Or was Cruz's self-delusional attempt to maintain "integrity" calculated for Donald Trump to once more upstage him? Trump said he had read the speech beforehand and didn't care, and while that might be a blatant lie, it wouldn't surprise me as using his hated enemy to further cement his reputation and turn the party against Cruz. Gingrich, as ever, tried to adapt the situation, but even that old snake can't control Trump's insane political cunning. I wonder if Trump can sap Cruz's support base through this move, and further cement himself as the conservative candidate.Cal of Chelcicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04274276191242967318noreply@blogger.com
