U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz is standing by his support of Donald Trump following the release of a 2005 clip showing the Republican presidential nominee speaking lewdly about women.
Cruz, who endorsed Trump in September after a months-long holdout, was asked Monday by an interviewer in Muleshoe if he was "still backing the Republican candidate for president, Donald J. Trump."
"I am supporting the Republican nominee because I think Hillary Clinton is an absolute disaster," Cruz replied.

Cruz did give initial response on 2005 tape, but IIRC he did not comment on change of support or not in his statement.
Also the OH gov was last against trump in the primary. I think it was all on one day he said he was still going on, Cruz finally dropped out then OH gov end of day or next morning said he was out too.
At least Cruz knows how to put his finger in the wind. :-)
Agree
If it is so evident why is it necessary to make the claim. If you can take the time to make the claim of something so self-evident, why can't you take the time to prove it?
terd cruz’s squeamish reaction to the tape is pure politically-correct dweebness.
Well at least terd is consistent about something: he constantly begs for money.
Good for Newt. Good for Cruz. GO TRUMP GO
Bingo!
“I predict Becks media empire will disintegrate within the next 6 months”
I hope you are correct.
Didn't Trump also say that his own words were embarrassing?
This guy does more pivots than a Ballet dancer?
You’re not helping.
If Cruz was a lesser man he would say Trump should die by his own sword. Trump’s followers (incudling the “good Christians” here on FR) were plenty willing to let media-hyped rumors destroy Cruz but cry when the same thing is about to happen to Trump.
Cruz is a bigger man. He sees that this is a Winston Churchill time for America. When the chips were down, at the bleakest moment, nobody cared whether Churchill was a saint or a sinner (or, like all of us as Scripture says, both at the same time); what matters is that he will fight. For better or for worse, Trump is today’s Churchill, and Cruz recognizes that as do a bunch of us.
Those who keep trying to pick at the still-fresh scabs from the primary back-stabbing only serve Satan’s interests.
YOu will be getting Freepemail!!
Noted. As Reagan said, trust but verify. Wise as serpents, harmless as doves.
I saw that. He looked humbled and I hope that wasn’t just a photo op. I’ve posted elsewhere about Cruz that when his help was most needed it wasn’t there and when it was much less needed it was, so that one could wonder if it was done more for Cruz’s own political career. But he is apparently sticking with Trump through the current scandal the lying press is pushing, and that’s good if genuine.
Eat terd.
