Donald Trump has rescinded his pledge to support the Republican nominee for president.
Asked by moderator Anderson Cooper if he stood by the earlier pledge, Trump said: "No, I don't."
"We'll see who it is," he said during the CNN town hall.
He said he had been treated "unfairly" by the Republican National Committee and the GOP establishment. He said he was unsure whether the Republican establishment was plotting to take the nomination away from him during the convention in Cleveland.
He also said he didn't need Cruz to promise to support him should Trump win the nomination.
"Im not asking for his support," Trump said.
"I don't want his support, I don't need his support, I want him to be comfortable," Trump said, taunting Cruz for dancing around the issue of whether he would support Trump if Trump were the nominee.

jwalsh07 has called Mr. Trump an asshole, scumbag, false God, and Freepers morons, idiots, and cretins. I guess Mr. Trump has some work to do to win back your vote.
Changing his mind like he does so very often.

I don’t blame him at all. If he’s treated unfairly, the GOPe can rot.
“Cant say as I blame him. GO TRUMP GO”
I’m finding it really hard to say I will support the republican nominee if it’s not Trump. The republicans have been teaming up with Hillary, the media, Black Lives Matter, Bernie, and every insider who has screwed us all over to go after their FRONT RUNNER. Let that sink in. The democrats circle the wagons around a candidate under FBI investigation and republicans jump at every chance to help her along and knock down the most likely nominee.
Did you hear about Trump’s tax comments today regarding Gov. Walker?
I have a question. What is meant by support? Is it an endorsement, their vote or their promise not to run as a third party candidate?
“embarrassed seeing his wife nude NOW”
Doubt he is embarrassed of his wife or her photo. The Cruz ad wasn’t intended to be complimentary of Melania. I’m just thankful that it wasn’t a nude photo of Ted saying “vote for Ted and this could be your President”.
Blech.
My thoughts exactly.
I don’t know if I can support the nominee if it’s someone appointed by the party elders.
I want to, but if Trump is cheated out of it I may not support the nominee.
I’d crawl over broken glass to vote for Trump.
Cruz and the others, not so much.
Just another vote against the dems.
Meh.
Trump can beat Hillary..LOL. This week he lost every woman’s vote in country. With his antics he won’t even win the Republican nomination. Trump has as much chance as being the the next president as Custer’s bugler.
When Trump and Cruz had their private meeting very early in the campaign I wanted to think it was because they had this game plan to join forces somehow. Boy was I wrong! Now I believe it was one of two reasons. 1) Cruz wanted money or 2) Cruz tried to talk Trump out of running.
I guess that remains to be seen, huh????
And the GOPe is expecting us to believe they've been fair with Trump?
One big ahole, JoSixChip.
Nope, never said that. My personal opinion is whoever gets the most delegates should be the nominee. Even if it’s a Manhattan liberal.
BS, he also pointed out that the party has undermined him, worked as hard as they could against him, and is still doing so.
Its not some kind of suicide pact. That deal was given with the clear expectation that the party itself wasn’t trying to slaughter him.
Besides, if the party hierarchy is working so hard against him, why would they even want his support? That’s a total disconnect. Kinda insane really. “we hate you, you’re Mussolini, if you win, we might support Hillary....... Will you please support us?”
My intellect is average. Which means it’s three or four Sigma’s above yours.
Why don’t you try to beat it out of me Mr. DU. Lol
Never said that either. The MSM is a corrupt left wing enterprise. Even further left than Mr. Trump. Hope he is ready for what’s coming in the general election. Because I know for a fact Trump fans aren’t.
