Cruz’s favorable rating nosedives after Trump non-endorsement
HotAir ^ | July 25, 2016 | Allahpundit

Ed mentioned this in passing in the last post but it deserves extra attention. How often do you see a guy’s favorable rating within his own party cut nearly in half in the span of two weeks?

Cruz’s move, however, appears to have backfired. While 60% of Republican voters had a positive impression of the former presidential candidate before the convention, just 33% have one now.

I think it is time to disregard Cruz.

Trump is running for president, and representing our party. That is a done deal.

In my opinion, it serves no constructive purpose for us to dwell on Cruz anymore.

Maybe we can talk about him next election. But now we have far more important matters to pay attention to.

(just my 2 cents)

I am sooooooo disappointed in Cruz.

He could have said, “I pledged to endorse the candidate, DT, so I am doing that today. Vote your conscience.” That would have been a class act.

But no, he had to be a jerk.

Half? They are way too generous.

Cruz seems to have been completely bought out, by globalists.

(just my opinion)

Is it impossible for him to run as an independent during this presidential election? Can he do it with one of the existing independent groups?

It appears that Cruz has become part of the political vocabulary, like getting Borked. I heard someone at the DNC say that Bernie wasn’t going to pull a Cruz on Hillary. Like it or not, getting Cruzed isn’t a positive image.

At 30% there won’t be a next election for Cruz.

This is a news story. As such, it is fair game.

Feel free to bypass these types of stories
as well as not commenting on them.

You are right on target. Cruz will face the voters of Texas in a couple of years. They will determine his fate.

Trump will hand Crooked Hillary a well deserved ass kicking.

I will comment on them.

Cruz is completely sold out. To heck with him.

I will not disregard him. He is for sale, to globalists.

“NO”.
