A spokeswoman said Cruz will not be at the convention Thursday night, meaning he is likely to miss the speech in which his former rival, Donald Trump

Seems like bad form to me.

So Ted gets to speak, but he doesn’t stick around for the nomination speech on Thursday night. He must have a “pressing commitment” that he can’t avoid. Even EMK stuck around for Carter’s speech in 1980 but wasn’t too helpful.

Honeymooners TV show.

Golf Scene.

Gleason needs to learn hoe to play golf.
The golf book explains, approach ball, plant feet, address the ball.

Norton explains the instruction “address the ball”
Walks up, plants feet, salutes the balls and says

“hello ball!!!”

A shame that former presidents can’t be bothered to address the Texas delegation at the convention.

Otherwise, meh, couldn’t care less if there was one more senator at the convention on Thursday night when the acceptance speech is made.

What may be even more interesting why Sarah Palin is not going to be speaking at all. Donald says she was asked.
Some very famous public speakers won’t appear unless all is on their terms. Maybe she wanted a certain day and a certain hour, while they were offering her something with low potential audiences.

Knowing how Donald is used to managing people, and how blunt he can be, it would not surprise me if
Donald said “Sarah, we love you, but at your last event, you sounded terrible! Melania wasn’t too thrilled about your choice of wardrobe either, if you wanna know the truth. I know some fantastic voice coaches I could refer you too, they are completely fantastic, you won’t believe what they’re capable of doing with your own vocal qualities! Should I have them give you a call? Oh yeah, and the completion of this voice training is as they say, ‘a prerequisite condition’ before you are given a speaking role. “A prerequisite condition’!”.

The only thing I want to hear from ETC is I release all my delegates and encourage them to support Donald J Trump

Cruz should just stay home and pout, and keep his whining to himself. As for Ryan, I hope he’s defeated in his primary next month, and will be gone for good.

I’m not sure why either one of them get to speak at the convention. They are both nothing more than weasels in my opinion.

Ted Cruz seems more sophomorish by the day.

Can’t say that Trump isn’t bending over backwards to make friends with Cruz.

What I know is that the #NeverTrump delegates attempting (and reports are still might attempt funny business next week) to stage a coup and replace Trump are, at least the prominent ones, Cruz delegates. Cruz had a chance to tell these people to knock it off, honor the rules, and vote for the will of the people. Cruz did no such thing.

I know Trump is trying to unite the party and is hoping he can obtain some support from Cruz people if he allows Ted a speaking slot at the convention. However, I don’t think I would of if I were him. Ted is causing division. First, he won’t endorse him. Second, is the delegate situation. Third, he is now leaving before Trump speaks? Ted is there because he wants to make his pitch for 2020 if Trump doesn’t win. It’s self serving.

Maybe Carly could speak too. After all she’s Ted’s VP choice. LOL
