Do you want cheese with that whine? I just came onto the board and I see multiple posts of the same crap on any thread where Teddy is mentioned, and I doubt anybody cares about Teddy, much less about your whine. He had a chance to be somebody, but chose to be nobody. He didn't even have the grace and common decency to congratulate Trump. He just whined. BUT, thank God, he finally quit. Teddy is gone. Maybe more should follow! Trump will beat Hillary without a doubt and go on to Make America Great Again.
LOL! Trying to become akin to the low-info folks who jump to conclusions then jump the shark?
I started for Cruz with Trump my second choice and a couple months ago decided that Trump was the only logical one to back and stopped donating to Cruz and started donating to Trump.
I wasn't whining as a disaffected Cruz person but telling those who won't let go of the sour grapes over Cruz's defeat to stop with the crap already - it is done and we need to unite to stop Hillary.
You see, we seem to agree about Trump, except for the fact that you still want to get in folks faces over the rift, and I'm telling folks it's time to get over it. Having so many of us on such a hair trigger ain't helpful - capiche?

Iv'e been a big proponent of Cruz dropping out for some time now and have been 100% behind Trump for the same period of time.
You must be really low info and comprehension-challenged.
That said, at least you seem to be behind the right candidate.

Trump ran a steeplechase, , Cruz couldn’t jump the last fence.

Doing important work, Trebb. A little harsh on WVK, maybe, but Cruz supporters care deeply about the USA.
Cruz is an amazing conservative leader. No doubt about it.
We only won this primary because Trump connects better with your average patriot. Truth is that half of all patriots [perhaps most] are ‘low-info’. It’s confusing the heck out of rock-ribbed conservatives.

I used to admire many movie stars and now regret that I learned about their dark secrets and/or politics. I wish I could just enjoy the movies free of all that junk.
The same with Cruz supporters. We need to give them an extended vacaction from all of the Cruz criticism. Keep your powder dry, and when the time is right one day in the future your research will come in handy.
I understand your frustration, but Cruz supporters have dug in their heels.
We don’t need to rub their faces in his flaws any more. It’s time to give them a break from negativity.

This statement is central to the Trump campaign and disproves the main point of this article.The national government is supposed to be the government of the States. It was never intended to be involved in the day-to-day affairs of individual citizens.
What's wrong with Washington is systemic. Trump may be able to mitigate the symptoms for awhile but when he leaves office it will still be just as broken.

I disagree with Trump about one thing: that Cruz has an “amazing future.” That slimy, phony, oleaginous, smarmy, bible-thumping me-first a-hole has no future as far as I’m concerned, unless it’s spending the rest of his life wallowing in pig sh!t. He’s the most unlikable jackass ever to appear in American politics.

Bradley felt the same way about General Patton during the Sicily operations. And maybe Patton did need to be more ‘hands on’ and instill his vision to his officers.
But people change.
Further ... you are kicking a dead horse in front of people who loved and adored it.
The horse is dead. Leave it in peace.

Wow, are you dense? No, trebb, I am not Dense. I probably have access to more info than you appear to display. You fail to present a cogent argument, yet think you have won a prize. That is just like Teddy Bare, not Trump! I have been behind the right candidate for many months. I was originally pulled toward Cruz and even donated. After that, I got tired of the daily appeals for cash, and after more investigation and exposure, got to see how much the guy really is just another slimy lawyer type who lies to get himself elected Senator, then fails to show up for the job. His hope was always pinned on his aspirations, not aspirations for America. He still feels entitled, but he has nothing to offer. I am glad you came aboard the Trump Train. I jumped on long ago, and never looked back. Now, we can all look forward and Teddy Bare will disappear in the rear-view mirror of history as just another wannabe. Good night. I am on the other side of the world... but am home in America with Trump FRamily FRiends daily! We are united in our hope that Trump will win and Make America Great Again. Maybe you have seen one of my tags before...We followed the same path and when I described that path, you responded as if I was having sour grapes because Cruz is finally out.
Obvious misunderstanding and I apologize for my part in it.
Go Trump!
Trash Hillary!

Eh, nothing wrong with a day-after post-mortem. But:
people change
Not people like Cruz.

Most likely Heidi had enough of his losing campaign and demanded he withdraw. She became a joke to America with having to stand by her man.

we have not been a nation of laws for quite some time
we have morphed into a nation of lawyers. America suffers from the tyranny of lawyers
the law is any thing you can convince a judge

“Blah, blah, blah... Teddy lost. Capiche?”
Really? Trump won and you’re still trying to alienate Cruz supporters? It’s about time that those of us who voted for Trump (as I did a week ago today) acted like adults.
This is not a difficult concept: Rudeness directed at Cruz or at his voters does not make it more likely for the 30% of republican voters who preferred Cruz to vote Trump in November. That conduct makes it more likely for Hillary to win. Please give it some thought and start acting like a gracious winner - even if it’s an act.
Capiche?
