Trump said the day after the Republican convention that Cruz “never denied” his father was pictured with Oswald before Kennedy’s assassination.

“To those listening, please, don’t stay home in November”, Cruz said.
But during Wednesday night’s convention speech, Cruz only congratulated Trump and told delegates to vote their conscience.
These are not exactly ringing endorsements, and they come from two people it’s hard to fairly characterize as facial recognition experts.
He complimented Heidi Cruz on Friday even as he continued to attack her husband. “This was a magazine that, in many respects, should be well-respected”, Trump said.
“Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson told Cruz to get behind Trump during an appearance on “Fox & Friends” Thursday morning. The mogul has broken with decades of Republican orthodoxy on taxes (he’s willing to raise some), foreign policy (he’s neo-isolationist), and social issues (Trump doesn’t have deeply-held opposition to either abortion or gay rights).
It was noteworthy, because one of the main objectives of presidential nominating conventions is party unity.
The development followed a campaign that featured charges and counter-charges between Trump and Cruz, who began the race on friendly terms and kind words.
“It was very very poor taste for him not to do it”, Inhofe said. I’ve always said, “Why didn’t the National Enquirer get the Pulitzer Prize for Edwards, and OJ Simpson, and all of these things?” “I am not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father”. “He just enjoys a level of arrogance that outweighs his ability to become president”.
At a televised speech Friday, and less than 24 hours after Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination for president, the reality television personality breathed new life into a conspiracy theory that Texas Republican Sen. But Cruz had other plans.
He left former presidential candidate and House Speaker Newt Gingrich, following a few rungs later in the lineup, with the cleanup.
Palin wasn’t the only one who said Cruz had destroyed his political career with the speech. “If they’d have just sat there and let that happen-there’s damage done to the Trump campaign and to Cruz”.
