Ted is attempting to defend himself to mixed applause.
It was very healing, and healing is exactly what we need.
After first pointing out the obvious again and again, sometimes a good dad has to just let their son or daughter see for him/herself what an idiot his/her infatuation fell for.
Trump is a good dad and there's always the morning after.
So...how's that Cruz infatuation today? All better now?
The more I see, the more I think it's safe to believe that America will be in good hands next January if Trump is pOTUS.

Seems to you ... buzz off, the steam is dying down now
Even evangelical voters didn’t like him.
And Cruz has no appeal to swing voters - he’s the kind of conservative liberals paint as too extreme.
He showed that in spades last night.
You are so right. He’s on par with the worst televangelist. It wasn’t about the cop, or the cop’s daughter, or the situation. It was a path to get the conversation (two “Carolines”) back to him using children as tools. Narcissists use people as tools to further their own wellbeing; he’s textbook.
That was all during the primary and should be put aside for the general election. Trump could have extended an olive branch but didn’t.
The numbers you posted are regarding his senate campaign.
The number I posted are regarding the TX presidential primary.

I honestly think Trump knew even before he ever extended the offer to speak as a headline speaker, that Cruz would be divisive somehow in his speech.
I think he calculated what the result would be.
If Cruz went negative. That it would have a positive effect for him and a negative effect for Cruz.
If Cruz had endorsed him it would have been a positive effect for both.
Either way, Trump wins.
Because Trump knew at this point those were the only real options. Nothing Cruz could have said, short of a major scandal that he could prove is true, would make one bit of difference.
If Cruz COULD NOT WIN the primary how in the HELL could ANYONE think he COULD WIN the general, Cruz won NOTHING in states that actually voted he won ONLY CAUCUSES!!!! He won caucuses BECAUSE they could be MANIPULATED!!!!
Color of the skies in your world?
Now Cruz will spend the next 4 months attacking Trump and the media will give him all the air time he wants.
There was a time when I thought he would make a fine Judge for the Supreme Court....not any more! as you say, he has no character....neither integrity nor honesty....Rubio is another phony...........
No thanks. Been there and done that for decades now, and here we are after having put up with the predator in chief, we now have the prospect of facing the predator in chief's wife at the helm? I see Ted and Heidi as in this for their own personal ambitions. He will triple-down now, as he has nowhere else to go. Good riddance.
He was talking about the Super Tuesday PRESIDENTIAL primary results.

As a TX voter, I think my most used word is more along the lines of ticked off and hoping for a primary challenger for the next senate election.
That was all during the primary and should be put aside for the general election. Trump could have extended an olive branch but didnt.
Are you serious?
9:00pm primetime speech. Cruz had it all tee'd up for a glorious reception.
He pulled another New York Values.
Tone-deaf-dumb-blind ... emphasis on deaf-dumb-blind.
And what about Cruz’s personal attacks against Trump, and his supporters?
Calling us “low-information,” “uneducated,” “Uniformed,” etc.
And blaming Trump for the riots in Chicago?
I wouldn’t pi$$ on that zealot Cruz if he were on fire.
Exactly! Trump is a counter-puncher.
Thanks. You are correct as I cited the Senate campaign not the GOP presidential primary.
My bad.
The presidential GOP Primary result.
