Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) praised Donald Trump's running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, in a new interview, but apparently he is still not ready to endorse the presumptive GOP presidential nominee...

“In this election I am where a great many voters are," he said, "which is that I am listening and watching and coming to a decision...”

Trump should drop Lyin’ Ted from his speaker slot at the convention if he still can’t endorse the Donald.

[Albion Wilde]

Hid widdle feewigs still hut.

If we are in the unfortunate situation of having Ted run in 2020, I will do what I can to work against him.

[Pinkbell]

He shouldn’t even be allowed to speak. He’s not a man of his word with the pledge. His delegates tried to free the delegates to get rid of Trump. He is there for his own political expediency for future POTUS runs. He ought to be at home.

[LuvFreeRepublic]

At home in Canada.

Keep it creepy, Ted!

Promises Promises, Ted—You broke your promise, and you are a pathetic drama queen!

Trump and/or the RNC should require any speaker who trashed Trump following his primary victory to submit a certified copy of their remarks for approval prior to presentation at the convention.

I cannot count how many debates I have had with Cruz supporters here who have assured me Ted will “endorse the nominee...” once Trump actually is the nominee versus the presumptive nominee...Yeah right.

I suspect he will support some of the proposed shenanigans by the #NeverTrump crowd and not even endorse at all...If I am wrong...please ping me and I will heat humble pie; I am so frustrated with this guy and his supporters!!!!

F that Lyin’ Loon.

I hope he never endorses Trump. The man is mentally ill and Texas needs to deal with him.

[Gator113]

THAT would not surprise me with this whack job.

[LegendHasIt]

I saw him more like the creepy pseudo preacher Harry Powell from Night of the Hunter.

[hinckley buzzard]

When there were a dozen candidates in the primaries, this infantile crapola might fly. No more. If nothing else, because SCOTUS. Turd blossom will fall into line, because he has to. But he just has to grasp one more ray of the limelight. Yecch.

Interviews with Politico? Please just go away, Cruzachabra.
I am finding you more nauseating than Bernie Sanders.

[poconopundit]

Cruz is a sad case.  They took his sled away from him as a boy in Calgary.  That's when his mind went off the deep end.  He can't let go of his glass snow globe-alist fantasy of worldwide dominion.

[Freedom56v2]

I guess signing that pledge meant nothing to him as is the case with Jeb.
Their pledge or word is as worthless as was their candidacies! ;)

[stratboy]

Hey Turd Cruz ....

I think that Amanda needs to take him away on a Caribbean getaway this week. Thanks Amanda in advance for getting him out of our hair.

[Gator113]

Agreed.

[spyone]

Cruz should be spending 100% of his time water boarding Raphael Sr. So we can put this JFK thing to rest.

Hardly anyone politically has declined as much in 2016 as TCruz. He could have been the VP nominee if he could have kept his tongue tame and just smiled a lot. Also his excellent debating skills just never really came through for him. I voted for him on March 1, on grounds of abortion and religious freedom. Was I had?
