Sen. Ted Cruz, Donald Trump's former chief rival for the GOP nomination, will speak at the Republican National Convention later this month, the Texas senator told reporters after the two met Thursday in Washington.
Cruz told reporters Thursday that the real estate mogul offered his former primary rival a speaking slot during the meeting and Cruz accepted. He added that he and Trump did not discuss an endorsement.

Art of the deal. We’ll see how it goes.
Trump the Frog offers Scorpion Cruz a ride across the river....
We shall see who is man enough to not hold childlike grudges.
I can’t wait to watch that greasy face and hair, and listen to Ted’s piercing, nasal voice for an hour, non-stop!
Mistake.
“Ted” (not his real name) is a deceiver and a backbiter.
Cruz has agreed to speak at the Republican National Convention. Whether or not he even mentions Trump, he can certainly help the party’s down ticket candidates with a strong conservative message. He should be able to shred Hillary.
hopefully with the stipulation that if he starts talking bs, Trump’s bodyguards will escort him out.
“Cruz told reporters Thursday that the real estate mogul offered his former primary rival a speaking slot during the meeting and Cruz accepted. “
Trump is a gracious man, offering anything to that snake.
I hope Cruz puts the good of the country first during his speech, and sets ego aside.
Maybe Cruz agreed to talk about issues and not Trump.
Trump paid for this microphone!
If his wife joins him onstage at the end, I hope she wears protective gear for her face.
Got a feeling my sock drawer is gonna be due for a good sortin’ about the time the formerly-lyin’ Ted comes on!
[I can’t wait to watch that greasy face and hair, and listen to Ted’s piercing, nasal voice for an hour, non-stop!
I wonder how many boogers he’ll eat during the speech...
“If his wife joins him onstage at the end, I hope she wears protective gear for her face.”
Class!
Nothing but class!
Did I miss something? Is Cruz going to be the nominee after all? If so he could give himself a speaking slot. Otherwise that would be up to, for example, Donald Trump.
Of course Cruz could have just called up Trump and told him that he had assigned himself a speaking slot.
No, somehow that doesn't seem logical.
OK, it's late here on the top of Mt. Everest and I'm out of oxygen. Plus my WiFi is getting weak and I may not be able to post amymore today. Time to get going. I'll post again when I get back to Base Camp or Camp 6 or whatever.
Big Trump fan here.
And Trump is big enough to bury the hatchet with Sen Cruz.
Sen Cruz will apparently do likewise.
The rest of use might fall in line and bicker about somebody on the other ticket instead of our own. Follow DJT’s example. Y’know, if you want.
Exactly as I have been predicting for a least a couple of months. The Speaking Slot = The Endorsement. If not Trump is too stupid to be President. And he's not. They made a deal. That's Trump's forte. Cruz got what he was after and there is Peace in the Valley.
Dear Cruz Haters: Whisky will help. Vodka works also. You can use beer but it will take a lot of it for most you. There are also materials that can be smoked but I'm really wouldn't recommend that to anybody. Brain cells need to be preserved, particularly if you're a Freeper or at least pretending to be one.
“Oh shut up, silly woman,” said the reptile with a grin.
You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in.”
Ruh Roh... I hope you have a backup in case this snake bites!
So to hell with Cruz and all of his supporters?
