Full speech is worth listening to. Something of the Ted I used to admire shone through.

Bygones really do need to be bygones, folks. Please drop the hate. The 11th Commandment needs to be invoked if we are ever going to block the Hildebeast.

As my dad taught me, “If you can’t say anything nice about someone then don’t say anything at all.” Just let it go, please?

Something that everybody seems to forget is just WHY the GOPe hated Ted Cruz, and still does. Any “alliance” they showed toward him was purely #neverTrump and not the least bit friendly. Remember filibusters, hardline stances on spending and Obamacare, government shutdowns, etc.?

Cruz has been an unyielding conservative warrior in the Senate and very possibly the best Constitutionalist in office today. He would be the perfect replacement for Scalia on SCOTUS but his place in the Senate may be a gold mine.

If Trump lives up to his potential for starting a revolution in American government ... and I hope to hell he does ... then Ted Cruz in the Senate would be an incredible ally. I don’t expect Cruz to be offered the VP slot (did I just hear Newt Gingrich’s name floated?) but I do expect peace to break out between Cruz and Trump soon. Fences will be mended. Count on it.

Then let the revolution begin.

He is an honorable man, he did the honorable thing to heal the divide and move forward.

Ted Cruz is still my senator and he will be there, be re-elected as our senator from Texas when time comes.

More importantly, he will continue to give the establishment that hates him so......heartburn.

God Bless Mr. Cruz and thank you for fighting for the constitution.

How and when will his delegates be ‘reassigned’?

“Full speech is worth listening to. Something of the Ted I used to admire shone through.”

I think he lost himself along the way. Politics does that - power and ego combine and change people. He probably had incredible pressure from donors.

now that it’s over, he’ll likely regret some of his actions.

And return to who he was, hopefully.

I thought he gave a good speech, except he could have shown a little more class and congratulated Trump.

Now Trump can turn his fire (figuratively) on Hillary!

Cruz did the right thing by dropping out. I’m leaving it at that and now look forward to The Donald crushing Berny and Hillary! This is going to be soooo sweet!

If Cruz left it on the field, chances are good it’s covered with flies and stinking by now

Cruz had no chance against Hildebeast. Now it comes out, of course.

"We left it all on the field"

Yes you did Senator Cruz. Thank you for trying to wake people up and remind them of why our Constitution matters. (Sadly they just don't want to hear it right now.)

Thank you for doing the right thing for our country by dropping out. (I never had any doubt that you would do what was right for the country.)

Thank you for vowing to continue the fight for Liberty and our Constitution.

You and your family should have never been subjected to the vicious personal attacks you've had to endure during your campaign.

God bless you and your family.
