Wendy Davis. Lol. Someone accidentally opened the “where are they now” file, and she fell out.

Early on in the primary process I was a supporter and would have voted for him. I don’t remember what state it was he lost but he brought in a Bush family member and got a bunch of money from those people.

That and the fact I learned about his wife’s Goldman Sachs ties was the last straw. Seriously? A Bush connected guy with a Wife that worked for Goldman Sachs....you really expect me to vote for that?

Cruz is persona non grata as far as I’m concerned. He can eat cake.

Oh, by the way Ted. STOP SENDING ME EMAILS!!!!

Not this Texan. He’s done as far as I’m concerned.

Nasty scumbag Cruz needs to get back with his whores and stop opening that whole in his face to speak.

Don’t forget: besides going back on his oath to support whoever the Repub nominee was, Cruz also accept as the condition to speak at the RNC that he would endorse or announce his support for Trump, which of course the low life did not. He’s 100% CFR/TPP/Globalist/Open Borders/Unlimited immigration/Wall Street banks, but with the twist being he pretends to be the opposite, apparently believing his acting skills are so great. I feel certain Texans aren’t going to be fooled again (besides the fact he’s foreigner with zero allegiance to the USA.)

He lied about supporting the republican nominee. I wouldn’t vote for him. Besides, he’s incredibly annoying.

True enough. He killed any chance he ever had to be President.

But he has a sterling voting record in the Senate and Trump will be counting on his votes. The Senate margin is likely to decline in this election cycle. Hurting Cruz in 2018 is risky. I wouldn't do it. Trump won't either.

Not sure what the point of the article is. Cruz isn’t up for election this time.

If Ted cared one iota about securing the border he would realize he was beaten fair and square and get behind the nominee. But he has another agenda I guess.

I’m sure he will be primaried and if he sqeaks by, at the rate Texas is turning blue he will be defeated by a democrat.

The Canadian lied about his US NBC status, his US citizenship. Having once been a Cruz supporter it is definite and stated LOUDLY "NO MORE!!" His vote for senator is the first AND last vote he'll ever receive from this voter. I'll not walk down that path again. Besides, his supporters are far too rude for this individual to care to join. Wendy Davis is rude as well...she and Cruz should hook up or something.

A person should only agree to speak at the convention who is in support of the nominee. That’s the whole idea of the convention.

Trump probably at least suspected that Ted would show his ass and let him go ahead and do it.

Rick Perry would be the sh!tbag that is worse than Cruz. He might be Cruz’s only hope.
