CLEVELAND, Ohio Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) gave a stirring address to the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night, but failed to endorse Donald Trump, telling Americans to vote your conscience.

Very true. And he had the gall to disparaged New York values...
Quote:
“Hahaha! Amanda Carpenter on CNN steadfastly standing by her man Cruz and slamming Trump. Stand by your man Amanda!”
Anyone, ANYONE, who condones, supports, or stands with Ted Cruz after this disgraceful performance tonight should be shunned, ridiculed, ostracized, and excommunicated from this board and from the Republican Party.
Stand with Trump or stand with Hillary. And if you stand with Hillary you are a TRAITOR to the country and to the Constitution! You are with us or you are against us!
Quote:
“The other damage Ted did tonight was to give CNN and others an excuse to ignore Pences great introductory speech. Way to go Its all about me Cruz. (Former Ted supporter here).”
And that is criminal. Mike Pence is obviously a good Christian conservative unlike that phony Ted Cruz.
what does that mean?
Isn’t it too late
"I was really disappointed in him not endorsing Trump. It makes me wonder what he is trying to do or gain. He lost his bid and is now making enemies. It is hard to understand."
It's not hard to understand if you have paid attention to him since his Senate race in 2012. Lots of little things that added up to his and his wife's narcissistic ambition. You eventually recognize both of them as really slick grifters.
At the Texas Republican Party State Convention, Cruz was in a runoff race for the Senate and had a campaign booth. He glad-handed the delegates, took pictures, made campaign promises and answered questions. One of the delegates asked him if he did win the Senate seat, would he then run for President like Obama did. He answered "No, I'm not eligible. I was born in Canada." He lied to me and all those at his booth that day. Then after he was elected to the Senate, he denied having ever said that. So much for supporting 'original intent' of the Constitution.
Later, when it was obvious that he was going to make a run at the Presidency, I tried to warn everyone here, but got attacked, and shunned by a lot of FReepers that were previously friendly. Perhaps some of them will be a little less hostile, now.
I will be searching for a real conservative to support to primary him in 2018.
What is this poop about conscience when Hillary is the other candidate?
There’s something wrong with Cruz. Did you see the sick smile when he got booed? He’s got a Hannibal Lecter kind of demeanor, weird.
OMG: I did not realize that he was involved with Ken.
Ken Cuccinelli, the former Virginia attorney general who advised Cruzs campaign, said he didnt think Cruzs remarks were problematic. I thought Ted, you know, spoke his own mind there, and I cant quibble with that, he said. Thats what hes done for years, it makes him unique among political figures.

NIce except Cruz not unique, he is just like every pol in DC...he did not keep his word. He did not endorse...He went to Trump’s party and dissed him. Shame on Cruz!

Cruz is virtue signalling. Telling his supporters its ok to vote 3rd party. He did same with withdrawal day press conference tantrum that green lighted never Trump.
"Can anyone explain what Cruz thought to bring about his appearance tonight."
Cruz is gambling that enough of his supporters will stay home in Nov. or vote for Hillary, that she will win and not Trump. Don't be surprised if he actively encourages his supporters/followers to do exactly that. Then he can run against her in 2020.
Meeting was how to jump from bridge.

His supporters but mainly his donors are pissed. Sheledon, Jack Walsh etc.
He is done, he can’t run or continue his campaign with money. His Jeff Roe will run away now.
The answer lies in Cruz’s dad has prophesy that Teddy is destined to be POTUS. Cruz has taken that to heart as gospel, and can not accept that he was defeaTED.
