Krauthammer: Cruz’s Attack on Trump ‘Doesn’t Play’ Because It Was ‘Unmodulated’ and It Was Desperate

‘Whatever the substance of his charges, launching them like that, particularly, at the 11th hour when you look to be on the edge of political extinction, looks like desperation’

KRAUTHAMMER: "It doesn’t play. And it doesn’t play for two reasons. One is it’s completely unmodulated. Whatever the substance of his charges, launching them like that, particularly, at the 11th hour when you look to be on the edge of political extinction, looks like desperation, second, where was he for the first three, four, six, seven months of this campaign? He was the one candidate of the 16 that began to dwindle. Who spoke most favorably of Donald Trump. Called him my friend. After the episode I think it was the episode where trump hesitated to disavow David duke. Cruz refused to criticize him. As with a lot of other — when I attacked John McCain. When you do that after all that time praising him, it looks to be insincere, and desperate."
