“We’ve suspended the campaign because I can see no viable path to victory”.

Trump last week won IN, where Cruz had made a last stand, with 53.3 percent of the votes, compared to Cruz’s 36.6 percent. “My assumption is that will not happen”, Cruz told conservative talk show host Glenn Beck, hours before voters in West Virginia and Nebraska head to the polls. “I will continue to press in the Senate the very same things I pressed for on the campaign trail”, Cruz said.
Cruz would not endorse Trump when Beck asked him about the NY businessman.
We will also mention the moment when Trump called Heidi Cruz unattractive or when he accused Ted Cruz’s father of being involved n the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
“Let’s be clear, we’re not going to win Nebraska”, he said. He said he expected to lose Nebraska but he repeated that he would restart the campaign if he saw a path to winning the nomination. Cruz on Tuesday blamed media executives and their primary coverage for the rise of Trump. Trump had won 1,068 delegates, with 1,237 needed for the nomination. “By suspending his campaign and then trying to jump back in before the convention, I think it damages his brand”.
Heidi Cruz took time off from her career at Goldman Sachs to tour around the country with her objectively repugnant husband on his quixotic quest to be the GOP nominee for president, so you’ll have to forgive her if she’s a bit out of sorts now that her husband has been roundly defeated by a venal, fact-allergic democrat.
She emphasized that Ted Cruz returns to the Senate with an “enormous agenda”, per Svitek, and said the work continues.
“We are about to see that same ferocious fury now turn against Donald” in favor of likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, Cruz said. “I would note, it’s not a choice we as voters have to make today”.
