Plenty of people have voted for Cruz. As for his creds, you sound envious . Cruz would have had the moon if he had chosen to take the liberal route. And I suppose that Trump really is just like “old Biob” down at the country store. He picked up on the “working man” jive when he was a young guy working at construction sites. But I doubt he has ever slept over anywhere in a working class neighborhood.
Yes, he managed to fool quite a few, didn’t he? Then we all learned what a sleazy phony he actually was.
