Love your tagline.

Having trouble squaring it with your post.

Apparently Cruz is the one true foreign born Conservative who is uncorrupted by his dependence on donors and the GOP machine to support him.

If Cruz is the real deal, why doesn’t the GOP spend a fraction of the time and effort attacking him as they do Trump?

uh, maybe because Cruz is actually a Republican and not playing one in name only like Trump? But hey, I completely understand why you support a documented LIBERAL NY DEMOCRAT as Trump has clearly stated that he is and has a history of showing he is one.

If Ted Cruz was the "real deal," he would have correctly blamed protesters for violence rather than a fellow candidate. If Ted Cruz was the "real deal," he would not have been allowed to be part of the RNC at the same time he was supposedly "rogue;" if Ted Cruz was the "real deal," Mitch McConnell would have made an example of him that would have ended his political career; if Ted Cruz was the "real deal," he would have told the Bush dynasty "thanks, but no thanks;" if Ted Cruz was the "real deal," he would not have been "blindsided" (which he, of course, wasn't) into helping pass TPA (and thus TPP). The GOP-e knows who Ted is well enough to co-opt him and place their ground machine at his disposal- they don't do that for someone they don't control.

Now that the GOP machine owns him, Ted has fixated on Trump just as they have, as opposed to earlier in the race when he would at least go through the motions of talking policy. And he sure as hell hasn't been saying anything about the Corrupt Bastards Club ever since he allowed them to pay his membership dues.
