Wonder if you can sue him for misrepresentation or false advertising?

Bait and switch?

In terms of self-immolation, Ted Cruz made the Hindenburg look like a safety match.

How is it to Trump’s advantage to have an endorsement from someone that the majority of the population despises?

Isn't that the point of all this ? He didn't get Cruz's endorsement, and it was seen by a large segment of the population. It's now a matter of record. It's over and done with, and so is Cruz.

Out of respect for the many voters who supported Cruz.

“Note to remaining Cruzlims (you know who you are): Time to find the exit door and join Hillary.”

No. Unlike some FReepers, I think it’s wrong to call on people to leave FR because they have a difference of opinion on conservative or nationalist political candidates.

The real Ted Cruz was on display tonite, and he has done far more damage to himself than anything we could do.

Ted Cruz will have to explain his own actions, but I think more than a few of his supporters are horrified. No need to rub their noses in it. I got fooled by Ted, too. I just saw it sooner.

Some say Cruz went cheaply.

Clinton and Epstein got some minor girls
dressed up as little RATS and little JUDGES for
cheater-liar Ashley Cruz.

I saw him interacting with his two girls and it was the weirdest thing I have seen in a loooonnnnng time. It was like there was absolutely no bond between the father and children - almost like he was watching someone else’s kids and they had the same reaction to him.

There's a great gif of cruise's daughter flicking him off with her index finger. If you -anyone- can, please post it.

I respect Cruz for sticking to his guns.

This thing you said is stupid.

After hearing Ted Cruz tonight and hoping he would do the RIGHT THING, even if he didnt mean it, but just doing the RIGHT THING, he proved that he ONLY cares about HIMSELF..that’s it..even when he talked about Officer Michael Smith who was MURDERED in Texas and talking about Smith’s 9 year old daughter Caroline, Cruz had to make it ALL ABOUT HIM by saying both his kids have the same name..with Ted Cruz its ALWAYS about him..I gave him the benefit of the doubt that he would be like Reagan and be an honorable man, instead he showed himself to be a clown..he’s done and he KNOWS IT..just like Chris Christie couldnt win because he hugged Obama in 2012, Cruz is done because of tonight

That’s a good point.

Some commentators have observed that Republican voters are motivated by an irrational anger for the GOP Congress compromising with Obama too much,and that’s why they rejected the traditional GOP candidates.

This doesn’t make sense to me. The uncompromising GOP candidate was Cruz, not Trump. Trump was the explicitly non ideological candidate - he presented himself as a non ideological (conservative leaning) deal maker.

The angry uncompromising voters somehow rejected the uncompromising GOP candidate, Cruz.

Like most media mind viruses, it makes no sense.

If Cruz was so offended by Trump and the whole “lying Ted” thing during the primary, he should have stayed away from the convention. To instead show up and make a speech without endorsing the party’s nominee was just foul. Totally plays into the hands of the Democrats and their media. “Cruz withholds endorsement” is the given headline.

I sent Cruz money during the primary. Regret that.

I respect Cruz for sticking to his guns.
I respect Trump for letting Cruz stick to his guns and speak.
Donald is no fool. This will work to his advantage.


But by “sticking to his guns,” he violated his pledge...He made a pledge to support the nominee. He broke it. As a Christian, I find that reprehensible :(

Like I said, don’t sweat the small stuff.
For example Cankles showed at his wedding, not because she was invited but because he told her to come.
He owns these people and they hate him for it.
It’s like watching a grown man fight a crippled crab on crutches. Fuggedaboutit.
Having said that, he needs our help. Cruz was not helpful tonight.

We all make mistakes. I supported TC early on as well.

Your resignation is refused. :-)
