Cruz supporters went one step to far, they can call politicians all the names they want.

We don't see Trump supporters continually demeaning Cruz; so that is what must be class.

Oh, yeah, Cruz is the conservative, Trump is the liberal, why was Cruz so buddy buddy with Trump for all of that time.
Coming back with something that you already posted up thread lacks originality. At least wait until tomorrow.

@L9teen

Trump and his spawn never mention the Constitution - I doubt they are familiar with it. They never mention anything about freedom - which was Cruz's main topic. They want power and to continue big government and use it to punish their enemies. Truly dangerous. I find it sickening how Trump supporters are so in love with his children and want them in positions of power.

Cruz booed offstage after talking about the importance of principle. Eric Trump, who donated $10,000 to Schumer, followed him.

I bet you couldn't even hear any booing if you were anywhere near the Texas delegation.  Placement of the delegates was a arranged for this very reason.

I really used to think that Rush was genuine about conservatism.............. until he fell in love with a leftist.

I'll never listen to him again.

I was in the car today when he is on here. Actually TRIED to listen to him! Lasted about 10 minutes. Couldn't stand it anymore!

Talk radio is going to shiv Ted Cruz tomorrow to support a Hillary Clinton donor con man. It's beautiful.

The talk radio ass clowns will be screaming tomorrow, getting spittle all over their microphones. Can't wait to see how Shamnity and Douche react.

A brilliant speech by the man that I am proud to call "my Senator".  He pretty much delivered the speech that I had hoped he would deliver.

Thank you Senator Cruz, I will be glad to vote for you again in two years... wherever on the ballot that I find your name!   :laugh:

The Constitution Party sounds good to me. The Republican Party is over- Uniparty reigns.

Did anyone else get the robocall from Cruz saying that he would be speaking tonight and that, tomorrow, a representative will reach out to them?

I'm sure it's going to be to beg for funding for his Senate campaign, but I'm inclined to give after tonight's performance.

Cruz gave a great soaring speech. Not endorsing Trump was him standing on principle. He's literally the most compelling political figure on either side.

Maybe this is 1976?

Well said!  :amen:

I think Sen Cruz runs again in 2020 no matter who wins in 2016. I will always support the person who will stand for specific principles even when all his peers want him to ignore them.

Sources say that brilliant speech was "classless?"

Did it not have enough brass and gold plastered all over everything to denote "class?"

To those that say Cruz's speech was classless, crass is king.  So class would be a foreign concept and indiscernible to them.

Like the MSM only reporting that Cruz was booed, as if that was all there was to his speech.  They neglect the almost unanimous standing ovation he received.  They lie, as usual...so screw em.

Eh? I heard Cruz's entire speech. Best speech I've heard from a politician in ages. He did not endorse Trump in any way.

I think you took my first sentence, without the last paragraph.

Ted laid out party unity at first , with a clear laying out of what that meant as policy.  And yes...Ted drew a clear line in the sand... what it would take to have us vote trump.

Brilliant... not since Marcus Antony defeated Brutus in the square has a speech so resounded so. This time tho ... both logic and reason are sided as one.

Oh really??

Here's just a few comments about Cruz from the Trump Safe Space Convention Thread:

F**K!NG A$$#OLE!

Cruz is a flim-flam man - only in it for himself. 

Cruz pissed off the crowd..... **nononono*

And killed his future political career, assho^^  :chairbang:

And of course Twitter and other fora out there have much worse to offer, such as this gem from TOS:

I hope Cruz is dead before 2020.
