Donald Trump met with Sen. Ted Cruz on Capitol Hill Thursday -- the first meeting between the two former bitter campaign rivals since Cruz suspended his presidential campaign.

You are correct and only THE most delusional, cultists are still clammering for Cruz and singing his praises. This is NOT just here on this site, but in the REAL WORLD as well!

The usage of the semi-colon for attribution is an odd choice. Care to explain the rationale behind it? Now, I think it should be “BUT NOW I AM (comma) JERK.” I could be wrong though.

“After meeting with Trump at the NRSC headquarters in Washington, @tedcruz slips away without talking to the press. “

Just in case no one down thread has enlightened you, Ted Cruz under our Constitution is NOT eligible to hold the office of president.

Trump holds grudges and he doesn't need Teddy in the Senate, where he is loathed by almost all.

The Cruzombies have a tenuous grasp of reality and facts; sadly.

Cruz didn’t bring Carly? Did they break up?

Or is Jeff Roe wearing a skirt now?

You are incorrect about EVERYTHING, so it’s not surprising that simple English punctuation isn’t your forte.

Cruz wants the title: Co-President

He is not a team player.

I am seldom wrong about anything and yes, my knowledge IS prodigious; though you meant that sarcastically.

Read my posts and you shall learn a great deal, expanding your current abject dearth of understanding and knowledge. ;^)
