Cruz and Trump back then, now Trump and DeSantis. Like a loop, history repeating itself in many respects. Sometimes here on FR with the same people. Funny, the Cruz defenders are now the Trump defenders, the Trump folks from 2016 are now DeSantis.
Probably not. The Trump people are still Trump. A few breakways are DeSantis.
Keep in mind some of the same people backing Cruz in 2016 are running RDS campaign. Which is obvious.
Only a few. Your broad brush statement isn't true. In 2016 I chose Trump early on after hoping for Cruz initially. Cruz lost me when he started pretending the violence at Trump rallies were Trump's fault when it was pretty clear they were leftists doing that stuff. Got a lot of flack from Cruz supporters.
I've never switched to RDS, and have no intention of doing so.
It's pretty clear that most of the RDS supporters here aren't ex-Trump folks, rather they're primarily from the nevertrump camp. Yep, there are a few who changed. All with different reasons, but your broad brushed statement is just flat out wrong.
