Cruz is going to loose the Primary in 2018
Greater men than him made much smaller mistakes which ended their political future.

I am voting my conscience, TRUMP.
Cruz supporter don’t get to define what “vote your conscience” means for anyone but themselves.

It was a good article.
She stated the case that no one should sit this one out, but should vote for Trump.

Cruz will never run again for POTUS. He cooked his own goose.

It was really thrilling to see Cruz defeat entrenched RINO David Dewhurst for the Senate in 2012. I saw Cruz as the new voice of conservatism in the GOP. I now see him as just another narcissist with delusions of grandeur.
Ted Cruz is now dead to me.

We took it as a slap because the never trumpets were hash tagging the phrase all over the place.
Cruz knew that. He hates Trump. He will do anything to see him lose

There won’t be elections or a republic left if Trump doesn’t win
Ted has proven himself to be a petulant child

Simple. Voting your conscience for conservatives means voting for Mr. Trump. No real conservative with a conscience could possibly vote for The Beast.
Next?

I don’t even know if that is his father in the picture with Lee Harvey Oswald.
But he is defintely not a natural born citizen.

Well, of course. But that’s not really what the article is about. Not Ted, per se.

I think Cruz said what he said, because he uses lawyer double talk.
He intends to signal his supporters to NOT vote for Trump, and to be ready for his run, next time around.
In terms of morality, Cruz subjects the nation to the evil of Hillary, for the sake of his future. If Trump wins, Cruz loses his near time chance.
He is holding himself, to be more important, than the nation’s well being.
He is the personification of many of the long-winded, pious #nevertrumpers.

“Telling you to vote for Trump without explicitly endorsing him ... That’s the way I see it.”
What I heard was, “Write in my name.”
To: Yashcheritsiy
To: Perseverando
An unqualified and sincere endorsement of Trump was the only option. Ted failed.
That and he's not NBC.

If Cruz had been the nominee, he would likely be in court most of the time trying to stay on ballots after Democrats succeeded in getting him disqualified in many states.

I have asked my conscience what I should do for the last 50 years, it keeps telling me the same thing; “KILL ALL THE LAWYERS, KILL ALL THE POLITICIANS”, should I do it?
Admittedly it would solve a lot of problems.

When TEDDY runs and gets 2 votes; his, and some hooker he paid to vote instead of pork.
