Ted Cruz speaks at an event in Cleveland to thank his delegates and volunteers for their support during his 2016 primary run.

"I'll just confess I didn't have the strength to do that and not breakdown," Cruz told supporters. "And we had 50 T.V. cameras there and I tell you, I wasn't going to let those SOBs turn Lyin' Ted into Cryin' Ted."

So now it’s cool to ridicule Christianity on FR?

[VideoDoctor]

Cruz is as big a narcissist as Obozo.

[mkjessup]

Don’t even try to be clever Sparky, your boy Ted was exploiting and using Christianity throughout his ill-fated primary campaign, and you damn well know it.

[Utmost Certainty]

No surprise.

Cruz = self-impressed weasel who thinks he’s following in Reagan’s footsteps.

Narcissistic delusions of grander à la Obama.

I’m not sure what is going on with this man.
I dropped all my support back in October and went all in for Trump.

All I can think is someone is funneling $$$ to him to pay off his campaign debt if he keeps fighting.
The problem with that logic is Cruz isn’t smart enough to avoid going to prison over it.

I am getting very worried about Cruz’s speech Thursday.
He could do serious damage to the Trump campaign.

Well, Lyin’ Ted did seal his birth records just like Comrade obamatollah.

[SaveFerris]

yep - mom prayed for hours at a time (and she rolls her eyes a bit)

I’m not sure what is going on with this man.

Lyin' Establishment Ted has been pure GOP-Establishment from the very beginning...as his voting record proves.

I am getting very worried about Cruz’s speech Thursday.

Lyin' Establishment Ted is speaking tonight.

[SaveFerris]

He’ll try. That seems to be clear.

Well if he does pull something funny, he better be ready to run to his safe space and hide for at least the next four months, because if he doesn't, you can best believe that some REAL American will come out of nowhere and literally kick his Cuban-Canadian ass and send him whimpering back to Calgary.

No. Cruz was not “exploiting” Christianity. You may hate the guy, and consider him a lying globalist, but he is a follower of Christ. There is no evidence that he is a poser.

I went through my Twitter followers to remove any #NeverTrumpers, and it was a smaller number than I thought it would be.

Don't kid yourself sonny, Cruz may profess Christianity as his beliefs, but he follows that whole 'Dominionist' doctrine as espoused by his wacko-Daddio preacher and everyone knows it and THAT crap is absolute blasphemy. If his daddy was a prophet, and proclaimed that his son Ted was 'anointed' of God to 'rule' this Country, what does it mean when that prophecy-prediction fell flat on it's face?

Go look to the Old Testament for how they dealt with false prophets, Daddy Cruz the Bigamist is lucky he's living in modern times.

There is PLENTY of evidence that he is a 'poser' and a total and complete fraud, how else to explain his conducting his campaign rallies like religious revivals, little different than Elmer Gantry when the audiences were eager for that brand of spiritual moonshine, but he goes to New Hampshire, drops all that talk about 'raising up Jesus' and then?

He loses New Hampshire big time.

Need more?

The next primary in South Carolina, where his cult followers all were yabbering away about how those evangelical voters were his 'natural base', guess who didn't carry even ONE county?

You got it, it was Saint Teddy, Trump swept EVERY county with the exception of a handful of counties that went for Rubio.

Even the spiritually perceptive evangelical voters saw right through that fake holy zealot routine Cruz was pulling.

Give your head a shake and wake up.

Worse than merely the fictional "Elmer Gantry": Ted Cruz is the modern-day equivalent of the (deservedly) infamous Aimee Semple McPherson -- a true-life religious charlatan and grifter who long ago minted all the low-rent "man of GAAAAWWWWWWWWD" jiggery-pokery Ted Cruz couldn't master competently this year, even with both his daddy and Glenn Beck valiantly assisting him in fleecing the willing rubes. ;)

Here is the scoop on what Crying Ted will do:

He is a small pimple of a man with zero-Christian character. Very disappointed but the character assessments of him on Free Republic have been spot on.

[EDINVA]

If I were to place a wager, I think he’d hang himself (metaphorically speaking) rather than endorse Trump. But he won’t recognize it as his own political suicide (an event I think took place ever so slowly over the course of the primaries).

[Ms Mable]

Beck, Ted Cruz and his father are all liars.

They did their best to fool us by saying God had told them blah blah blah. None of it happened.

God does NOT make mistakes, God is 100% accurate - 100% of the time. So apparently....they were not telling the truth about what “they said” God told them!

Shame on them!

[free_life]

A failure to endorse, support and vote for Donald Trump the Republican nominee for President of the United States is support for Hilliary Clinton!

Do you know another way to keep Hilliary out of the Presidency?
