And in the meantime, the actual Cruz is telling people, quietly, “Look at what Donald Trump is talking about. Look at how it is resonating. Think about why these affairs matter.”
Cruz is wise. He is in it for the hand of God, not for himself. Some would-be boosters, not quite so wise.
I agree—Cruz is handling the Trump question and the entire race perfectly.
I’m fine at this point with either Cruz as Trump’s VP, or as the conservative candidate with a chance to become the nominee if Trump falters.
But I’m increasingly doubting that Trump will falter. He’s a quick study at this.
