just plain false. They’re a couple of the best records in the Senate.

Absolutely solid voting record. Has stood alone against the liberals. Someone to consolidate and expand President Trump’s achievements.

Mitch McConnell on Trump’s nomination: “Thank God it isn’t Cruz.” So how is Cruz the Establishment candidate?

Hillary Clinton was just about the worst presidential candidate I’ve ever seen. (Well, on a major party, anyway.) She did as much to lose the election as Trump did to win it.
She would have been the same amoral idiot no matter who ran.

There is just something about him that I find very repellent. Could it be this?
https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/news/a43332/ted-cruz-donald-trump-rat-copulate/
I certainly never recovered my respect for him after his sore loser recourse to thoughts better left unshared.
