The Lesser of Two Evils

On March 21st , 2016 Erica Grieder wrote an article about how republicans should start to stop looking into a way to stop Trump and should just vote for Ted Cruz called "Seriously, Republicans. It’s Time to Drink the Cruz Kool-Aid." Erica Grieder is a writer and senior Editor at Texas Monthly. She seems to be heavily biased against Trump and is really pushing everyone that votes Republican to vote for Ted Cruz, because Cruz seems to be the only person that has a chance at all to beat Trump.I feel that I agree with Erica because she seems to have looked at the grim situation that the Republican party is facing and is giving a possible solution to their problem. However Erica is heavily biased against Trump and she knows that because she lays down what Trump has done for her to hate him.

I agree with the author that if the Republicans don’t want Trump as their front runner and believe that his nomination will lead to the downfall to the Republican party’s chance to win the Presidency, that they must vote for Ted Cruz because he seems to be the only candidate to have a chance at this point. Erica has valid points on how people should stop trying to ignore their Trump problem and that picking a lesser of two evils at this points is just what they need to do so that they can have a chance to win the presidency. I think that Republicans should be looking towards what could happen if they think that having Trump is the worse choice and that they should try to get a nominee that isn’t as bad as Trump.
