"vote their conscience" presumes almost 14 million GOP voters and over 1500 GOP delegates did not vote their conscience when they rejected Cruz and voted for Trump. Its insulting to millions of Conservatives.

He didn't insult any real conservatives. A real conservative would not have voted for tRump in the first place. He was actually speaking to the more that 14 million GOP voters who did not support the Donald in the primaries. The ones with an actual conscience.

Never mind those 17 million Republican primary voters who did NOT vote for Trump, but for somebody else. Glad that Trump thinks that he won't need them in November.

Ted Cruz is looking smarter than ever today if you ask me!

Ahhhh. Just talking about you at post 15. And here you are. Yammering off-topic.

Look. If Trump can write us off - why can't you?

Uh you supported Cruz, means you have no clue what a conservative is. Conservatives rejected Cruz.

Simple fact, if you are still supporting Cruz after he proved what Trump has said about him, live on TV, there is nothing that can help fix that problem. If you will not vote for the GOP ticket to help your fellow Americans stop Hilary there is something broken that cannot be fixed by anything anybody says.

Ted Cruz tells people to vote up and down the ticket for the person who meets conservative values. Again, why would anyone who is a true conservative BOO this exhortation?

If Trump is a true conservative, then the simple thing to do is say to yourself "Yes, he is that man who meets the description."

The fact that this statement was BOOed is a huge tell as to what the Republican party has become.

What Trump said about Cruz is completely insane and retarded. The man and his supporters are ready for the nuthouse.

Conservatives are for freedom, limited government and adherence to the constitution. If that is so, why would one reject Cruz?

What part of the RNC was about unity? When they stomped on conservatives over and over? When they took delegate votes for other candidates and awarded them to Trump? When they are instructed to boo Ted Cruz?

There has been no attempt by the Trump Side to reach out or build bridges to conservatives, none.

The part about rolling over on conservatives! EVERY last one of them!

I know you love clinging on to that talking point but after watching Trump this am, it's clear that his campaign may be in meltdown mode. If this is a sign of were this campaign is going say hello to President Hillary

The primary is over. It's on to the general election and his first point if order after the convention was not to go after Hillary but Cruz. And this is what Trump will continue to do because that's his history. The general electorate doesn't occupy the same bubble you do.

If Cruz behaved the exact way as Trump has, I would be intellectually honest enough to call him out on it and question the direction of his campaign. Cruz isn't funning against Hillary. Trump is and the Progressive Nationalist/Populists can't use Cruz as a crutch all the time for Trump's " missteps"

I have never seen a campaign in such disarray. If Hillary wasn't so disliked this election would have already been over before it started in her favor but for the actual vote counting.

You can't just hope for
a calamity or a Hillary misstep to win

The epitome of non sequitur thinking.

After arguing with them this morning I was left incredulous and wondering if I was being trolled.

You are being trolled. We all are. Agitators like Mech will leave FR for just a moment - drop in on threads here to post their pukeage - and then will return to the safety and comfort of TOS.

Arguing with them is like giving medicine to a dead person! Just put them on ignore and maybe they will go away!

Trump was on full frontal display this morning as the vindictive amoral tyrant he is. What disaster 40% of the primary voters have brought on us.

Great to see Trump out on the trail after his huge bounce from the convention and attacking his opponent in the General election. Wait....what?!?! Donny isn't running agaibst Cruz for a Senate seat in TX but against Hitlary for President? Well......nevermind.

Trump is doing damage control with the future votes of women and Cruz voters. He views Cruz as actively using his temporary spotlight with the media to undermine Trump and so he came out to set the record straight. He now views Cruz as an active enemy.

Overkill by Trump in those personal attacks, Trump had basically won the nomination when he said those things.

Let's not forget, the two campaigned together, "My friend Donald".

Too bad, this thing went downhill.

But Ted Cruz campaigned with Trump, so that says enough for the "real conservatives", Ted must not be one.

Rick Perry, says it well, "If the RNC was about Unity, Cruz didn't get the memo".

Trump in his usual gracious manner has doubled down on unity today by dusting off the lying Ted memes and again suggesting that Cruz's father was involved in the killing of JFK.

Trump is going to do very well in washington if every little thing gets turned into a grudge match the only ones he can deal with out the Democrats. Like when he used to by politicians to get things done in NY.

“I was a businessman. I give to everybody. When they call, I give. And you know what? When I need something from them, two years later, three years later, I call them, and they are there for me.” Donald Trump 2016.

Perhaps Trump is upset he couldn't find Cruz's price.

It is very telling that Trump would view someone saying we should support the Consitution as a personal attack.

They weren't- they were dimocraps crossing over in the primaries and they will vote for Hiltery in the general. We have all been had by the NY liberal narcissist, Hillary's good friend.
