Yup. Cruz wants to drag this out so Trump will keep burying him. Once he finally concedes or is forced out, Trump will back off. Until then Teddy and his wacko charlatan dad deserve the beatings.
By failing to back off earlier (and act “Presidential”, as he claimed he would months ago,) Trump has tarnished his own brand.
In the history of dirty primary campaigns, no major candidate has called another one a liar dozens and hundreds of times. Maybe that appeals to alpha-males, alpha-male-wannabes and alpha-male-worshippers, but my guess is that it has sounded pretty thuggish to the vast swatch of moderates who pick the winner in the electoral college.
As good a challenge as Sanders put up neither he or Hill plumbed the depths of personal nastiness our side has. November’s going to be a mess.
