Not as good, but better late than never.

I love this one. : D

Well I now have more respect for Cruz than I have for my own Governor. Kasich is around my age and we grew up at a time when a mans word meant everything. A handshake was as good as a written contract.

It was very disappointing for Kasich to take an oath to support whoever the candidate was, and then backed down after he lost. I could cut Cruz some slack because he is a little younger and didn't grow up with those standards. But Kasich? No excuse at all.

In a dramatic reversal from his controversial non-endorsement at the Republican convention in July, Texas Senator Ted Cruz firmly backed Donald Trump's bid for the White House on Friday.

"A year ago, I pledged to endorse the Republican nominee, and I am honoring that commitment. And if you don’t want to see a Hillary Clinton presidency, I encourage you to vote for him," he said in a message posted to Facebook.

In response, Trump put out a warm statement saying he was "greatly honored by the endorsement" by "a tough and brilliant opponent."


The issue has weighed heavily on Cruz, 45, who faces re-election to the Senate in 2018 and has kept the door open to running for president again. Gallup tracking surveys found that Cruz's net favorable rating among Republicans fell by a jarring 35 percentage points in the weeks after the convention, dipping into negative territory.

Cruz's show of support came days after Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus suggested he may block Republicans who don't back Trump from running for the party's nomination again. It also followed news of Heidi Cruz, his wife, rejoining Goldman Sachs in the Houston office. She took an unpaid leave last year to aid her husband's campaign.

Cruz listed several reasons for reversing his stance on Trump, most importantly citing the future shape of the Supreme Court. Earlier Friday, Trump released an expanded list of potential justices he would consider naming to the high court, including Cruz's best friend in the Senate, Republican Mike Lee of Utah.

Cruz noted that Trump said he would only consider filling court openings with names on his list and said that commitment "provides a serious reason for voters to choose to support Trump."

The Texas Republican also listed Obamacare, energy and internet freedom as other areas where Trump was preferable to Clinton.

"Donald Trump is the only thing standing in her way," he wrote.

Cruz, in Reversal, Issues Endorsement of Trump for President

I'm glad Cruz finally came to his senses.

I bet he caught holy hell from the republicans in Fla. Good. But he was only did what would help himself. That's what a cockroach he is.

I don't think I care or care for what Ted Cruz says, does or thinks. About the only thing I liked about him is that he's somewhat more predictable than is Trump.

I don't think I care what you think or care about. The only thing I like about you is . . is. . . is. . . .

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

And what constituency is this supposed to add to Trump?

Die hard Cruz supporters.

You think his approval rating will go up now?

He's a very unlikable guy with a whiney voice, a face that begs to be punched and baby teeth that pop out every time he makes a point in a speech.

I'm not surprised it's taken him this long to realize Trump is going to win.

Well, if that's the case, you should have noted in your OP something to the effect of "320 Years of History need not reply." I would have happily obliged such a request.

Cruz panicked because he realized that if Trump lost, he'd get part of the blame,

and if Trump wins, Cruz would be a pariah.

Ted Cruz endorses Donald Trump

Cruz, thinking Trump may well lose to Clinton, is positioning himself with Trump supporters for a 2020 run.

If Trump wins, Cruz gets a cabinet position of his choice.

It's too early in the day to be drunk, Jake.

All you liberals say president Trump!

If it does not happen what will be your excuse?

Can't blame Ted Cruz, so you better find someone soon!

 

[320 Years of History]

• If Ted is such a liar, why should anyone who believed Trump's assertion to that effect care what Ted says, by implication shown in his voting choice, about whom is the better candidate?

 

[OKTexas]

Or, put another way,

Roll over and play dead.

How did people get THIS dumb and come to hate their own country THIS much?

Projecting again there nutty, no one could love this country and want the hildabitch and bubba back in the WH.
