Trump and RNC chair met with him a few weeks ago in DC in a private meeting trying to get Cruz to speak. He agreed, with no endorsement. Trump had previously stated that Cruz and Kasich would be required to endorse to speak. Who won that deal? You guys are viewing this wrong. Cruz thinks Trump is in for a beating in November. You can be as cynical as you want, but this was certainly intentional. Newt was doing damage control, not hitting Cruz. | ||

As if he is trying to avoid association with his own running mate. Also Cruz was lol. That combined with things like most big party members not showing, the campaign attacking Kasich in his own state, and the massive backlash we saw during the floor votes (most votes against a canidates at his own convention in modern history someone said?) reminds us that party unity for the right is a myth this year, despite Trump's best efforts. | ||
