A post on another thread suggests that "supporting" and "endorsing" aren't the same thing, so Cruz didn't actually break his pledge.

Hi you may be new to politics and not realize that there’s a reason he’s called Lyin’ Ted. So let me enlighten you:
The text of the pledge: I [name] affirm that if I do not win the 2016 Republican nomination for president of the United States I will endorse the 2016 Republican presidential nominee regardless of who it is. I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party.

Yes, stand upon that, by all means.
Ted “supported” no one but himself last night.
He congratulated Trump in the beginning of his diatribe, like the losing boxer congratulates the winner.
Ted did not even ask anyone to vote for Trump, instead giving out a dog whistle to the few Cruzoids still out there somewhere to “vote their conscience”.
No way for Lyin’ Ted to spin what we all saw last night.
A mentally ill Canadian poser with a Mussolini complex trying to be the winner of the pageant after the winner has been declared.
I would not want such a mentally unstable person anywhere near the launch codes.
What Ted did last night was not forgivable.
Trump extended the olive branch and Ted pissed all over it.
Despicable and contemptible.
We’re sick of having to dissect every word & every sentence
that politicians speak & still not being able to TRUST A
WORD that spews out of their pieholes!
That depends on what the meaning of the word “is” is.
What is your reaction to that post?

Here’s the pledge Ted and all the rest signed:
The text of the pledge: I [name] affirm that if I do not win the 2016 Republican nomination for president of the United States I will endorse the 2016 Republican presidential nominee regardless of who it is. I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party.

The people claiming he didn’t break it are liars.
