So why did Cruz feel the need to comment? Like people care what he thinks?
I think he will be actively campaigning for Trump in the coming weeks.
Ted is playing catch-up on his ass kissing now that Trump appears to be winning.
Yes. Many do.
Cruz has a lot of supporters on this site. Many were ‘Never Trumpers’ who might now vote Trump based on this change.
The more people who support him, the better.
I care.
I'm rather glad he did comment! He's got a lot of #NeverTrumpers in his bag. Might influence more than a few.
The polls are trending to a Trump win, Ted realizes that in "Party Politics" you are either "with the Party" or "against the Party" Congress Critters who are found to be" against the Party" don't get the choice seats on the Congressional Committees.
When Trump wins the election he will be the defacto head of the Republican Party. Ted knows he has no cards to play except for the ones that boost Trump's candidacy.
If not he will be persona non grata in the Republican controlled congress. He would be better off switching parties at that point.
Let’s face facts: we need every vote.
If Cruz has had he “come to Jesus moment, I say, “what took you so long?”.
Other than that, he is a politician that we need to help push this thing over
The finish line. Believe it or not, the spin for Hillary is going to be unbearable, so I’m glad he has jumped on board the train.
I look at all of this differently, a big light has been shone on Republicans and so called conservatives. Now we know who they really are, but we need to use them until we throw their Asses out of DC.
>>So why did Cruz feel the need to comment? Like people care what he thinks?
I care what he thinks. I only supported him for about the first 2 weeks after he announced his candidacy at Liberty University, but he is an important figure in the NeverTrump movement and his enthusiastic support takes some of the wind out of their sails.
As a Trumper supporter, I'm grateful for help from anyone during these final weeks before Election Day. Let's be happy whenever anyone tries to push Trump over the finish line.
A lot of conservatives do. Cruz was the only conservative in the race with a chance of winning. Do you have something against conservatives?
go Cruz
Yea, Trump could take or leave his endorsement [S]
1) because he’s right
2) because too many commentators felt the need to tell us that Trump missed X, Y and Z opportunities and Hillary was so wonderful, but they entirely missed the point of how Trump got this far and why he’s winning. It’s not about debate points, it’s about change. And Trump positioned himself as the agent of change.
3) and because it shows that Cruz learned the lesson of why he lost. He’s the best debater in modern history and he lost to Trump. Not because Trump is a better debater, but because Trump tied everyone else to Washington and positioned himself as the only alternative.
“So why did Cruz feel the need to comment? Like people care what he thinks?”
Because Trump needs every vote right now. He is going to have to win at the ballot box by huge numbers to overcome the ballot boxes that have already been stuffed and will be stuffed by election officials all over this Nation that have been ‘bought’ by Soros. As my late father-in-law used to say about Virginia...we have the best politicians that money can buy!
Why look a gift horse in the mouth? Yes, there are a lot of folks who still care what he thinks and may be swayed by his support for Trump.
Why? because he is an ally - who Reagan would be happy to call a friend:

There really is no point in being snarky about it.
It is time to unite. We should be magnanimous in victory. If Cruz were actively undermining the Trump campaign then I would agree with your statement but now is the time to unite to defeat the rat communist party that is destroying America.
I think its important, because like Cruz's endorsement, he gives short but well written, rational reason to vote for Trump, that will appeal to many of the #nevertrump crowd.
I'll take ANY help we can get for this election, from anybody. The stakes are just that high.
