JANESVILLE, Wisconsin — Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), a former GOP presidential candidate who won this state over current GOP nominee Donald Trump back during the primaries, is not backing House Speaker Paul Ryan’s re-election during his primary against Republican businessman Paul Nehlen at this point.
Cruz’s team, over the course of several emails on Friday, told Breitbart News the Senator would not at this time back Ryan for re-election to the U.S. Congress. It’s worth noting, though, that according to Cruz’s team Ryan has not asked Cruz for his endorsement. Cruz also refused to endorse Donald Trump for president, despite a primetime speaking slot at the Republican National Convention.
“Sen. Cruz likes and respects Paul Ryan,” Cruz spokeswoman Catherine Frazier told Breitbart News. “He considers endorsements when asked, and in this case a request wasn’t made.”

What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.
Who?
Damn. Would have been the campaign kiss of death.
The problem for Trump is that if he is elected President he will have to work with the weasel to get legislation passed. I detest Ryan, Mitch and the lowlife McCain.
Ted is a fellow weasel, look at him pretending to be a conservative again.
How did he get where he was? By pretending to be against the GOP.
Is he against the GOP? Nope, not even a little bit.
New meaning for GOP:
Grey Old P*ssies
Crap, Cruz is the kiss of death
A stopped clock...
TRUMP 2016
( where did that stabbing pain in my back just come from...... )
Supporting McCain in a primary would be horrible for Trump’s agenda. He’s one of the biggest promoters of amnesty. Roger Stone said that presidential candidates don’t usually endorse during primaries, so why is Trump being asked to endorse people?
[ In Green Bay, Trump just endorsed Ryan, McCain, and Ayotte.
]
LAIR! TRUMP would never endorse those horrible RINOs!
I hope you get Zotted!
Stopped clock territory.
They are about as useful as those, but not quite.
See for yourself. https://youtu.be/mYOdzttrR88
