That is unacceptable: we need EVERYBODY on our side to unite to have any hope of defeating THEM.
Most likely, Trump will get to 1237 before the convention: at this point, it would be a blessing. I supported Cruz and voted for him in the PA primary, but IN NO WAY will I withhold my vote from Trump if he becomes the nominee. I just hope more of get on board the #NeverHillary train now, and vow to support either one of our guys.
Cruz made some deals with the GOPe (Lindsey Graham et al) and many of us felt he was being played for a fool. Also, it was a betrayal...
That said, I agree with you - it’s time to turn away from this mess and join hands in a “#NEVER HILLARY”...
It’s time for Cruz to suspend his campaign because he cannot win the nomination legitimately. That simple, it’s time to focus on the real enemy, Hillary.
For me, it was the debate after Iowa when Carson held Cruz’ feet to the fire over the rumor he was dropping out. Cruz said he didn’t know the truth until 9:30 PM, but Carson said his team tweeted out a denial at 6:30 PM. So either Cruz’ staff was incompetent or Cruz is a liar. After that, I didn’t trust him.
I got on the Trump train in October but Cruz was a close second because I wasn’t sure Trump would survive to the end. After the Carson debacle, Cruz lost all of my respect...and my vote.
If memory serves, the bad blood between CRuz and Trump began when a hidden video was exposed showing CRuz badmouthing Trump at a private fundraiser.
I also think that it is Trumps research that exposed that and that also exposed Rafael Cruzs history with Lee Harvey Oswald.
I am not opposed to Cruz. I do not hate Cruz.
I support him for senator, supreme court, vp, you name it.
But, I switched to Trump.
I want the best for Cruz, and I consider him to be as conservative as anyone else out there.
We should NOT be injuring ANY of our conservatives in the US Senate in particular. We might lose the Senate. We need every one of them we can get.
I guess after last night I have my answer to the question in the title of this thread that was posted back in early May. What a disappointment.
