The GOPe hates the conservative wing worse than they hate DJT. They hitched thier wagon on Cruz to see if they could at least arm twist Trump. It hasn’t worked.
I predicted (so far I have been corect) that after NY, the GOPe would use Cruz to inoculate themselves from the conservative wing of the party. They don’t want to fight the dems on abortion and gay marriage. Cruz and his supporters will be painted as right wing extremists. They will then be marginalized.
The longer Cruz stays in, the worse it will be for the conservative cause.
My second prediction is DJT will nominate Rand Paul as his running mate.
Not a bad pick
