So it’s written that before the speech he was viewed as too “confrontational”.
Now where do we suppose this idea of too “confrontational” came from?
And then after the speech, people have to “rethink” because the speech was so good.
This illustrates perfectly the Reaganesque qualities of Ted Cruz. Reagan faced the same dilemma. He had to face audiences who had been ‘conditioned’ by the media to think he was a nutjob who only wanted to nuke the Soviets. Then Reagan would speak and everyone listening would change their entire view of him.
Great comment and observation.
As I have said before good litigators are strategic thinkers by nature and by trade...
