Cruz isn’t going to get the nomination. If he did get it like this, he will be humilated in a major landslide loss.

Way to go Canadian Ted.

“A prominent aide to George W. Bush’s 2000 campaign could barely contain himself when we asked him to discuss Cruz, who worked in the Bush campaign’s policy shop.

This person described Cruz as hyper-arrogant and widely despised, and he emphasized—over and over—that the pervasive dislike of Cruz within the Bush ranks had nothing to do with ideology.

(Cruz, he noted, never objected to Bush’s call for compassionate conservatism, immigration reform, and national education standards, and no one on the campaign regarded him as an ideologue.)

The problem was simple: Cruz’s personality.

“Ted thought he was an expert on everything,” says this campaign veteran, who asked not to be named. “He was a smart and talented guy, but completely taken with himself and his own ideas. He would offer up opinions on everything, even matters outside his portfolio. He was a policy guy, but he would push his ideas on campaign strategy. He would send memos on everything to everyone. He would come to meetings where he wasn’t invited—and wasn’t wanted.”

In fact, this Bush alum recalls, “the quickest way for a meeting to end would be for Ted to come in. People would want out of that meeting. People wouldn’t go to a meeting if they knew he would be there. It was his inability to be part of the team. That’s exactly what he was: a big a$$hole.”

“I don’t know anyone who had a decent relationship with Cruz.” And when Bush became president, his top campaign aides agreed Cruz should not be offered a job in the White House.

“No one wanted to work with him,” this source remembers. “George W. Bush couldn’t stand the guy.”

This person adds, “It’s a real quandary for Bush campaign people: Trump versus Cruz, who to vote for? And it would be a big quandary even if it’s Cruz versus Hillary Clinton. That’s how much they cannot stand him.”

Maine , Iowa, Oklahoma should be recounted and investigated
there is very extreme diviation from polling just before vote, allegations of ballot box theft.

Cruz does OK when there is no voting, in caucuses and when he can lie that Doc Carson dropped out of the race. When Cruz stoops so low as the intimidation IRS look alike mail you know he will do anything to win.

4 of Cruz’s fellow candidates have called him a liar.

Cruz was a Bushy, now backed by Bush and Romney, and funded by hedge fund billionaires being prosecuted by IRS.

Lyin’ Trump will be humiliated when he gets 49%, or less, in NY State, even though it’s down to only three candidates.

Trump will pull over a lot of standard Democrat voters. Cruz will not. According to this article in The Atlantic, Trump appeals to Russian-American Jews:

“Today, she’s not a registered Republican, but like many of the readers of her newspaper, she said she’s starting to lean toward supporting Donald Trump for president. The other self-styled outsider in the race, though, holds no appeal for her.”
