Ever since those who were taken in by Cruz started to stop supporting him, a lot of us said the same thing. Cruz fools a lot of people initially, with his rhetoric and lofty ideals. But, after awhile, one by one, folks see through it. Once someone sees that "something", it's creepy to even watch or listen to him anymore. It never goes away.

The convention, with Cruz's self-involved speech that seemed more like a coup attempt than anything else was just such a moment for Cruz supporters who still hadn't seen that something. I can only conclude that those who are still supporting Cruz don't care. They're part of his scheme.

You are so right and it was a process of about 4 months for me. I will never support him for anything ever again.

Well stated, grania.
For me, when Trump announced I was right there, having been a Cruz supporter.

I’m from the area and know Donald Trump. I’ve known him most of my life. He is a tough bargainer, but a man of his word. This is well known back east. He is admired and respected.

In fairness, I vetted Cruz. I’d taken Texas freepers word for who he is. Being Christian, I first looked at his church-7 Mountain Dominionism. I could not believe what I read. There is nothing scriptual about that church! Nothing.

I had done a Google search & when I went back to read it again, it was gone. In it’s place was pablum, not what I had read! Google must have buried it deep. They hid the truths of that church.

I was done. Cruz continued to disappoint since then. I could not unsee what I’d seen. Blaspheme.

Cruz was a terrible disappointment, but I learned my lesson: Always VET for yourself.

Don’t be surprised if he works with Levin, etc., to begin a mass write-in campaign.
