I think Trump’s notion of negotiating with someone is to use a combination of pressure and suasion to get them to make a deal with you that is favorable to you.
Full disclosure: I strongly favor Cruz over Trump (whose caesarist tendencies are almost as worrying to me as those of Obama and Clinton — almost because he holds right-wing and center-right positions on some issues — but nonethless worrying).

I don’t understand the tendency of some Trump folks to attempt to diminish Cruz for the purpose of elevating Trump.
It’s not necessary-— they’re working conjointly.
