The “Never Trump” campaign met its end this week when Donald Trump accepted the GOP nomination for president at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. But one of the movement’s most prominent leaders, delegate Kendal Unruh of Colorado, said she’d do it all again.

Ted Cruz has teamed up with GOP establishment hack John Kasich, to usurp the will of We The People. The two of them are in cahoots trying to cajole our (rigged) system in Ted’s favor to force a contested convention. Ted can’t mathematically win with the voters, so he’s bribing delegates to try and win on a second ballot at a brokered convention. From the backlash he’s receiving on Facebook, it appears that many of Ted’s supporters are not pleased with his latest scam. “I supported you because I believed you were an outsider, boy was I wrong!” scorched one...

Former Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said Saturday that "we need to make some changes" to the nation's political system — possibly even abolishing the Electoral College — because it's a process "that's disregarding the will of the people." "One of the reasons that this is the year of the outsiders because people were so tired of the status quo and the rules that were arbitrary, created to advantage one group or another group," Carson, the retired pediatric neurosurgeon, told Uma Pemmaraju on Fox News. "Whatever happened to 'We are the people, the American people?' "The power has been served,"...

Sen. Ted Cruz refused to say Tuesday whether he would still back Donald Trump if the GOP presidential front-runner wins their party’s nomination, backing away from a firm pledge he made earlier in the campaign. Mr. Cruz, whose coziness with Mr. Trump last year had pundits saying they were in the middle of a bromance, said that faded once the billionaire businessman began to turn nasty, and particularly in recent days when Mr. Trump has said he would go after Mr. Cruz’s wife. “I’m not an easy person to tick off, but when you go after my wife, when you...

Earlier today sham charges were filed against Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski for brushing up against anti-Trump reporter Michelle Fields at his victory rally in Jupiter, Florida. The surveillance video, like video released earlier this month, shows that Lewandowski barely brushed by Fields. The video also shows that Fields did not flinch and her facial expression never changed Fields later claimed she was assaulted. It was all a hoax. The case has not even made it to court but this afternoon Lyin’ Ted Cruz blamed Donald Trump for the “battery” charges. Cruz blamed it on Trump’s “abusive culture.” This was...

is slamming Republican presidential rival Donald Trump's call to rethink U.S. involvement in NATO in the wake of Tuesday's terrorist attacks in Brussels. "It is striking that the day after Donald Trump called for America weakening NATO, withdrawing from NATO, we see Brussels, where NATO is headquartered, the subject of a radical Islamic terrorist attack," Cruz told reporters in Washington on Tuesday. "Donald Trump is wrong that America should withdraw from the world and abandon our allies," Cruz added. He claimed Trump's proposals to draw back from Europe would hand both Russian leader Vladimir Putin and the Islamic State in...

Whole Title: Cruz says to heckler, "One difference between here and a Donald Trump rally is I'm not asking anyone to punch you in the face."
