It seems that he is brilliant at energizing people and raising money, but has no idea how to run a campaign. The stars were aligned and he kind of blew it. Cruz's campaign manager said a couple of days ago this is either the worst campaign I've ever run against or the most brilliant. He had twice as much money and was running against a guy who is not even liked in his own party. He didn't know how to spend all of that money, and he didn't know how to message to right leaning moderates. But Alyssa is good with it because now he can be Prez.
No idea how to run a campaign?
He traveled more, shook more hands, visited every county in the state, etc. He was out there meeting with constituents.
And he outraised Cruz without any PAC money.
Texas is red...that's just the way it is. That this guy came close and made the GOP sweat is interesting in and of itself.
That Cruz sold his soul to have Trump campaign FOR him after how the primaries went in 2016 says more about Cruz than the election does.

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
