Ted Cruz defended his decision not to endorse Donald Trump after the real estate mogul’s attacks on his family during the primary. He added, “That pledge [to endorse the Republican Nominee] was not a blanket commitment.
[During the primary campaign, Trump retweeted an unflattering photo of
Heidi Cruz along with one of his ex-model wife, Melania Trump, writing,
“A picture is worth a thousand words.” Trump at one point insinuated
that Rafael Cruz, Ted Cruz’s father, was a conspirator in President John
Kennedy’s assassination.]
The boos began during Cruz’s speech to the RNC after it became clear he would not be endorsing Trump as the party’s nominee. Cruz also received a hostile reception from some Texas delegation. One held a sign that read “Cruz-Clinton,” and others broke into chants of “Trump! Trump! Trump!”
Cruz called it “troubling” that he was booed.
“What I wanted to do is lay out the principles I believe we
stand for as Republicans,” he went on to say. Cruz vowed that he would not to say anything negative about Trump.
Ted is for Ted ..... He had a choice. He could stay home, attend and not speak, or speak and not waste our time. Just a thought.
