Tensions and anticipation were at their peak on the fourth and final night of the 2016 Republican National Convention – after debacles, flubs and mixed messages that started this year’s conservative celebration.
Men, women and children viciously mowed down. The surprise is not that Donald Trump has embraced their ideas (that has been true for a year) but that the Republican Party, for all intents and purposes, has followed suit. They are issues usually touted by Democrats.
Trump first suggested that Cruz’s father was involved in the assassination the day of the in primary, citing the tabloid’s piece.

“I think (she’s) the best thing he’s got going and his kids if you want to know the truth.” he continued during the almost 15-minute ramble about Cruz. “No one is more poised and articulate than my sister”.
