Cruz is beyond ‘Has Been’, he is a Has Been, Has Been.

For many admirers of Cruz, the very thought of endorsing Trump remains repugnant.

What is repugnant is Cruz failing to honor the loyalty oath he signed as a candidate.

Cruz needs Trump much more than Trump needs Cruz.If Cruz can’t get some help from Trump to rehab to his devastated career,then he’s gone.

As Trump soars the nonsense from the discredited and rejected neocons gets thicker and deeper. Don’t know if there is a sewer system anywhere with enough capacity to clean it up.

These elitist shills are going stark raving mad this weekend. All because Hillary is collapsing.

If the Republican Party heeds anything emanating from the Austin American Statesman, another of the ubiquitous Leftist rags published in urban Texas, it is too stupid to hold the presidency.

Cruz is for his own ambition not for the party. He loves the constitution and should be a Supreme Judge.

Pure Clickbait from Austin. I fully expect Ted to support the nominee, that's what he said he'd do.

Nothing for the libs to write about now until Cleveland, so they're going to stir up Trump supporters every chance they get.

Yeah, they insisted that Trump sign the thing; yet, they are the ones who refuse to adhere to the principles of the document.

Cruz won't even win re election for his Senate seat

He lost where he was supposed to win

He lost everywhere that was't a Causes or fraud in Utah and Wisconsin

Surrounding himself with people who will drop him so fast it's unnbeivable

“Cruz should maintain his sterling conservative brand and stay far away from the Trump train and its inevitable wreckage,” said CNN contributor Amanda Carpenter, Cruz’s former communications director in the Senate. “Even if Trump wins the White House, he’ll have done it in a low-down, dirty way that no one with any integrity should be proud to endorse.”

Priceless - the Clinton News Network claims that Cruz benefits from helping Hillary win. he's already next to dead for many of us and his "principled reticence" would be the final nail in the coffin he's been checking out.

If he doesn't offer at least some support, he will be lucky to land a job on the Podunk Circuit Court.....

Sorry I disagree. Cruz has no cards left to play and may in fact have trouble being re-elected to his senate seat in Texas.

Trump really does not need his endorsement and in this day and age endorsements no longer have the meaning and influence they once did.

Cruz probably needs to do some serious fence mending and hope Rick Perry does not decide to run for his seat in 2018.

Cruz burned his bridges with Trump with all his lying and delegate theft and corruption. It is my guess that he will try to get some idiots to fund his write in on the Kristol/Beck “Katter day saint-— oops- republicrat ticket. This is absurd. It is absolutely to0 late to get on even half the ballots == some state require 200,000 signatures— Real signatures . The cost just to get on the ballots is estimated at $74 million. The Trump followers would hound these loser at every public utterance. and I think this loser would attract goofy bernie idiots when hillary is indicted. If it’s Cruz, he is absolute toast politically. Kristol is a sick man IMO Needs help like his buddy Beck.

Trump doesn’t need Cruz.

And Cruz is certainly not the party. The party voted for who they wanted. Trump is the party.

“... Randy Evans, a party-wise man from Georgia, with a nod to the reality TV star’s promise to ‘put some show biz’ into the July convention in Cleveland...”

###########################

The GOPe faithful ALWAYS put this “reality TV star” BS out in front...They never acknowledge that Trump has been an extremely successful businessman for 40 years.....

############################

“...Cruz’s theme will be to say, ‘You’re the nominee, but I’m the party...”

Would someone please tell Cruz that the people, the voters, the ones who actually count, don’t think so......
