Donald Trump isn’t the only person tearing a rift in the Republican party. While much attention has been focused on the war between Trump’s supporters and the #NeverTrump crowd, less attention has been paid to Ted Cruz’s similar inability to unite the party.
Given the Senator’s consistently conservative record, few likely predicted that the Texas Senator would be fending off attacks from the party’s far right — yet that’s precisely what’s happening. The latest example of this lack of camaraderie between Cruz and the conservative base comes from an interview with right-wing media host Sean Hannity.
When Cruz dodged Hannity’s question about the confusing primary process, Hannity launched into an angry rant against the second-place GOP contender that likely surprised many, given the media personality’s consistently conservative leanings.
Donald Trump may not be building any bridges with the party establishment, but Cruz is having trouble courting even his base.

A vote for Ted Cruz be like Here’s your sign and your trophy
There once was a lawyer named TED, He tried to put (5) five in his bed, His frequent ERECTION, DERAILED HIS ELECTION, His POTUS campaign is now DEAD!
Jesus..how can you be so stupid…???
Sandra Young ..but can still run just like Cruz..from another Country.
Hannity is purposely inflammatory and combative and I do not care for him. Cruz has done nothing dishonest or unethical. He has simply worked the system just like Trump could be doing if he knew how. So quit crying.
I give Hannity a lot of kudos on this one.
It hasn’t been settled in any court. They just threw out the cases. It is still being disputed in other courts around the country.
Cruz is just a slippery snake. He can’t tell the truth. He is the epitome of a professional politician!
Hah, the mainstream hates Trump!
trump 2016 will never vote cruz
