Where T-Rump has populist bully bluster and thunder, Cruz has true dominionist/crush non-believers with the holy-hand-of god/I-am-chosen-and-sent-by-god-to-destroy-american-non-believers (literally), a mythology that he is the one chosen by god to lead the government that has been told to him since childhood and that he believes.

Scarier by an order of magnitude than a dumbass like T-Rump.
