That’s absurd. Cruz is 45 years old, and though Trumpsters want to deny it, a much shrewder politician than Trump could ever be. If not for the wall-to-wall coverage of Trump’s every crazy utterance, and decision by the media to ignore Cruz, the outcome would be much different.

It's Cruz's politics and general lack of character that doomed him.

The country doesn't want a 'politician' anymore.

Just another G.D. weasel lawyer, twisting the truth.

Cruz’ strategy got him as far as #2 out of 16. His fatal error IMO was getting down in the mud with Trump. No one, and I mean no one, is as ruthless a combatant as Trump. It’s his time, and he’s taking advantage of it.

“decision by the media to ignore Cruz”

Cruz was on all the shows. He brilliantly started every sentence with “Donald Trump...”

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Media ignore Cruz? They tried hopelessly and endlessly to try and prop up this terribly unattractive, holier-than-thou, stilted candidate up - the media was frantically trying to help him, but he was just helpless and hopeless.

The only candidate who was more unattractive in the race was Hillary. Once Cruz got the focus on him as the only anti-Trump alternative, he collapsed as the voters saw him and rejected him when they did...he was only “popular” when no one knew anything about him and hadn’t seen him. Once people saw him and heard him it was over for him.

You mean....Crews would not be a Canuk?

Was Obama older than Cruz when Obama ran for office? Harvard Law School really messes with the minds of ineligible candidates.

Cruz is not shrewd at all, a bunch of us that have voted republican since the 1980s would not elect him as dogcatcher.

He is a fraud.

a much shrewder politician than Trump could ever be.

********************

Shrewder has yet to be determined in the case of Cruz. He is smart but the ability to focus
on a proper way to secure the peoples support has been his downfall, imo. Cruz appears to be
on an agenda to try and determine the GOP platform as it’s developed at the convention, etc.
I’m not sure that’s in his best interest at this time but we’ll see. I do think Cruz will
ultimately endorse Trump but only after the convention.
