Its called self immolation. July 20th 2016 will go down in Cruz family history as that moment when Ted Cruz detonated his career suicide belt and created the #NeverCruz movement.
Forget the non endorsement, thats not the issue. Senator Cruz had a remarkable opportunity, he blew it. Cruz accepted an invitation to speak to the GOP convention then insulted the audience. Cruz couldnt rise above his own brutal ego and petty selfishness. The arrogance simply went too far, he humiliated himself in front of millions.
Watch and see for yourself:..
It happened just like we predicted it would. Donald Trump gave Senator Ted Cruz the rope, and Ted hung himself -diminished himself- on national TV.
Dont be too angry
The backlash Cruz is going to get from his prideful and arrogant display will be written in the annals of political history and shared with political science classes for generations.

Booger Boy blew it. He’s finished.
You won’t have Ted Cruz to kick around any more.
Maybe some of you now can see what I saw a year ago that this cretin is pure evil and a foriegn enemy of America. I will never forget what this creep did tonite
Cruz is certifiably insane. That means his supporters are, too. My sister is still in love with him yet she loves Palin. She said she just doesn’t understand Palin endorsing Trump.
I hear that law firm advertising for Mesothiloma clients on Fox is overwhelmed with clients and is looking for more ambulance chasers
“I was an early Cruz supporter, even supported his senate race in Texas.”
I thought he was better than what he showed us all tonight. Totally classless. I’m really disappointed in him.
Comments from Levin yet?
I liked Trump from the beginning although I voted for Cruz in Virginia with full knowledge that he could not beat Hillary, thus a mostly conscience vote. But now I am done with the conscience vote and Mark Levin's purism because the American people rejected it. Too bad, a shame really, but a done deal.
"Grassy knoll. Grassy knoll."
I guarantee Levin will back Cruz and his speech 100%.
"Senator Ted Cruz in particular made the key point that we need to elect the Trump-Pence Republican ticket."
I think this proves that Cruz went off script. Whatever speech he had submitted to the Trump campaign for vetting didn't match what he actually said.
Newt took care of Cruz in short order.
I’ve read the previous comments and just think I know why I stopped supporting him. Not just because Trump entered the race but I got a “creepy” feeling.
Tonight he just looked like he was the cat who swallowed the canary and knew what he was NOT going to do.
Sara Palin worked to get him elected in Texas and then did not endorse him this time...I also wanted to trust her reason, though I do not know what it was.
Are these Texas delegates Cruz delegates? There were about 30 Trump delegates in Texas and 100+ Cruz delegates.
Well played!
He’s insane!!
Problem is there are “conservatives” who are not voting out of conscience. I’d like to make them unconscious.
Amanda Carpenter is unhinged on CNN attacking Trump. Isn’t she Cruz’s squeeze?
Cruz believes he is the fulfillment of the mormon white house prophesy while he claims to be a Christian.
The 2 are incompatible.
