Ted Cruz: You Don’t Win Friends with Salad

You don’t win friends with salad.

You also don’t win them by telling them that they’re stupid.

“Donald does well with voters who have relatively low information, who are not that engaged and who are angry and they see him as an angry voice,” Cruz told CBN. “Where we are beating him is when voters’ get more engaged and they get more informed. When they inform themselves, they realize his record. He’s what they’re angry at. He is the corruption, and if you want someone to stand up to Washington, the only one who has been doing so in this race is me.”

You can probably say a lot of things about Trump’s supporters, but “not that engaged” is not a phrase that has a lot of accuracy.

Next time, try a little more Dale Carnegie, Ted.
