It seems like Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has determined where his conscience is leading him, and its toward Donald Trump.
The endorsement could come as early as Monday, unnamed sources, close to Mr. Trumps campaign, told Lifezette. Those sources noted that Cruz has become seriously concerned about the long-term threats to the Constitution and conservative priorities, should Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton win the White House, the online political site, founded by conservative pundit Laura Ingraham, reported.

Cruz was hoping and working for a Hillary-win. But I guess Cruz is starting to worry that Trump may win, and for his own career, he decided that he better get on the Trump train.
At this point, what difference does it make? Hillary
Nah. He's concerned he won't find a donor base willing to fund his next campaign unless he endorses Trump.
You got it. Cruz finally saw the writing on the wall and went into self-preservation mode.
Watch out for incoming Ted-
There’s gonna be a lot of PISSED Never Trumpers.
I’m expecting Tuesday morning (after the debates), unless it happens today. Trump ALWAYS does endorsements the morning after a debate.
The one good thing is that it breaks up the ‘never trumper’ group.
Hide the Cheetos and sharp objects from Beck.
There is not a micrometer made that could measure how little I care.
How many people even remember Ted?
I agree. The damage/chaos from his non-endorsement up to now has already been done. Besides, is there any one sitting around waiting for Ted Cruz to tell them who to vote for? He is only doing it so he can now say he endorsed Trump and people will forget that it came late in the game.
“Ted Cruz endorsement of Donald Trump forthcoming”
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Trump must be doing extremely well in the polls if Cruz is willing to turn his back on the Clinton supporters like Romney and Graham who Cruz previously followed.
Or maybe he was expecting some form of payment or favor from the Romney/Clinton people for opposing Trump and they double crossed him.
Translation:
” ME ME ME!
I WANNA BE,
ON THE LIST FOR SUPREME COURT NOMINEE! !!!
( Forget Mike Lee! I smell a real OPPRLORTUNITEE!!! WHEEE!)
All going according to plan. Cruz and the rest of the Never Trumper wanted to continue the primary up until the debates. That was the point of his tantrum at the convention. Trump didn’t take the bait and Cruz got blow back so he stayed quiet.
Now that Cruz has established his moral superiority over “NY Liberal” Trump and his unwashed supporters Cruz is able to support the defeat of Hillary Clinton. Very brave of Cruz, no doubt. LOL.
Nah. He’s concerned he won’t find a donor base willing to fund his next campaign unless he endorses Trump.
Or a voting base. Cruz needs those 14 million Trump primary voters. He is politically dead without Trumpers.
Apparently there was a single shot in Levin’s bunker this morning???
Pray America wakes
He’s wavering also-
