>Im wondering whether Trump purposely plotted a campaign strategy where his one-on-one would be with Cruz and not RubioI dont know how he would have accomplished thatmaybe by forfeiting certain states that he would win-
Cruz is the only candidate dumb enough to keep it going. Marco dropped out when he realized the damage it was doing to him.
Well, that’s not fair, Cruz isn’t dumb, he’s politically tone deaf. He doesn’t understand how he will be perceived if he keeps going.
Cruz has what is known as a low social IQ.
To him, other people are merely tools he can use in his building up himself.
The idea that he’s a loon who thinks he’s ordained by God to become President seems to fit the facts of his political career. Sure, there can be other explanations but the narcissistic one fits the observed behaviors of El Supremo Cruzo.
