The uniparty does not care if the R wing or the D wing of the uniparty wins. They are fine with the globalist Hillary and they are fine with the globalist Cruz. Only Trump scares the globalist uniparty and they will do anything to prevent Trump from becoming President of the USA. Cruz is their point man and Cruz will go scorched earth if that is what he is told to do.
Cruz has not orchestrating any of this in a vacuum. Some of these players are the remains of Romneybots & Bushbots from the last 15 years. Ted would not be able to pursue all of his escapades from within his own campaign. And he can get financial help from many interested parties.
We have new globalist players who have entered the foray that have great motivation to sway our control this election and that $$ already is in his bank.
We have the Norquist muslim objectors and the Mexican objectors to Trump due to his declaration to restore US sovereignty. Their support would favor Cruz to the last minute or dime if he can beat Trump. Then it would flip to Hellery.
