Tjat was the end for Cruz...at that point Trump was well over half way to the nomination and Ted was hoping for Indiana
Pence gave his endorsement to Cruz (probably ordered to) then heavily praised Trump. Then on the day of the Indiana Primary Trump outsmarted Cruz again and jokingly insinuated that Cruz’s father was connected to LHO. He said that on that day because he knew Cruz will have an epic meltdown; which he did.
