Provo, Utah (CNN) -- Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on Saturday picked up the support of Utah's lieutenant governor three days before Republicans head to the state's caucuses.

Spencer Cox, who had previously endorsed Sen. Marco Rubio's candidacy, endorsed Cruz at a rally here Saturday afternoon that was hosted by a pro-Cruz super PAC.

"Ted has unwaveringly fought for conservative principles time after time, and as president, he will do the same. I am asking all of my fellow Utah Republicans to join me, Senator Mike Lee and Mitt Romney in voting for Ted Cruz on Tuesday," Cox said....

I don’t think Linda has ever formally endorsed him. He accepted the last nominee’s endorsement, I believe.

I was a Cruz fan since 2012 and followed his speeches when he announced. I so hoped he could somehow manage to get the nomination.

I was intrigued by Trump’s June 16th speech, but still favored Cruz.

But it became more and more apparent as the debate season began that Trump had the better ideas and the necessary attitude (think Patton) to lead.

As the campaign continued, Cruz showed himself to be a hustler, a fraud. Trump, warts and all, is the man for this time.

You are following a cult leader. Of course, those in cults don’t know they’re in cults.

Projection is a form of defense in which unwanted feelings are displaced onto another person (and apparently their candidate).

The projection is all yours.

You will hear my “voice” through the computer screen. You’re getting very sleepy. Watch the coin as it swings back and forth on the chain. See the face of Trump on the coin. Now! Run from the false prophet Cruz!

More deprogramming will be required after Cruz loses.

So if Trump grants an expedited legalization amnesty for the "good ones" (a.k.a. the non criminals) will you finally agree to take off your Trump nozzle?

I don’t talk to cult members. I keep forgetting that. Sometimes when the Mormons knock on my door I forget to look through the window and see who it is. Same way with the Seventh Day Adventists handing out Watchtower magazines. I simple do not talk to cult members.

Everyone here endorsed Rubio. Until he dropped out.

Mike Lee and Cruz are “Club for Growth” money buddies.

Yes, the only true conservative is Casino Kingpin Donald “Planned Parenthood” Trump, a Hillary donor.
