Yes...and the MSM and the DNC are pushing for it...sadly, so is the GOPe.

Both men are very smart, and they both love this country.

Trump is brash, irreverent, and has significantly shifted his positions. Yet I personally believe, at his age, with his kids and grandkids, that he has established positions now that we need and most of us agree with if he will actually do them.

I have come to the conclusion over the last months that he will. He wants to win, and he is articulating many things that are keeping America from winning that I believe he will tackle and do all he can to correct.

Cruz, despite the pronouncements by many, has been a fighter for the constitution and conservative values from the start...and he often went it alone in the Senate when most people would not have had the commitment or gumption to do so.

They are both also clearly proud men who are convinced of their own importance to the here and now.

Cruz’s ground game, despite what many say, has been brilliant in terms of setting himself of in the event of a brokered convention...and it has all been by the rules.

Trump’s counter strategy, to call fowl (where there is no fowl) and thereby gain media attention and blunt the impact of Cruz strategy is also brilliant from a political perspective. And I believe that is exactly what it is.

I do not blame either of them for those things.

But the personal attacks and the dragging down of one another have only provided fodder to the DNC, the MSM, and the GOPe.

The GOPe is now trying to co-opt Cruz to stop Trump. I do not believe Cruz has gone over to them...but I am afraid he will try and use them (while not trusting them) to get to the nomination in an ugly convention battle.

I believe that battle will cause us to lose in November.

That type of divisiveness has to end in order to preserve the HUIGE anti-establishment coalition the two men together represent.

If they can bring that together and go forward., they will absolutely crush the livening daylight out of the GOPe and put together a much broader coalition which...if united...I believe wins in November too.

As it stands...Trump is the winner by a significant margin, and it falls to Ted to be the one to stop the divisiveness, unite with Trump, find the way to put the rancor behind them, and pull together for the sake of this nation.

Ted’s positions, Ted’s efforts both in the State of Texas and in the US Senate are something I admire...but the reality is what it is.

Trumps actual published plans and policies are not that far different that Ted’s. Ted can unite this thing and pull the two sides together if he will lay down the war hatchet and make peace with trump for the good of the nation...if he only will.

I am praying...and writing...and working to make that the outcome in any way I can.

IMHO, it is the only clear path to victory I see in November.
