If they are successful at getting rid of Trump, it will be easy for them to shut down Cruz. They have already done that in the Senate. Cruz is a light weight and his PAC will NOT support him in any effective way if Trump is gone. No way Cruz can bring in the money or votes on his own.
Cruz surprised a lot of folks with his "grass roots" donations before Trump became so noticeable. He will continue to get my money and the odds are he will pick up Trump supporters if Trump falls by the wayside.
Hard to call him a lightweight if one has been paying attention.
Who do you support? Do you support FR with donations and also donate to your candidate? If not, you are hardly in position to be looked to for your "expertise" because you aren't actually invested in your beliefs.
