Trump has successfully defended himself.
Cruz will have to, as well. We shall see if Cruz is as good at defending
himself, as Trump has been.
The attacks on Trump were just verbal and easily deflected by Trump’s bluster. The attacks on Cruz are going to be from outside orgs spending millions and millions of dollars that only can be defended by more millions and millions of dollars.
The attacks on Trump were of no consequence but after they take care of Cruz they will come for Trump in the same way. Lots and lots of money with constant barrages of media. Trump has seen nothing yet and the attacks on him will be more ferocious than the ones on Cruz. And in the end we get Rubio for the candidate.
