The problem with making a “statement” with your vote is that the winner gets to be President for 4 years.
Still trying to figure out why Trump is viewed as the savior for stealing all of Cruz’ positions on Obamacare, Gang of 8, etc. when Cruz had them first.

Because Cruz was too much of a coward to make them a campaign issue. He just timidly accepted what the RNC and the media commanded of him.
And then along came Trump, and BOOM, they’re all out in the open. Trump took all the flack, all the attacks, all the heat, and Cruz was still hiding behind him, going ‘Yeah, me too!’ without actually having any skin in the game.
Cruz had the field to himself for a long time; he had the chance to make a bold stand and do what Trump did. He didn’t even try.
