Today, Indiana has to make a choice between ZERO accomplishment career politician Cruz -and- a builder and doer who actually created 100,000 middle income and higher income jobs all by himself for real people, Donald Trump.
Maybe not for Ted lying Cruz but for his Donors and Supporters
Your analysis is interesting. You criticize Cruz because he was unsuccessful fighting the establishment - particularly Boehner and O’Connell. The reason that they hate him so much is because he had the balls to even fight them. If you want to know how Trump has succeeded, it is because he has tapped into that same anger, and yet has ‘masterfully’ painted Cruz as establishment. Also, he has managed to turn Cruz’s strengths into weaknesses. Honesty and integrity into ‘Lyin Ted’. His net of was the same with the othercandidates. Jeb Bush perceived his strength as calmness and steadiness. Trump called him ‘low energy Jeb’. Rubio thought himself as a fighter, and Trump called him ‘little Marco’ and weak. Trump views himself as a counterpuncher (his description). Anyone that has boxed knows that strategy - wait until the stronger fighter uses his punch and then strike back with a stronger punch. In other words, if he jabs, if he punches, you left cross or uppercut. His strategy was the perfect one for appealing to an angry population. The problem is, that people no longer want to reason, they just want change and to be heard. That is how Obama was elected. Populists come and go. THe only thing that has kept us going for these two and one half centuries is our unique Constitution. You have to give credit to Trump, however, he has turned out to be the best politician of all.
