Its called self immolation. July 20th 2016 will go down in Cruz family history as that moment when Ted Cruz detonated his career suicide belt and created the #NeverCruz movement.
Forget the non endorsement, thats not the issue. Senator Cruz had a remarkable opportunity, he blew it. Cruz accepted an invitation to speak to the GOP convention then insulted the audience. Cruz couldnt rise above his own brutal ego and petty selfishness. The arrogance simply went too far, he humiliated himself in front of millions.
Watch and see for yourself:..
It happened just like we predicted it would. Donald Trump gave Senator Ted Cruz the rope, and Ted hung himself -diminished himself- on national TV.
Dont be too angry
The backlash Cruz is going to get from his prideful and arrogant display will be written in the annals of political history and shared with political science classes for generations.

That is the art of the Deal. Trump plays chess and saw that this would be T destroying himself in the wrong place. That's exactly right. The Cruz faction was the most organized rnc threat left against trump. He let their standard bearer go out and kill the movement completely. In doing so Trump also eliminaTED Cruz as a rival in 2020 or at least seriously weakened his standing among conservatives.

[Cruzs actions tonight only re-enforces his love of self over love of country.]
Not only is he in love with himself, remember he is also a lawyer.....a member of the least liked profession.
The difference between a hooker and a lawyer is that the hooker will stop screwing you when you are dead.

Is that someone’s office? Obviously, Ted isn’t practicing in Canada.

I agree with that. I am not overly angry. I am still totally stunned and amazed at the deep, abiding, foundational stupidity of that man. It is a stupidity that is positively breathtaking.

He admitted Trump wasn't his guy, but when it looked like it was over a couple of months back, he said he'd support Trump. Said tonight he supports, and will vote for, Trump.
So, yeah! Pretty amazing for Sununu.

Limbaugh has always spoken quite positively about TRUMP. Don’t know what the heck you are speaking about.

If Cruz did have affairs, I wonder if it will come out now in another source besides the NE?
