Atlas "moderates" and Democrats preferring Cruz to Trump is one of the most hilarious things ever.

How is preferring a candidate who doesn't openly fan racial tension and divide this country "hilarious"?
And Cruz's anti-gay, Christian extremist, etc. rhetoric isn't divisive to the country?

While Cruz is barely better, he hasn't gone out there and said that most gays are child molesters. That would be the equivalent of what Trump said about Mexicans. Cruz hasn't called for all cross-dressers to be banned from the United States. That's what Trump is advocating regarding muslims. Cruz may come close, but never crosses the line into completely indecent behavior. Trump does it all the time, and the trash that support him gobble it up.
If this election took place 20 years ago, Cruz WOULD be saying those things.  He probably thinks them, but he can't say them in 2016 because saying so is political suicide outside extreme rural areas.

After Trump gets Hillaryslided in the general, Cruz will been seen quite differently.

Trump's sitting at 37 percent. There has never been a GOP nominee with fewer than 50 percent in the modern primary system.

The majority of the GOP has spoken and they have rejected Trump. The argument, "but he'd win a national primary" doesn't hold, because every state, and every republican had an opportunity to vote Trump, and the majority chose someone else.

If I'm looking at that total, I'd be saying that the will of the GOP was for a contested convention to hammer out a better nominee.

Trumpbots seem determined to destroy the party just to see their candidate through. Plenty of us are gonna stand by and watch the Trumptanic sink.
The only reason GOP nominees have been able to garner a majority of votes in the primaries is because all of the other candidates usually tend to drop out by mid-April.  If the opponents would have stayed until the bitter end, all of the past GOP nominees would be plurality candidates as well.
