And here’s the problem. Under other circumstances, I would have voted for Cruz — I donated to his campaign several times. Even though I hold a very low opinion of him now, I would have voted for him to avoid Hillary. But, I simply cannot this time around: I do not believe he’s eligible.

Maybe he builds a wall, right-sides trade, defeats ISIS but that only serves to create a 'safe space' for America to continue with the status quo, devoid of constitutional and moral principle. All of these issues, when you look at the objectively, are external and incidental. A form of situational politics.
