Completely staged. The Republican party is insane, but they aren't stupid. They understand the concepts of crafting a narrative to the highest level and they are doing just that. In their twisted minds they will believe that the reaction to Cruz's non-endorsement displayed unity behind Trump. The entrance of Trump at the exact moment Cruz was at his worst, allowing the glare-down, was perfect production. This will show that Trump can stare down his opponents and that he is a strong leader. The only thing missing was Vince McMahon and a few meatheads rushing on stage to engage in a donnybrook. This was WWE production at its finest, You have to remember that the people they are trying to sway have the intelligence and attention span of a 10 year old. You need these types of moments to make traction with them. Frank Luntz and his crew of pollsters will need new knobs on their twistometers this morning. The production values there sent reactions through the roof!
