Former Gov. Pete Wilson of California used a surprise appearance before the states Republican convention on Saturday to endorse Senator Ted Cruz, warning that the nomination of Donald J. Trump could lead to political ruin for the partys candidates this November.
My friends, we cannot afford a Republican nominee that brings us down-ticket decimation, said Mr. Wilson, pointing to Mr. Trumps weakness among women voters.
He also used his remarks to argue that Mr. Trump could not be trusted with Supreme Court appointments, an issue of great importance to the highly engaged conservative activists gathered in a hotel ballroom here near San Francisco.

Wilson can go do something to himself that’s not physiologically possible.
He speaks the truth about how Mister trump will deliver down-ticket decimation. (He will also hand Hillary the presidency.)
Pete who?
“All the GOPe libs are against Trump”
Not so. Boehner says he hopes it’s Trump. So does Peter King.
“Trump has all the right enemies.”
“Cruz has all the wrong friends.”
VERY well-stated, E. Pluribus Unum. BUMP-TO-THE-TRUTH
the rat should copulate with himself?
If you want down ticket decimation then pick Cruz!
Boo birds who spout their dismal predictions...well, frankly, they are just full of sh%#. And I think they are projecting what they want to believe. I am sick of it. Oh, and I pulled off,my Ted Cruz sticker a week ago!
LOLOLOL.
GOOD on you and God bless.
Sounds like Pete Wilson gets the George Will talking points faxed to him daily.
Two worthless GOPe losers that need to go the way of the dinosaurs.
The only down ticket decimation that will occur is if the RNC/GOP gets cute and screws Trump out of the nomination.
Those running for Congress, if they are smart, will get on board the Trump train along with representing Americans and quit kissing the posteriors of fraudulently documented foreigners.
“Down ticket” was also used by Geoge will. The new buzzword.
I’m a Californian. I love my home state with a passion.
Pete Wilson ran for president. I did not support him.
I thought he was a RINO and I didn’t think he would serve the nation well. If only Texans had treated Bush the same way.
Osier Wilson supports Tead. Big surprise.
Hey Pete, shad up!
Wilson?! — This only boosts Trump’s votes
Nothing like repeating your same talking points ad nauseum, judging by your posting history.
Meanwhile, Cruz offers nothing except the failed neocon globalist path we’ve been down since Reagan left office. No thanks. Keep your bs.
Ted’s a mess.
Another no guts, no glory old RINO squish GOPeete.
