Quite true. And in fairness, I must admit to being tempted to do the same with regard to Trump, then I read his words, and find out the smear was unfounded. SOMETIMES. But on the other hand, Trump's words revealing him as a moderate or A-Okay with more and bigger government "solutions," are confirmed with one's ability to read, and there are people here who go into extreme denial when it comes to anything negative about Trump. They refuse to read what they don't want to read.
Cruz isn't perfect -- I've read enough about him to know this. Trump isn't perfect either -- my ability to read causes me to conclude that Trump is much more moderate and inclined to the left than Cruz.
