Ted Cruz repeatedly declined to endorse Donald Trump for president on Tuesday as he returned to the Senate....

Which speaks volumes.

Damned politicians. And Senators.... I think I've gotta barf.

Nope. Just adding onto what you said. The “Cruz should just release his delegates and then go kill himself” crowd is being deliberately obtuse. He’s not the first to ever suspend a campaign and not release his delegates and I doubt he’ll be the last. Some people act as if they’ve never witnessed a political campaign before. :-(

Why would a canadian endorse Trump and why would Trump want it?

No votes except for ObamaTRADE for the lying
bastard known as Ashley Cruz.

Lying Ted was too busy banging his Bang of Eight
and cashing his Goldman Sachs checks.

If he has violated that public pledge, what pledges can we expect him to honor?
******************************
Cruz and Rubio both signed the pledge to support the GOP nominee.

The nominee will be chosen by delegates’ votes at the convention in July.

“..he continued, saying it would be incumbent on Trump to convince pro-Cruz voters to support him in the general election.”

Says who? Either you like him and vote for him or you don’t. Trump doesn’t need to kiss anyone’s ring.

I would say it is incumbent that Cruz, who lost, endorse Trump in order to bridge the divide and thus unify the party.

Cruz is no better than Ryan. He signed the pledge. Now we know what his word is worth

Sorry Ted you lost. You need to help unify the party else wise you and Yeb and Linda can pound sand

I can even understand a bit of petulant. A ton of emotion goes into be a candidate. Add to that going up against a guy like Trump and I say cooling off time is understandable.

Stay classy Trump fans, most of us will vote against Hillary rather than stay home. We may have clothespins on, but we’ll vote for Trump after he is nominated.


Trumpers are willing to let bygones be bygones after a spirited primary. Unfortunately, Ted Cruz has signaled to his surrogates to continue attacking Trump. First we had the tantrum press conference the day he dropped out and now we have this “I may get back in the race” nonsense. Don’t think you can hide behind “we’ll vote for Trump” while Cruz surrogates campaign for Hillary at the behest of Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz simply has no interest in unifying the party and he will pay a price for his tantrums.
