Reports: Cruz considering withdrawing Trump endorsement
The Hill ^ | October 8, 2016 | Evelyn Rupert

Ted Cruz is considering rescinding his reluctant endorsement of Donald Trump, according to multiple reports.

A Ted Cruz aide confirmed the talk to ABC News, and a source gave similar intel to CNN.

BuzzFeed News reported that the Cruz camp said there's "nothing to share right now."

Trump earned a hard-fought endorsement from Cruz about two weeks ago. The Texas senator said the Supreme Court and other policy issues superseded his own personal disagreements with Trump.

In the wake of leaked audio of Trump's lewd comments about women, Cruz tweeted Friday that the remarks were "disturbing and inappropriate."

And Cruz will get 2 million less votes in his Texas senate race in 2018.

Go for it Cruz.

Perry for Senate!

He may be “less conservative” but he is not Ted Cruz.

“If you are considering, just do it!”

Then he no longer gets attention. The principled conservative is a shameless attention whore.

I am betting that a Republican or two were the source of the tape in the first place.

Any here who still does not believe in conspiracy theories? Because this whole GOP response reeks of it.

Cruz and his misfit brigade of eager cultists remind me of the insane world of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker.

Agreed, many are blowing their cover and they’re scared.

That is true. I haven’t heard him say he endorsed Trump. Instead, he said he would vote for Trump because, although Trump is a horrible person, he’s less horrible than Clinton.

Definitely a conspiracy. Today in Nevada Sandavol, Heck and Hardy came out against Trump. I haven’t heard anything from Heller yet but he was on tv a few weeks ago already saying he wouldn’t support Trump.

I didn’t give a shit when he didn’t endorse him at the convention....

I didn’t give a shit when he decided to endorse him....

...so why would I give a shit if he withdraws his endorsement?

My Voice is going to be hoarse calling and leaving voicemails for all these scumbags!

Folks, they need to hear from us...

I recommend everyone call call, Tweet or email RNC and tell them you are voting straight Democrat down ticket!

Also emailing Trump—making donation.

And folks wondered why I couldn’t just let bygones be bygones.

He hasn’t done it yet, and he may not.

This is one eventuality I hadn’t considered. He could have given his support, so the damage would be that much more pleasurable to him, when he withdrew it.

Stay tuned...
