Ted Cruz asks Trump to campaign for him in Texas

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz has asked President Donald Trump to come to Texas to campaign for him.

During a campaign stop in Seguin late Monday, Cruz said he has reached out to his former rival for the White House to help him with his re-election effort against Democrat Beto O’Rourke.

“I would certainly welcome his support and I hope to see him in Texas,” Cruz said, standing outside the Dixie Grill in Seguin. “I think we are likely to see the president down in Texas before the election.”

Cruz said while his relationship with Trump has had its “ups and downs” due to their 2016 GOP primary battle, he has tried to become an ally to the President. He said he has been in constant contact with the White House and Trump directly to offer his help in getting legislation through the Senate.

No, I gave you facts, but you will not acknowledge them.

What "facts"? That Cruz belatedly supported Trump? You can't even admit that Cruz made a mistake at the convention. He had an opportunity to unite the party and instead, put his personal animus for Trump above winning the election.

IMO Cruz never believed Trump could win. He was positioning himself to run against Hillary in 2020, hence his actions at the convention.

Ted Cruz endorsed Donald Trump for the presidency Friday afternoon, a stunning turn of events after a contentious primary filled with nasty personal attacks and a dramatic snub at the Republican National Convention.

"After many months of careful consideration, of prayer and searching my own conscience, I have decided that on Election Day, I will vote for the Republican nominee, Donald Trump," Cruz wrote in a Facebook post.

"A year ago, I pledged to endorse the Republican nominee, and I am honoring that commitment. And if you don't want to see a Hillary Clinton presidency, I encourage you to vote for him."

Not a ringing endorsement and just six weeks before election day.

No - not likely. Definitely not Perino. She has a real hate on for the POTUS.
