Cruz was not welcome in the suite “because he’s a piece of sh*t,” the Senator said.

It didn't realize how much of a libtard chum was. He's obsessed.

I'm not giving up hope. Also, things could still get very ugly even if Trump reaches 1237. And that's ultimately what brokered convention fans like me want to see.

Most conventions are boring. This one is insane and amazing.

I mean,

Quote

Cruz is literally drowned out by boos and Trump chants. "Stop talking, go home, go home to Texas!"

Quote

Ken Cuccinelli, president of the Senate Conservatives Fund, escorted Cruz's wife, Heidi Cruz, out of the room, telling ABC News that Trump supporters were approaching her confrontationally and the atmosphere had become too "volatile."

Quote

Sources with the RNC say @Tedcruz speech was 'classless.'

Quote

Sources also told CNN’s Dana Bash that a state Republican Party chair reacted to Cruz so angrily after the speech that he had to be physically restrained.

Quote

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie shared similar sentiments, telling Bash, "It was an awful, selfish speech."

I'm pretty sure none of you actually watched Ted's speech. Let me explain how this works: the media is focusing on the boorish behavior of some pro-Trump delegates who were unhappy that Ted didn't give an explicit endorsement, which is fits the media playbook of focusing on any "controversy" to distract from the substance of the speeches and thereby minimize Trump's convention bounce. By contrast, the coverage of the DNC will be a love fest to maximize Hillary's bounce (to the extent a dead fish dropped from a window bounces). The overwhelmingly liberal journobloc puts their thumbs on the scales every election. The impact is hard to quantify, but it is very much real.

I would encourage you to broaden your horizons and actually watch the speech. It was amazing from start to finish. He was gracious to Trump, congratulating him on winning the nomination, and spoke passionately about conservative principles - chiefly among them freedom and the rule of law.

You don't think Cruz getting booed at the convention, not being allowed in a big donor's suite, changing his speech from what he gave the RNC brass, and RNC brass needing to be restrained as a news story? Weird, his constituents that grilled him this morning certainly thought it was.

LOL. The media made the monster that is Trump. Suddenly they're conspiring against him?

A lot of claimed moderates on this board, seem to get a really good chuckle at the GOP's expense 24/7, but remain silent on the other side. I don't think many of you are as moderate as you think.

Dickstone and Mocat are the main characters. I've always thought you were lib for some reason. SD from time to time. I just don't see a lot of bumping of the threads, on the other side of the line.
