Can’t believe he did not just straight up endorse.
I was an admirer of his for standing up to the political machine. Now I think it was all an act to push his own career. So disappointed in this guy.
Must admit I’ve done a 180 on him, since several months back. He comes off as a rather small, petty, petulant child to me now. Couldn’t even do what was best for the Country last evening, WOW!!!!
There could be no way after last night I’d be willing to support him for any further office.
Such a shame.

Many Trump supporters have been saying that since at least late last year. I really thought when Cruz blamed Trump for the violent demonstrations it would turn more Cruz supporters than it did. While it did sway a good number of them, it was in no way a majority. As for not believing that he did not endorse, I saw it coming all the way. For as smart as Cruz is there is a character flaw there that limits his true potential. Welcome aboard the Trump train. We are riding it all the way to D.C.

I thought some of the same last night.

In his speech to the Texas delegates, he had points of why he would not endorse Trump. For one, he told Donald he would not so Trump knew. Second, he would not endorse Trump for the terrible things he said about his wife and dad. That got a few eyes rolling from the TX. group. So, he asked them, would they endorse someone who publically shamed their wife and dad? Cruz can take it and converse with those opposing his views but it is not right for a man who is running for the highest office in the land to slander family and then not apologize publically for doing so. I agree. And, he states it right. We do not know what Donald Trump will side with on several issues that could continue the tearing up of this country. I believe he can build us up financially, but we also need to be built up with character (which Ted has) and uphold the Constitution and our freedoms and liberties that have dwindled so fast in this century and we’re not fighting government as a whole to restore them!!!

Now, I don’t have TV but did watch Eric Trump’s speech. Loved it and have hope his dad will bring this country back from the abyss edge we have half a foot into!!! We have to wake up.

Cruz will vote, but not for Hillary. Newt was right, he said what Cruz said was correct and said why. We should own this country and tell government what to do not the other way around! I will vote, Trump was not my first two choices, but I will vote for him and hope he defends and brings back freedoms and liberties that will keep us safe and make our future brighter.

Too many people on FR are flying off the handle about Cruz just as the media has. He’s not perfect, but he wants a better country and would make an awesome Chief Justice. As I have said before, meet him in person and you’ll change your mind about him. You’d want him as a friend or neighbor if you have a heart of flesh and not stone.
