Just in: @TedCruz is ending his presidential campaign, campaign manager Jeff Roe tells me.

We’ve come a long way from Wisconsin.

My condolences to the Cruz folks, though. I know how I felt when Santorum dropped out. It’s sad. Cruz is doing something smart, though. By dropping out now, he’s ensuring his political future in the senate and if he wants to run again in the future.

We’re down to Kasich, folks.

Finally doing the honorable thing.

Will there be amnesty for the Cruzbots?

lmao!!

Poor California! They really thought that they’d finally get to be important this election.

[Osage Orange]

The GOPe will do what it does...............

I noticed earlier today that Ted has gotten a LOT BETTER at speaking extemporaneously. Donald will kind of force you to do that. Good for him (Ted).

Super EXTRA fasting time..!

I didn’t like Cruz but I would have voted for him. There’s no way on earth I’d vote for the Fraudster Trump, so I guess I’m sitting this one out.

>>Go easy on the guy, and bring him aboard somehow Donald.

I agree. Cruz fought hard, even if he didn’t fight smartly. Now is the time for Trump to reach out to him and bring him up for something.

How can Kasich stay in now?

Props to Cruz...too bad it’s too late (I think) to join with Trump.

PS..Can’t stand Cruz’s voice...so won’t miss him

Down goes Carly for good

[mkjessup]

Cruz QUITS?!?!?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Say it's not TRUE, I am seriously heartbroken here, NOW what I am gonna do with all of these graphics, animated gifs, sinking ocean liners, exploding H-bombs, sink holes with zombies diving in, omg, this is a tragic loss!!

(just kidding ;)

On a serious note, NOW is the time for true unification to begin, everyone, from the Trump and Cruz campaigns, all the way down to the local level and online in web forums like FR, needs to focus on the Fall, and the absolutely vital need to put Hillary Rotten Criminal into the BIG House, not the White House.

Props to Cruz...too bad it’s too late (I think) to join with Trump.

He’s trying to save what’s left of his political career.

Ripping the party apart doesn’t help him at all in the long run.

[Lazamataz]

He better get working on his Senate campaign. That’s one that’s iffy, now.

[Fast Moving Angel]

Cruz for SCOTUS!!

[mmichaels1970]

Good move. Thanks Ted. Well, Rubio is still in third
