Breaking news: Sen. Ted Cruz is withdrawing from the Republican presidential primary, effectively ceding the GOP nomination to businessman and reality-TV star Donald Trump.
Cruz’s campaign made that announcement in Indianapolis, after a crushing loss to Trump in the Indiana primary. Cruz had already been mathematically eliminated in the GOP race, but had remained in the hope that Trump could be denied a majority of delegates, and Cruz could win the nomination in a contested convention.

But I haven't read anywhere that he endorsed Trump. I hope he does that also very soon, to unite the Republicans to focus on winning the White House.
He hates Trump so much he’ll never endorse Trump. He’s the worst sore loser I’ve ever seen.
Now, his voters should join the Trump movement. Even though I’m not sure Trump needs them. There’s obviously not that many of them. ha!
Wouldn’t want to be the Head of GOP State Chair of Colorado

A choice between ‘crooked’ Hillary and “The Donald”... Hey America- What’s in your bug-out bag?
Begala just compared Trump getting the nomination the way he did like Rome sacking Carthage (CNN)
Thank you Senator Cruz? Now it’s time to get on the Never Hillary campaign.
I wouldn’t be talking about heads with ISIS lurking about.
Everyone will be forced by horrible Hillary, because the Democrat primary is fixed.
Not so fast! CNN called Indiana for Sanders!
Congratulations to Donald Trump the next President of the United States!
Thanks for ending this Ted.. Best of luck in the future.
Rush, Levin, Beck will have pissed their pants. Everyone that quit Rush, turn that ass in tomorrow. This will be a heart attack.
Trump for President.
The GOPe skullduggery shifts into high gear now.
Heidi was fighting back tears.
One or both of them is going to need counseling. I mean this in all sincerity. This is a narcissist and a codependent relationship. They will not handle this loss well.
KASICH IS SURGING!
“The GOPe skullduggery shifts into high gear now.”
I am afraid you are right.
Never Trump Groups vow to keep fighting.
Sad to see you go, Mr Cruz, but you ran a terrible campaign, and still took more states than any non-winning GOP candidate in history... with one exception: Reagan in 1976... and he was the nominee and elected in 1980, after Ford lost to Carter the Disaster. Trump is going to lose to Hillary the Disaster, so hopefully 2020 will be your time... if there’s anything left of the US by then.
