GOP Elites Back Ted Cruz

The full headline of the article is GOP elites line up behind Ted Cruz.

However, it is the sub head that is the most interesting.

Establishment is increasingly prepared to lose with Cruz than hand the party to Trump.

So their slogan is Lose With Cruz.

What kind of political party wants to lose elections? A very corrupt Party. There is more evidence of corruption in the body of the article.

Republican elders, desperate to stop Donald Trump, are increasingly convinced they would rather forfeit the White House than hand their party to the divisive Manhattan billionaire.

That’s why the party’s establishment is suddenly rallying behind Ted Cruz, a man they’ve long despised and who has little chance, in the view of many GOP veterans, of defeating Hillary Clinton on Election Day.

“People think we’re not going to win in November anymore. All the candidates that had a shot at winning don’t appear to have a shot at winning the nomination. Everyone is resigned to that,” said a high-ranking GOP operative about the thinking among Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio alums as well as Republican party officials and big-money donors.

What these mopes don’t get is that Trump’s support is coming from all the Republicans who don’t have inside connections. Those Republicans see the elites winning and can count their own losses. The Obama health care “tax” for one.

The Republican elites have lost touch with their voters.

Bernie Sanders is a reflection of the same among Democrats. Obama could end pot Prohibition by reclassifying it. It is actually within his lawful power. And he has done nothing. Politicians lie to the people. Eventually people notice.

TEA Party Ted has sold out to the elites. He is now a man without honor. People notice these things.

A lot of Bernie voters would vote for Trump because they recognize that despite policy differences Trump will shake up the power structure.

God help the elites if they don’t get a clue soon. We had the TEA Party. They didn’t get a clue. We are having Trump. Still no clue. What comes next? Pitchforks and guillotines. Do they really want to go there?

    If they are backing Cruz, it is in an very halfhearted way.

    I think they are seriously torn between Trump – who they can make deals with, Cruz – who is truly conservative therefore less controllable, and Hillary (or Biden if she’s locked up) – who is also a malleable deal-maker.
