Go back to your closed speech thread. You come here and spread hate. You show a picture of Trump and Cruz. They met ONE time at the very beginning of the political season, and that was it. You say they were friends forever. That is a lie. The truth is not in you.

Everyone here should put this hater Trump suck up on IGNORE.

The problem with putting trolls on Ignore is.....it kinda kills the point and laugh factor. And I do so enjoy watching their desperation, vitriol and drool. As long as none of the froth gets on me.

Yes, that is right after Cruz finished. The Trump family was none too happy. Such a shame, after flying their jet in during Cruz's event this afternoon, and then making their entrance while Cruz was still speaking. They have absolutely no class.

No Class, Orange Trash

Trump supporters were threatening Heidi Cruz, to the point she needed protection leaving.

Ken Cuccinelli told Reuters he escorted Cruz's wife Heidi off convention floor of the Convention in Cleveland out of concern for her safety.

Wow. Check out the look on Trump Jr's face there. If looks could kill. Looks positively evil. Anti-Christ in training/in the making, perhaps? And he's got that same arrogant, upturned Obama chin pose. Hmmm.....

The chance of Trump spouting off a petulant retort to Cruz tomorrow night is now approximately 1200%. He won't be able to restrain himself.

Heidi Cruz rushed out by security after crowd turns on Ted Cruz

Heidi Cruz, wife of Texas Senator Ted Cruz, was reportedly rushed out of the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night after the crowd turned on her husband at the end of his speech.

Boos rained down on Ted Cruz as he issued a speech calling for people to vote on their "conscience" and declining to officially endorse Donald Trump, despite loud calls for him to do so from the crowd.

A reporter for the Richmond Times-Dispatch quickly posted a video purportedly of Heidi Cruz being escorted out of the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, where the convention is being held.

With her is Ken Cuccinelli, the former attorney general of Virginia, who has also been firmly anti-Trump.

Cuccinelli reportedly confirmed to journalists that he helped Heidi Cruz leave the scene after the speech out of concern for her safety.

Other reporters at the convention also said that they saw Heidi Cruz being ushered out amid heckling from the crowd.

Heidi Cruz had been a target of Trump's, including a retweet of a meme that insulted her appearance.

I ignore them the old fashioned way.

I talk around them and don't acknowledge them.

Its satisfying to me.

What you all just witnessed was the courage of a statesman who dared to focus on ideas and principles, and not on personality. Moreover, he did so in defiance of a crowd that he had reason to know would turn hostile upon his refusal to finally bend a knee before their prince, who himself could not restrain the impulse to upstage a defeated rival who would not pay him tribute.

And you know that's gonna bug him to no end. Expect a vile tweet. Maybe another insult or two directed at Cruz's family. NOBODY disrespects The Donald!

_{*ipso facto is a phrase from Latin which means "by that very fact or act".}

And that is who we should want as a leader, not a small minded brute with no control over himself.

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.

Rush used to take a run at the difficult issues during the Clinton Administration, but he'd stop short of the real meat. A poke, but not even a flesh wound. After noticing a few rounds of that jousting, I just relegated him to entertainment, and not so much a serious warrior for Conservatism.
I haven't had any reason to change that assessment, I am sorry to say.

Grow up man! Trump dishonored Cruz's family and that is a kind way to say it. Cruz did the honorable thing!

The cultural divide has been exposed. Trumpeters can not understand that Trump made it impossible for Cruz to give an endorsement. They were raised differently from the rest of us. I voted for Kasich but gladly would have supported Cruz. He is a decent man and he deserved much better than he was given.

Ted Cruz did endorse trump.

Ted laid out what a Conservative will fight for... now lets see if Trump can live up to the endorsement. And that folks.. is the masterstroke.
It is all upon trump.... to gain the endorsement Ted gave.

Ted dared Trump to fight for the constitution.

If Trump does , vote Trump. Dont stay home.

Vote UP and down the ticket.....

The brilliance is in the ambiguity.
