If Cruz was interested in seeing Hillary beat he would have endorsed Trump within a week of stopping his campaign. His behavior of fragging Trump from time to time indicates he wants a Hillary presidency more than a Trump presidency. Ted Cruz is not a man of principle.

Yeah, but he's got the Elmer Gantry shtick down, almost as well as Slick Willy.

Add Judge Janine Pirro the Womens Night of speakers at the convention.

Show the Republican women have reasons to back Trump over the old grey Nag.

AFTER... AFTER...

He has to get there first.


Yes, yes, I know all of the Cruz sycophants are like Linus sitting in the pumpkin patch, hoping and praying for that miracle. For Linus, it's the Great Pumpkin; for the die hard Cruz folks, it's the point whereby Lyin' Ted snatches the nomination away...

Cruz has no obligations to Trump.

He probably will endorse, but he will not be forced into it.

One of Romney’s worst mistakes was to shun Conservatives at the Convention, when Sarah Palin’s presence could have saved him with Conservative voters.

It would be beyond foolish to repeat that mistake this year.

Not a Constitutional issue is it, boys? Not really a rule either, more like a guideline. Well, those two pledged to endorse the nominee. I do not believe they should have a place at the convention without endorsing Trump.

Bravo, Mr. Trump, for making them pay for reneging on the pledge!! They’re getting what they deserve.
My only concern is that Kasich might sabotage Ohio for Trump!

He’s forever Lying Ted to a majority of Republicans and even more so on a national scale. What a speedy demise for the “next Reagan”.
Next up for the meaningless label!
David French or George Will?

I just keep remembering when these effete elites kept saying “ you have no choice you have to vote for X” so people held their nose and voted.

Now that the effete elites have to hold their noses, we find out they are nothing more that spoiled little crybaby hypocrites unworthy of any regard or respect.

Cruz is going to go get a job at a mega law firm selling his past titles as a prestige lawyer.

LOL! You know what would be awesome, is if someone could edit that video of Trump wrestling McMahon and put Hillarys face on McMahon LOL LOL. On the other hand, all the libs and RINOs would scream sexism and women abuse.......

Question:

Before this campaign season, was a candidate, that had enough delegates to clinch the nomination, ever referred to as a “presumptive nominee”?
