I’ve turned on him, because Cruz has turned on the American voter and shown himself to be a dishonorable man. To win at any cost is to lose. He should have learned that in Iowa, but he did not.

Good post......Cruz shows no respect for our political system.

His contempt for the intelligence of voters, acting as if they can't possibly know what he's up to.....has triggered a visceral dislike for the man.

I never ‘turned’ on Ted because, having always seen him as a highly ambitious politician with stars in his eyes, I was never ‘for’ him. And if I actually thought Ted Cruz really gave a shit about me personally, I’d voluntarily seek psychiatric help.

His repeated actions put his delegates in place in states that he lost is one of the most offensive things I have ever seen anyone do.

The man absolutely makes me sick as a result of this.

Do you read what you post?
Please reread your comments after one year of a Trump administration (yes, I think it is inevitable) and try to remember those naive days when you were part of a game changing movement, try not to cry.

Do you honestly believe that Trump has "respect for our political system" when he has (on record):
Advocated violence against protesters & his opposition,
Declared Ben Carson to be a mediocre surgeon, (before Cruz's "out of the race" gaffe),
Threatened to destroy the GOP if he is not treated differently than all others (in his mind..."fairly"),
Misrepresented pre existing primary rules as having been written solely to hurt (only) Donald Trump,
Elevated childish insults to the level of discourse ("that face").
And, who seems intent on deepening the chasm with every word or motion.

Yet, somehow, you can claim that it is Cruz who does not respect the same system that he has tried to reform for as long as he has held office?
And which you now claim is supporting Cruz in his disrespectful use of party rules.

Contempt for the voters??
Please.
At least Cruz treats us as voters and not as sheep!
(Your "visceral dislike" is a direct mirror of what you've heard from the podium...confirmed today when Cruz attempted to talk to a robot protester in Indiana)
If you are still in doubt, please review the preceding paragraph

Finally, the Trump camp insists that the media is trying to destroy their candidate. Nonetheless, I've had the TV on Fox almost all day (Monday) and as near as can be determined, they've written Cruz off and begun to parrot the "majority of votes" hypocrisy from Trump's "fairness" whine.
