Rush, don't doubt me on this...

If Cruz doesn't make the move to unify behind the popular vote frontrunner, and the split in the party causes Hillary Clinton to win in November, it will be Cruz who will be blamed as the spoiler, not Trump.

Cruz will become the most-hated person in government, displacing John Roberts, and that's a high bar to beat. He could be the overnight hero if he joins with Trump to beat back the McConnell wing of the party.

Cruz must know that it is a hierarchy of needs: nothing else matters if we don't win the White House. If Cruz spoils the overarching goal, he's finished as a force in the party.

I believe it. Ted's let his ambition get the best of him. His route to higher office was to continue positive relations with Trump, and then become Trump's VP. Looks like he's blown it and maybe for good as far as his political career goes.

I'd rather see the GOP, the Republican party, finished as a force.

BTTT

CRUZ fails to see that VOTERS are not merely unimpressed by his delegate shenanigans, VOTERS are outraged!
