He's a politican in this role, running for president. i can;t fault his logic. i view it like the deserted stretch of highway, post 50 MPH. A person can put on a drag race, occupy both lanes, and go as fast as the cars allow, without fear of being caught. Cruz is in that position with NBC. The chances of Congress or the courts enforcing that provision of the constitution are close to zero. It's stupid to follow the law, when you know the law is not enforced.

You are describing a character flaw. Cruz's biggest problem is his claim to fame is following the original intent of the Constitution.. Yet, he daily demands an exemption for himself. Liberal lawyers are not going to ignore that hypocrisy. I expect more than a few liberal lawyers and judges to find religion and decide to play 'original intent' upon Cruz.

As the Seinfeld episode goes, "It's not a lie if you believe it." As viewed by the public, a person with a character flaw is often quite skilled at misleading. Cruz mission is to get the office, and if he can convince enough people he is eligible, then, as a matter of practice (but not fact) he is eligible.

Just because you and I see it as a character flaw, doesn't make the public see him that way, and public perception is reality.

I'm not sure the liberals will rain on his parade. There is a bigger goal at stake here, and that is erosion of nationalist sentiment. We are on our way to becoming a place on the earth that harbors all and varied ethnic and cultural enclaves, pooling resources for the common good. This "NWO creep" is going on all over the planet.
