Yes he did.....but list every state and every class of voter since. And he most likely would not have won Iowa had he not cheated. His whole campaign has been derailed since Iowa because people perceive him as a cheater. Texas is not a winner take all state so it doesn’t really matter who wins the state or not unless he wins 50% and get the additional delegates. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but he is pretty much out of the race
They perceive him as a cheater because Trump and his followers lie and say that Cruz cheated.
When Trump loses— he is graceless and childish.
Cruz will win Texas. Rubio will not win Florida.
That will be important.
For people who do not want Trump— Cruz is the best alternative.
He is in my opinion the only serious conservative left in this race this year.
If Trump and his supporters have 1/10 the firepower to attacking Clinton or Sanders, I would attach credibility to his candidacy. Trump despises conservatives. It is obvious.
Cruz is already trying to sell support he doesn’t really have. Even if he wins all the Texas delegates, who wants him on their side? Trump has Sessions and a host of admired supporters. Cruz has... well, Beck. How would you like to have Beck suddenly showing up and humping your leg. Beck has become the Lil Abner character with all the flies.
