Ted Cruz keeps winning the strangest endorsements. I’m not talking about positive endorsements, such as Thomas Sowell’s. I’m talking about negative endorsements, so to speak.

Take Jimmy Carter: Talking to the British House of Lords, he said he would take Trump over Cruz. “The reason is that Trump has proven already that he’s completely malleable. I don’t think he has any fixed opinions that he would really go to the White House and fight for. On the other hand, Ted Cruz is not malleable. He has far-right-wing policies, in my opinion, that would be pursued aggressively if and when he might become president.”

“Ted Cruz is not malleable.” Thank you, Jimmy C. I agree.

And at Power Line, Steven Hayward points out that Cruz has won another endorsement, of a kind: from Robert Reich, late of the Clinton cabinet. In a smarmy little video, he says that Cruz is a “true believer,” “disciplined,” etc. — unlike Trump.

So, congrats, Ted. The plaudits keep coming in …
