Cruz is thrashing out. He knows his 15 minutes of fame are just
about up. Good riddance to him

Lyn’ Ted, liar and loser. He should just shut up and go home. Get some treatment with Beck and Levin. Seriously, what is this guys problem? And his supporters, just as deranged. Go home, good riddance to you all!

Is this the Sour Grapes Party or what??

This is just a clear indication of why Cruz lost; he's not a good politician, he focuses too hard on the negative and blames others when his plans fall through.

But he most definitely honor his pledge and support Trump 100%.

Trump got $500 million in free media

Not "free media," Ted. It's called "earned media" because Trump developed a strategic for controlling the media narrative and in the process earned this amount of media attention.

And on top of that, a lot of the media was negative for Trump, but he turned that to his advantage.

Many in the media offered Ted free time on air if he would only call in...and Ted refused.

He is pathetic.

I still don’t get how anyone can think that deligate rigging can be considered winning. Once people got wise to what Cruz was upto he tanked like a rock. This is a man who can’t take responsibility for his own failures.

Ted, Ted, Ted...

Man, you need to accept that folks didn’t buy what you were selling.

That’s call taking personal responsibility. The choices you made cost you the election. Man up.

Wow, this guy has really taken the mask off, so glad, so so glad he is not going to be the nominee. What an ass he turned out to be.

Silly me, and here I thought is was those 15 million primary votes that played a decisive role in Trump’s nomination.

What does Cruz think his comments will accomplish (at this point)?

Immaturity, that’s all I see from here.

Some FReepers said ‘we dodged a bullet’, and I am inclined to believe them more and more.

Lyin’ Ted has always been a Bushie Establishmentarian as his votes were always with the enemy.

Lyin’ Ted’s “conservative” words were always empty rhetoric.

He is like a tennis guy who feels he got a bad call. And loses every point after that because he can’t get over the call. These guys are called losers. Suck it up Ted before you become a bigger joke then you are.

‘“Four weeks before we dropped out, we were winning the race…” Cruz said’

The ‘we,’ must signify Cruz and Roe? Or perhaps the anointed king royal we?

Four weeks before they dropped out, Cruz had how many more delegates than Trump? If the ‘we,’ refers to Cruz and Kasich combined, they still had fewer delegates than Trump, right?

He really should consider returning to his home country.

If Trump wasn’t in the race, the GOPe would have taken out Cruz early on. Remember, Yeb! Was supposed to be the nominee against hiLIARy. As it played out, trump actually was a shield for Cruz at least the first half of the primary.

Ted may have missed the parts where Trump called the media liars and dared them to turn the cameras on the crowds. He’s right about the free publicity, though. Like moths to a flame, they couldn’t help themselves. But 90% favorable? Uh...no.

It’s very sad that Cruz is repeating a false media narrative.
