I see. But they have to be differences that *can* be put aside- in the first place. And in the second, the parties must act in good faith. When one party misleads- or attempts to mislead, everything breaks down. You can’t work with a dishonest broker.
I don’t know what the intent was, if any. If it wasn’t “intent”, that’s not good, either. In context (Senator Cruz’ competencies), it would be even worse if these were “accidents” or whatever. Moments of weakness, maybe. Maybe he just needs a few more years to get his bearings & he will get where he needs to be. (OR maybe he is where he needs to be as he is. That is up to him.)
We cannot- after 8 years of 0bama + a year of the democrats controlling both houses of Congress before that, afford any *unnecessary* screw ups. These things are foreseeable, in the Senator’s (& the other candidates’) case. Why take that risk? I don’t know about anybody else, but I am tired of “living on the edge”.
For whatever flaws Donald Trump may have, he is an overachiever, a perfectionist, & I see his ego- or his own personal standards for himself, as a failsafe. Can he fail? Sure. But he’s going to go to the wall to succeed because he has a personal investment to do so. You can’t ask for more than that. I can relate to how he is, so he is very credible to me.
That is why I prefer him as the candidate for president.

That looks more like a requirement than a preference. By your account there is no other candidate you do not have differences with that you cannot put aside.
