Not the smartest move but I think it would be best not to dwell on it

Apparently she had a break down years ago, and was found sitting in the median strip of a very busy highway. Ya gotta wonder what goes on in that household. But to do what he did last night, to me, was the ultimate embarrasement...proved his true demeaner....and he did it regardless of anyone else's feelings, including his family...

You can stand by your convictions, that's one thing, but to go before a crowd like that, that received and voted for Trump...well?

and they said, he was still angry with Trump over Trumps nasty remarks to him, well, Trump never attacked Cruz, until Cruz attacked Trump....and Trump went for the jugular.

What you say?
I clearly shows why so many Rep came out against Cruz and why is the least likable and no team player which in politics you are part of a team.

In every team sport every player has to play to show he is better than the person on the side who tries to play on that same spot but it is also at the same time showing team spirit and showing you can perform your best while part of that team and if can't be a team player you have to be in a different field where you can shine on your own.

Politics is not about Cruz and him being a narcissist person but for the greater good and Cruz clearly never is doing it for the people but for Cruz almighty who is now Cruz all low!

Every candidate who didn't keep to the pledge by supporting the nominee which is actually what the pledge was signed for is showing their true colors and Rubio saved the day and his career which is noble and smart and everyone who read my posts knows I'm not a Rubio fan.

Graham was already history... Bush sank faster than the Titanic and even though McCain didn't sign the pledge and neither did Romney, their careers are over.

Luckily for them they have so much money they probably don't care.

Typical politicians and IMO no longer term than 8 years should be allowed in the Senate nor Congress.

No life terms after getting re-elected as no longer terms should be allowed than 2 terms like the Presidency! JMO!

I have never been a Cruz fan, now I actually dislike him.

What a stubborn, angry and foolish way to show his true spirit.

I never liked Cruz but you have to admit he does have what very few other Republicans on the National stage have and that's a set of balls and is not cowering to Trump.

Ted Cruz virtually got booed off the stage. Trump knew one of two things would happen: Cruz would endorse him or reveal humself to be a jerk who's not a man of his word. In choosing the latter, Cruz blew any chance of getting the nomination in 2020. Even his own supporters were ticked about that, and said so to reporters on the convention floor. That's right. Should Trump win in November and decide to run for reelection, he wont have to worry about "Untrustworthy Ted" in 2020. Trump was the one who came out smelling like a rose here.

Enjoy the Democratic Convention, with its vile hag and clown car of anti-police speakers.

Interesting, Trump doesn't hold a grudge but Ted Cruz does. Trump appears more flexible and fair. It hurt Ted Cruz and made Trump look like the better man.
