[Mr Apple]

President Trump (on Jan 21st) needs to enact an Executive Order
to end all benefits to all muslims and illegal mexicans.

[Grampa Dave]

Now, we why know the left wing mediots and Clintoons’s brownshirts hate Mike Pence!

[Ted Grant]

It was only a disaster if your name is “Ted Cruz.”

[Lurkinanloomin]

So if Obama had been born in Kenya, it would have been OK?

[Kaslin]

I did not vote for Ted Cruz in the TN primary election on March 1, and I did not vote for Donald Trump either, but I defended Ted Cruz in the forum against the ignorant birthers who claim he was not eligible because he was born in Canada.

They totally ignored that his mother was born and raised in Delaware which made him a natural born US citizen. Also she never gave her American Citizenship up when Ted Cruz was born, as she was not eligible because she wasn't long in Canada for Canadian Citizenship

[Dante3]

I agree.

[Grampa Dave]

After Pence’s speech, we know why Donald selected Pence as his VP candidate.

A big hint was how the left wing brownshirt mediots attacked Pence as soon as Trump announced him.

[Fiddlstix]

YES! Good Post!

[Mariner]

Ted Cruz booed off the stage and a committed homo receives a standing ovation.

Who would have predicted that even six months ago?

[correctthought]

It took me a while, but when I saw what you did, I lol’ed.

Thank you, that was really funny.

[Mariner]

"I would only add that Newt did amazing damage control after Ted’s debacle, and removed the stink from the hall so Pence could shine."

The following night in a CNN interview with Dana Bash, Newt excoriated Cruz and stated flatly that his career is OVER.

[Sequoyah101]

I like to think that Ted is Through in Texas.

In other words, Ted is TiTs Up.

[Lurkinanloomin]

When did Cruz apply for citizenship? Foreign born children must apply in order to be recognized by the US government.

[Vision Thing]

Ted Cruz will pen anonymous screeds against Trump under the name, “Richard Cranium, Esq.”. Esq., as Cruz is a lawyer...

lol!

That would be so cruzlike.

instead of going with the more simplified "d|ck head, esq", complicated-mess Cruz would opt for "Richard Cranium" instead.

[StAnDeliver]

"Late last calendar year, I got very suspicious and tired of what I was seeing, especially by some of his ‘avid’ supporters here at FR."

The Tedlims organized (if you could call it that) offsite, promptly got beat here and in the field, and then went self-nukular...

[Scythian_Reborn]

Here’s what really happened.

The #NeverTrump folks (Romney, Jeb, other idiots) led Ted to believe he could still turn this convention around, or at the very least set Ted up to be the 2012 candidate. Now the #NeverTrump folks hate Ted, and they hate Trump. So this is a win, win for them. Ted was to egotistical to realize he had been had from the beginning. If he did derail Trump, which he didn’t. He would be hated by the largest republican crown ever to nominate their candidate, if the crowd turned on him, and they did, Ted would be ruined, and he is.

What the GOP doesn’t realize however, is no matter what happens from here on it, it’s not their party anymore. They aren’t even members, their time is over, and rightfully so.

[Canedawg]

Nice to see Pence getting his due.

[tinamina]

5000 to 3.
Heidi, Mike Lee and Cruz against the rest.
Remember that about Mike Lee. He was the major tool used by his friend Cruz to try to change the rules at the convention.
He shouted “We love you Ted” during the speech.

[Stand Watch Listen]

Ludlow totally ignores the commendable clean up that Newt Gingrich performed on the Cruz ‘speech’. Newt got the convention back on an even keel prior to Pence’s speech.

[Iscool]

You ignorant birther. For your information Ted Cruz's mother was born and raised in Delaware, which makes Ted Cruz a natural born citizen, no matter where he was born.

Now, now, now...If Cruz's mother gave up her American citizenship then Ted is a Natural born Canadian...But then what about his dad??? His dad was still a Cuban citizen wasn't he??? That would make Ted a natural born Cuban...Or a Cubanadian...Or a Canubian...
