“How’d that work out for ya? Now he is not only a failed candidate but more marginalized than ever in the Senate.”
Failed and marginalized? Without Cruz you have no Trump. What you have is a RINO running and losing to Hilarity. Cruz identified Washington as a corrupt, incompetent singular body which didn’t care about Americans. That’s why he was hated by the establishment.
Trump jumped on that bandwagon as he saw an opening that played to his style of leadership. Btw, no one else but Trumo could have done this. For him, this was the perfect storm. For Cruz, one senator out of 54 means squat both for a Cruz and the party. Without 60 seats every senator is marginalized in their own way.
Want Cruz to have influence? Elect more conservative candidates.

Nonsense. Former Bush admin official Ted Cruz self serving jumped aboard the TEA Party band wagon when running for Senate against an establishment candidate. There is not an anti-Establishment bone in Cruz’s bought and paid for career politician body.
Honestly, I don’t care how many “conservatives” you elect to the Senate. That doesn’t make Cruz a winner or a leader. To wit:
Cruz could not even get Mike Lee or Jeff Sessions to attend “climate change” hearings featuring Mark Steyn.
Leadership requires more than just sharing overall ideas. It requires getting people to act WITH you on those ideas.
Cruz can’t do that. At all.
