Cruz and Trump had a meeting last week. I don’t doubt that you are exactly right. Trump is getting the true issues on the table in a loud clear voice, and later Cruz will come in and clean up. Remember 2004, when Bush and Kerry, those two old Skull & Bones cronys, embargoed any discussion of illegal aliens and migration in their debates? It just never came up. I remember.
The thing is, I believe Cruz’s only chance is to for now ride Trump’s coattails. Trump will fade, there’s just too much out there, but for now, let him have his time.
