And if we lose the Senate, we lose the Supreme Court, and neither Trump nor any other GOP candidate will be able to get anything of substance done anyway.
I think Cruz is far superior presidential material than Trump, but:
1. I think Trump can win the general against either BS or Hitlary.
2. I don’t think conservatives will stay home. I for one don’t fully trust him, but I will vote for him MUCH more readily than I have voted for any other repub nominee since Reagan.
