Cruz is my first choice, and Trump has been my second choice, based on his stance on national sovereignty.
Trump is starting to wear on me, though. It seems like a simple, “congratulations Ted, see you in New Hampshire” might have been the way to go. You want to beat the other guy, but not alienate his supporters, since you’re going to need them down the road.
Cruz cheated and apologized for it. That gives Trump every right to go after Cruz to make sure it does not happen again. H e did congratulate Cruz. Then he found out about the cheating and it infuriated him as it should have. It seems some people only want just a little bit of political incorrectness. When you get lots of it then it starts to wear on them.
That is great news about Ted Cruz being your first choice!
And I totally agree with you re: Trump...and then some.
