Trump also assailed Cruz for his comments to a group of Texas delegates, including the assertion that the senator would not roll over “like a servile puppy dog” to endorse a person who insulted his wife and father.

Less than 12 hours after a scripted, 75-minute address to the Republican National Convention, Donald Trump was back to his old tricks – unscripted and rehashing old battles from the primaries.
Instead of breaking out new material, Trump chose to play some of his greatest hits.
Alternate Delegate Christine Turpin from District 17, her respect for Cruz went up after he didn’t endorse Trump. “And I will say what I think he should have done is what you said”.
When host Simon Conway said on Iowa’s 1040 World Health Organization radio that Cruz should have honored his pledge to support the Republican nominee and said he was voting for Trump, King agreed.
“I guarantee American voters took notice”, Palin said, “and felt more unsettling confirmation as to why we don’t much like typical politicians because they campaign one way, but act out another way”.
“Ted’s speech was awesome”, Minor said Thursday.
During Trump’s one-hour-and-15-minute speech, which included promises to clamp down on illegal immigration and referenced the 2015 shooting in Chattanooga as evidence the country isn’t as safe as before, Terry Roland rarely Saturday Shouting “Amen!” and fist-bumping with the delegates around him, Roland heard exactly the message he’d traveled more than 700 miles to take in. “Honestly, he may have ruined his political career”, Trump said. I don’t see him winning anyway frankly. I think it was GQ, right?
“Sometimes you go into convention towns and it’s hard to get around”.
The picture was released in Utah, not a place where “you want to necessarily send a risque picture”, devoid of any indication it was from GQ, he continued.
Cruz told the audience on Wednesday to “Stand and speak and vote your conscience”, garnering boos for his refusal to endorse the party’s nominee.
“I think it was very poor form by her”, delegate Eric Minor said. Although he’s got good intellect, but he doesn’t know how to use it. Remember a few months ago when Trump suggested that Cruz’s father was complicit in the assassination of John F. Kennedy because of a blurry photo in a tabloid magazine?

Richardson Williams said Cruz missed an opportunity. “I mean, the whole thing is ridiculous”. “I think we’ve got some issues”, said Richardson Williams, originally a Jeb Bush supporter who eventually became an alternate at the convention for Trump.
