      .@mattklewis: (1) If Cruz had bashed Trump early, how would that have helped? (2) Cruz's anti-establishment campaign was also conservative.

      @benshapiro I think Trump *might've* been stopped early if some conservatives didn't give him cover (for personal gain) as he built steam.

      @mattklewis And I would make a distinction between media thoughtleader conservatives who went along and other candidates on that score.

      @benshapiro Let's assume buddying up to Trump had 0 impact--except for helping Cruz. Isn't it still concerning from a character standpoint?

          @mattklewis @benshapiro Cruz early support helped build narrative that only the PC media and GOP estab types thought Trump was wacko.

          @mattklewis @benshapiro The fact is that Cruz is the only 1 who mounted a serious resistance to Trump. It is unseemly to attack him now.

          @mattklewis @benshapiro If Cruz had called Trump a lying imbecile in February, is not the obvious risk that it hurts Cruz and helps Trump?

          @mattklewis @benshapiro This is just because Rubio lovers don't want to admit that they handed nomination to Trump.
