The story as I understand it, is that Donald Jr. gave a better more motivating speech than Ted Cruz.

CRUZ BLEW IT.It was all show boating for himself.He didnt stand behind his party although he did blast Hillary.I wasnt suprised by this as he was found to be a real snake in the primaries. |

Full Disclosure...I voted Cruz in the primary here...but I wasn't excited about him then either. Just was too leery of Trump at the time.
Last night...he was a total lunchbox. His ego wouldn't let him do the right thing for the party. He is just looking towards his next chance to run...but I'll dang sure not vote for him again. He is as slimy as they come. And I laughed as he got booed. He's no second coming of Reagan...despite what he tells himself in the mirror every morning. |

| Cruz signed his pledge of support and then pulled that circus stunt. He's done. It's over for him. |

Location: Displaced Iowegian | RidenFly - 2016-07-21 7:51 AM Cruz signed his pledge of support and then pulled that circus stunt. He's done. It's over for him. I find this kind of post humorous......they all signed a pact BECAUSE Trump bullied them into it....he threatened an "Independent run" IF the Republican party didn't treat him nicely....he is just as much a "slime-ball" as any of them....I respect Cruz for standing behind his convictions of the constitution and just because he didn't say the word "endorse", he pulled a "circus stunt".....how many has Trump pulled.....
I certainly don't "endorse" Trump but will be forced to vote for him....... IMO, this is the worst choice of candidates in many, many, many years (I AM old)

Location: The Great Northwest | ThreeCorners - 2016-07-20 9:16 PM Cruz and Pence both gave a tremendous speech tonight!! Trump has a tall order to fill. I pray he can deliver, a strong, classy, Presidential speech. His speech, will make or break him. If he flops, people will flock to a third candidate. If he can deliver, and deliver big, I believe he will deliver our country back to us and will defeat Hillary. I am sooooo nervous. So much depends on this election and Hillary is very volnerable. However, Trump has got to be Presidential! He to, is very volnerable.
I'm with you! He needs to sound and be very presidential in todays speech of the change America needs to start.  |

Location: Pittsburg, Texas 75686 | I have always liked what Ted Cruz stood for but I did vote for TRUMP in primaries. First, we have to change directions, second, I want the wall, I want safety and a better country for all Americans, and most of all TRUMP cannot be bought. He owes noone.
Hillary is/has deeply hurt our middle class, our poor, and all of our minorities. Our black american citizens are be used for her to gain votes. She will only make all Americans poorer while she gets richer and sells us off to foreign countries. I will never get past what she did in Bengazie, she had a live feed and saw everything as it unraveled. She will destroy all of those that protect us, military, EMS, medical, and police. A vote for Killary is a vote for the death of America. |

Common Sense and then some
Location: So. California | The RNC convention has been anything but uneventful. Right from the start, there was the walk out and controversy. Melania's speech cleary had a few sentences plagiarized, where the heck were the speech writers/editors? Or, was it intentional to keep the RNC in the media, garning a LOT of attention?  After all, who can blame Melania, when she clearly didn't write the speech?!?
The trump children were fantastic and really shined! Don Jr. laid down the foundation for a future political career. They ALL made their father proud!!
Giuliani and Christy rocked it! Christy has earned a cabinet position with his long time endorsement of Trump and his rousing speech. Pence's speech was very good, solid and really stamped his personality as a strong conservative, steadfast in his convictions. His job is/was to bring in the base conservatives. I thought he succeeded on all fronts and really adds to to the ticket.
Cruz.... He should have declined speaking. I understand his belief to stand firm to his convictions, but his timing was WAY OFF.... Wrong place, wrong time, wrong setting, wrong everything. I think he misjudged his political stature, and has taken a huge hit to his political future. A very unwise move.
The RNC convention has been electric, unconventional, controversial, and has the media and others talking non stop. More people are watching/listening then otherwise would have. This is great for the party!
What will Trump say tonight? It won't be the conventional "I accept the nomination" speech. It is sure to have a few zingers, stunners and have the media falling all over themselves to discuss it tomorrow. Trump style of course! Thank God it's not politics as usual!!  |

Location: Kansas | I was, but always am, very proud of Newt Gingrich last night. He got to the heart of the matter with the trail of destruction Hillary Clinton has left behind her.
My list of what Hillary will promise at the DNC next week will be, as she has promised, open borders north and south, Syrian refugees coming into the U.S. by the tens of thousands, free tuition, $15 min wage for all, no end to Obamacrap, the 2nd Amendment out the window. She has endorsed Black Lives Matter (cop killers) because she doesn't want to lose a single black vote. At MSNBC they're enraged because Republicans are being to mean to Hillary......let's see how she treats her rival.

But he came off as a little kid that didn't get his way, so he will show us! At least you said although you wouldn't endorse him, but would vote for him. Cruz didn't even say that, which makes you wonder will he just write his own name in, which will be a vote for Hillary. That will show us! |
