Ted Cruz will not vote for Hillary Clinton, he said at a Texas delegation briefing Thursday morning, but said that he was not ready to back Donald Trump.
Cruz walked the Texas delegation through his thinking in giving Wednesday's speech, saying that he had given the Trump campaign ample heads up that he was not planning to endorse the Republican Party nominee, and that they had spoken three days ago, when the Texas senator made clear that an endorsement would not be coming.
But he did not rule out an endorsement in the future.

Too little, too late.
You could have said that last night when you advised Americans to vote their conscience.
And you still can’t bring yourself to support our party’s nominee.
Ted, you suck and your morning mea culpa won’t make up for what you did last night.
Just go home, you insufferable prig!
Ted Sucks.
Cruz is the biggest political ars of the century - Heidi will end up leaving him.
Heidi is the driving force behind this.
Yet he’d rather see Hillary get elected than Trump. It may be a policy thing, or that he wants a shot in 2020 (and still things he has a chance), or he wants Hillary go get his wife a promotion.
Whatever the reason, he wants Hillary to win this year. If he didn’t want her he’d do everything he can to stop her - he did the opposite of trying to stop her last night.
“You could have said that last night when you advised Americans to vote their conscience.”
Yes, he could have even said that he and Trump have differences, and that there are personal issues that he is still upset about that he hopes the two of them can discuss and address, but then go on to say that he puts country and principle before all else except God and family, and that he will therefore fight with Trump to defeat Hillary and preserve liberty in America. It would have been easy, fallen short of a full endorsement, and been the right thing to do. He just can’t get beyond himself.
Amen.
My first vote as a new Texan was for him, but I won’t make that mistake again.
Obviously it is not in the man to be gracious or forgiving. What an ambassador for Christ he is.
Little Cruz, it isn't, and won't be about you.
Just heard on Chris Plante that Cruz tried to meet with Sheldon Adelson and was told he wan’t welcome.
If the good people of Texas re-elect this turd to the Senate, they are idiots.
#nevercruzforscotus also
True...and in a strange way, Cruz’s actions may have inspired the Berners to keep holding out against Hillary...one can hope.
Since lying ted is from Texas no body gives a shit how he votes or doesn't vote. He does not count, we don't need him and
I WANT MY MONEY RETURNED!!!
LOL!
The Frank Lump cheering section thought he was wonderful last night.
I agree. He’s the type that is lead by his boss, I mean wife.
I wanted to like him, until I learned more about his wife. Nowadays, we are not just voting for the one, but the entire married package. Kinda like when my dad told me that I wasn’t just marrying my wife, but her entire family.
Trump is to blame. Hahahaha.
