The GOPe is just trying to look close to him so they can stick a knife in his back.
They know damn well they can work with Cruz because their fat cat funding champs have Mrs. Cruz in their pocket already. Ted's chicken dung excuse for making TPP easy to pass is proof the GOPe can rely on him when push comes to shove.
[In his 1987 book Art of the Deal, Donald Trump put it bluntly: “I play to people’s fantasies. ... I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion.”]

.....”These weren’t centrist or conservative Democrats, either. The recipients of Trump’s largesse, as The Washington Post noted in 2011, made a veritable “Republican enemies list.” Besides Reid and Schumer, it included John Kerry, Charles Rangel, Edward M. Kennedy, and Hillary Clinton....”
“Ted’s chicken dung excuse for making TPP easy to pass is proof the GOPe can rely on him when push comes to shove.”
I am puzzled that Cruz supporters completely ignore Cruz’s willingness to bend over to the cartel that he so often blasts. The man voted for the Corker bill, and goes about the country condemning the bill he voted for. He must be some kind of mental case. Trump has, in the past, made comments that I disagree with, but his comments had no impact on government policies, and he says he has changed on those issues, such as abortion.
But Cruz has very lately VOTED in support of the cartel. He has until recently advocated legalization for all illegals. And now he claims to be on the right of that issue to Trump.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
