Ted Cruz loudly booed by NOT endorsing Donald Trump
Ted Cruz destroyed his reputation with many Republicans by using the stage at the RNC for his own purposes.
Cruz told delegates and voters to “vote your conscience” in November and never specifically said that people should cast their ballots for the Republican nominee. During the course of his speech, Cruz only mentioned Trump once, to congratulate him on getting the nomination.
“To those listening, please, don’t stay home in November. If you love our country, and love your children as much as I know you do, stand, and speak, and vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution,” Cruz said.
As he continued speaking, and the crowd began to realize that an endorsement seemed less likely, the cheers that marked the early part of the speech became boos.

We all know Ted Cruz is about as slimy as you can get, but like I’ve seen mentioned multiple times on Twitter… Trump made fun of his wife and claimed his dad helped assassinate JFK, not really a convincing argument for an endorsement.

Didn’t roll over like Carson and Christie after he insulted them, I’ll give him that.
whatthe46 July 20th, 2016 at 23:05
if he would have, that wife of his would have had every reason to bitch slap his ass. hell, she should be doing that every time she sees him.

Cruz will probably write his own name in for prez. No way he will vote for Hillary!
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 10:56
Cruz will vote for Hillary so he can have someone to Bad Mouth without getting Booed by the Republicans when he tries to become the Republican Savior in 2020. .

Cruz is one of the most loathed people in government.
And, today, we saw why.
whatthe46 July 20th, 2016 at 23:03
i didn’t see it, but, i don’t doubt it.
Suzanne McFly July 20th, 2016 at 23:56
You didn’t miss much, cruz just rambled on about how bad President Obama was and then said God bless and walked off stage as the audience booed because he didn’t anoint the head moron.
whatthe46 July 21st, 2016 at 00:15
hehehehehe! well, it’s the head morons fault for letting cruzy speak. i thought the tRump was smart, why didn’t he see this coming?
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 10:54
He didn’t see it coming because his Yellow Hair slid down and got in the way of his vision.
fahvel July 21st, 2016 at 01:33
why?

