GW Bush said he “does not like” Ted Cruz. Cruz is the only candidate Bush has had such negative words for. The GOPe despises Cruz. And you sincerely believe the GOPe adores Cruz, above all other candidates? Really?
I think Ted Cruz is not particularly liked by our globalist ruling class. His is the "bad boy" in "the club", but he is in the club. Trump on the other hand terrifies the GOPe he is a monster to them,so much so that they will back the bad boy to stop the monster.
Trump is the only candidate not owned by the billionaire GOPe donors. The only candidate free to speak his mind and tell people what he really thinks. So I like Trump, he is the only candidate I trust. Now if Cruz is the nominee and wins fair and square I'll support him in the general as long as he does not go wobbly on immigration.
