Yet you’d expect - demand - that former Trump supporters vote for Cruz if he became nominee.
You know what? Many, many would vote for Cruz in that circumstance. Something more and more Cruz supporters would not do in the reverse. You’re all saying it very openly now.
What do you expect? Trump supporters tell them all the time that they’re irrelevant, he doesn’t need them, conservatism is old news, and every one of them they lose isn’t important, they’ve been replaced by two dem crossovers, doncha know? Hear it enough and some will say “okay, fine, good luck out Democratting the Democrats.”
Did Cruz ever say Democrats run the economy better?
Did Cruz ever contribute to Democrats?
Did Cruz ever say Scalia was too rough on affirmative action?
Did Cruz ever say he would be really flexible and change once he was the president?
Did Cruz ever say all Federal lands must remain Federal because we can’t trust the states or the people?
Asking conservatives to vote for a conservative is no big deal. Asking conservatives to vote for an elitist crony capitalist con man who is a recent Democrat supporter is a big deal.