(R-Calgary) Ted Cruz couldn’t even make VP.
VP nominee Pence’s fabrications are well documented. http://www.politifact.com/personalities/mike-pence/
All of Pence’s statements http://www.politifact.com/personalities/mike-pence/statements/
Suzanne McFly July 20th, 2016 at 23:53
I can’t believe anyone was ignorant enough to believe he would endorse rump. I seen talking heads on the TV who said they read his speech before he gave it, and they knew he wouldn’t endorse rump. Who on the rump campaign thought having cruz on the stage was a good idea? It is like as if they are doing everything wrong and winning, all I can think of is WTF? I don’t know why I am so shocked, but the are doing everything wrong!!!!!!!! I just heard rumps plane buzzed a cruz rally earlier today, again….WTF?
whatthe46 July 21st, 2016 at 02:20
well, i’m happy about the stupidity. keep ’em coming.
Suzanne McFly July 21st, 2016 at 13:18
Well it’s not like this party has the ability to do something brilliant lol.
The Original Just Me July 22nd, 2016 at 13:09
Oh, you like Stupidity ? You would Love Me. :+)
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 10:51
They were desperate to get Any Republican to speak at the Republican Stupidity Confusion of 2016.
Suzanne McFly July 21st, 2016 at 13:21
Yeah I figured that when you see half of the speakers have “trump” as their last name.
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 13:32
Can you even imagine a Spoiled Rotten 22 year old, drunken, Air Head being a Major speaker at a National Party Convention ?
Suzanne McFly July 21st, 2016 at 18:13
Well good thing I don’t have to imagine it, I can just watch the RNC.
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 22:38
It really kills me that for three years the Right Wing Nut Jobs have been Blasting Pres. Obama for using a teleprompter. Now they are not just asking Trump to use one they are demanding that HE use one. I guess they don’t want the people to hear anymore of what HE has to say.
Suzanne McFly July 21st, 2016 at 22:58
They like using the dog whistles, it is hard to explain yourself when you are a political party full of racist, sexist, bigots and you let the idiot leader of your party announce that every time he speaks. That leaves little chance of expanding your constituency, most of us don’t want to be hated by the ones who create our laws.
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 23:04
The ninety days leading up to Nov. are going o be interesting AND entertaining.
Suzanne McFly July 22nd, 2016 at 11:22
I am actually excited about the debates, I can’t believe I am saying that lol.
The Original Just Me July 22nd, 2016 at 13:09
Oh, I like Girls that get Excited. :+) Yes, I do believe the Debates are going to be interestingly One Sided. On the Intellectual Level anyway.
Suzanne McFly July 24th, 2016 at 18:18
I love seeing a bully having his words smacked out of him.
The Original Just Me July 24th, 2016 at 18:54
I do hope she wears one of her traditional Pants Suits because she is going to be raising her leg a lot while she is kicking his Butt all over the stage. :+)
Suzanne McFly July 24th, 2016 at 19:04
I bet he is one of the guys who makes fun of her wearing pants, those types think women should live in skirts.
The Original Just Me July 24th, 2016 at 19:10
Well, I,myself, like women in dresses and skirts, Short skirts, Real Short Skirts. :+) But pants are practical and nice jeans are NICE. It is up to the Lady.
Suzanne McFly July 24th, 2016 at 20:01
Your last sentence is the perfect reply.
The Original Just Me July 25th, 2016 at 00:17
I know, I’m Perfect but let’s keep that just between us. :+) I don’t want to get myself nailed to any Cross.
Suzanne McFly July 25th, 2016 at 10:23
You would be erected in every church across the land and you would be proudly hung around every Catholics neck, whats so wrong with that? lol
The Original Just Me July 26th, 2016 at 09:41
Two things wrong with that. One, I would be DEAD. Second, I would be nailed down. I want to be cremated so the wind can carry my ashes everywhere. I love to travel and site see.
Suzanne McFly July 26th, 2016 at 20:17
Yeah, the dead part would suck. I am getting cremated and my ashes will join my puppies ashes and put out to sea to feed the fishes, but not in a mob hit kind of way lol.
The Original Just Me July 27th, 2016 at 00:32
My wife’s ashes and Mine will be mixed together and scattered on a rock ledge above our home. Then let the wind take us where ever.
whatthe46 July 27th, 2016 at 00:34
that’s so beautiful!
The Original Just Me July 27th, 2016 at 00:49
I know I am. Wait a minute Whats you all lookin at ? :+) We made those plans long before her illness. Also, our son has to mix in a few sparkles and glitter for my wife. My urn will be a Folger’s coffee can original roast.
whatthe46 July 27th, 2016 at 00:53
great sense of humor. love ya!
The Original Just Me July 27th, 2016 at 01:00
Awe Garsh ! Ya got me all Flusterated. I need to drop in on dreamland for awhile. Later
Suzanne McFly July 27th, 2016 at 09:22
Sounds perfect.
fahvel July 21st, 2016 at 01:33
seems like krooz is right on this one.
Tommie July 21st, 2016 at 01:43
Nice job Cruz, even though you suck, but man you got this one right!
Gary Parillo July 21st, 2016 at 02:00
Cruz couldnt hear the booing.God was talking to him in one ear,and his inflated ego swelled the ear canal on the other side.
bpollen July 21st, 2016 at 03:11
Getting shunned on the Crazy Train will live in ignominy!
robert July 21st, 2016 at 04:57
Why endorse the fox news candidate. Wait what am I talking about Ted is pissed off HE isn’t that candidate
William July 21st, 2016 at 08:02
Save your Trump/Cruz memes. They can be recycled. Just like the presidential aspirations of this sanctimonious Canadian dip-wad.
The Original Just Me July 21st, 2016 at 10:47
What a Way to Run a Circus. After the Republican Stupidity Confusion of 2016, I hope the Democrats run a Convention. I would love to see all of the Democrat Speakers standing on the Stage, Hand in Hand, signing Kum Ba Yah. What a contrast that would be.
StoneyCurtisll July 21st, 2016 at 10:55
It’s being reported that Heidi Cruz had to be escorted off the convention floor because the mob of angry Trump supporters were yelling an shaking their fist at her…..(cause her husband did not endorse Lord Trump)
whatthe46 July 22nd, 2016 at 23:30
her own fault for being with an asshole. but, i’m more than certain she’s an ass too. everyone there that are repukes are asses.
StoneyCurtisll July 21st, 2016 at 11:06
All Ted did was embolden Trump fanatics…
There is noting than can turn them away now.
Trump could announce he is the Anti-Christ, and his support wouldn’t change.
whatthe46 July 22nd, 2016 at 23:29
well, they all are.

I’d boo him too, but based on moral principles and general “ick” factor.
Dammitjim July 21st, 2016 at 21:33
I’m certainly no Cruz fan, but I gotta give him credit for having some ‘nads.
whatthe46 July 22nd, 2016 at 23:28
is that the same size as a raisin?
William July 22nd, 2016 at 01:08
Still bitter huh Ted? Still sad that Donald has someone else picking up his dry cleaning?
rostee67 July 22nd, 2016 at 01:48
Typical republicans speaking about “Lucifer”, then look what happens and comes out of the darkness on the RNC stage. Non other than the republican red “The Evil Devil” = TED Cruz (R) from the red state of Texas, with the gaze like a rattle snake that could freeze the blood in your veins! Now you know why there is no GUNS or these type of republicans in… Heaven.
