Ted Cruz, Obama, and the RNC convention
“Class is an aura of confidence that is being sure without being cocky. Class has nothing to do with money. Class never runs scared. It is self-discipline and self-knowledge. It’s the sure-footedness that comes with having proved you can meet life.” —Ann Landers
Ted Cruz Flies on Air Force One with Obama
Sen. Cruz refused to endorse Donald Trump, but spent hours in a plane with those working to destroy America from the inside out? Potentially troubling implications to be sure…Why would Ted Cruz spend hours in Air Force One with the Obama’s and Iranian Muslim, Valerie Jarrett?
The junior senator from Texas was invited to fly down to Dallas aboard Air Force One and he accepted the invitation to the Dallas Police Memorial, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Three Democratic lawmakers also were aboard: House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi; Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson of Dallas, whose district includes downtown; and Rep. Marc Veasey of Fort Worth, whose district includes parts of Dallas. They landed at 12:15 p.m., and Cruz walked down the front stairs a moment after the first couple, just behind Jarrett.
The Senator also made sure he got a picture of himself next to the Seal on Air Force One.
Rumor has it, that Cruz didn’t exactly cultivate a lot of friends in Congress. Former Speaker of the House John Boehner called Cruz “Lucifer in the flesh.” Boehner didn’t stop there, according to the Hill. “I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone,” he said. “But I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.”
Anyway, a ride on Air Force One is nothing to sneeze at. Let’s hope Cruz enjoyed it, because it could make him even less popular than he already is. During that plane ride, Obama must have made him an offer he could not refuse, because his speech at the Convention showed total lack of class.
Trump’s Plane Interrupts Cruz Speech
When Cruz was addressing delegates in Cleveland during the day of his speech at the Convention, Donald Trump’s plane flew in and interrupted the speech. Obviously Cruz wasn’t too happy about it, but it was rather humorous. Watch the short video.
Ted’s Lack of Class at RNC Convention
Donald Trump offered Ted Cruz an olive branch and a prime time opportunity to speak at the Convention. Cruz showed his true colors.
Kasich, Bush, and Cruz are not endorsing the RNC nominee. They would rather open the door to a Hillary Clinton win, not only because of their globalist agendas, but because they are so self-aggrandizing, that they don’t care one whit about the country and our children’s futures. Their interests are all in their own self-promotion.
At the close of Ted’s selfish speech on Wednesday night, the Convention delegates were chanting, “ENDORSE TRUMP! ENDORSE TRUMP! ENDORSE TRUMP!” Then came the loud BOOS! Cruz did not endorse Donald J. Trump, and his speech went over like a lead balloon.
Here is a video of the full speech, at 18:52 he states, “We deserve leaders who stand for principles, who unite us all behind shared values, who cast aside anger for love.” (Really Teddy? You aren’t casting aside anger for love. You’re actually so full of bitterness that it spews from you like a broken water pipe.)
He continued, “If you love our country, and love your children as much as I know that you do, stand and speak and vote your conscience.” He continued and said we needed candidates faithful to the Constitution.
(ENDORSE TRUMP was repeated over and over again, because the delegates knew what ‘vote your conscience’ meant. If Cruz was actually faithful to the Constitution, he wouldn’t even have run for the office of Senate, much less President of the US.)
Then Ted says, “I appreciate the enthusiasm of the NY delegation.”
Wait the hell a minute Ted, it was the entire 50 states of delegates screaming, “ENDORSE TRUMP!!!!!!!”
“We will unite the party, we will unite the party, by standing together for shared values, by standing for liberty. At this point, we see Trump standing in the audience and clapping.
(Really Ted? You certainly are not uniting the party; you’re trying your best to divide it.)
There was no endorsement by Cruz of the Republican nominee, Donald J. Trump. The entire audience booed as he left the stage.
Heidi Cruz left the Convention during Cruz’s speech to the shouts and jeers of “Goldman Sachs!” She was escorted out by security.
Trump Knew About Speech Changes
There were reports that Cruz went to a cocktail party, hosted by Donald Trump, before the convention cranked up, and he started breaking glasses before he left! So, he was angry and bitter prior to stepping on the stage.
The speech Cruz turned into the RNC was approved, but two hours before his speech, he decided to change it. Trump left it alone. He certainly couldn’t pull Cruz’s time slot at this point, so he gave him the rope, and Cruz used it to hang himself. The day after the Convention, Trump thanked his volunteers and mentioned Cruz’s speech.
The Fallout was Huge
Matt Drudge tweeted, “Cruz condemned to Republican hell.”
Sheldon Adelson had invited Cruz up to his suite after the speech. However, after Cruz’s speech, Adelson rescinded the invitation and blocked Cruz at the door. Cruz was stopped at the door by several attendees inside the suite who were furious with his decision to not endorse Trump. An aide to Adelson then confirmed that Cruz was turned away. Senators inside the suite stated that Cruz was not welcome in the suite. One senator said, “because he’s a piece of sh*t.”
Mike Huckabee posted several comments on his Facebook page,
Ted Cruz chose to not keep his word that he (along with me and every other GOP candidate) gave one year ago in that very arena where tonight he put his own ambitions above country.
Donald Trump did something no previous nominee has done—he allowed Ted Cruz to speak without his promising to support the nominee. I’ve spoken at every convention since 1992, and I can attest to the fact that no one got near that stage without supporting the nominee. Trump trusted Ted and was rewarded with a betrayal, but the delegates in that arena booed Cruz off the stage and out of Cleveland.
Ted Cruz walked in tall, and walked out small.
One delegate said, “Cruz is an embarrassment to the country. I almost threw up–I am just furious at the way Cruz handled himself. He is a self-absorbed, high and mighty, entitled, “religious” piece of sh*t.”
Reports from Convention delegates state that Ted and Heidi were booed when seen entering their hotel suite, and the next morning, Mr. Cruz was booed by members of the Texas delegation at a breakfast.
The Latest Bomb Against Cruz

Rick Perry and conservatives are outraged at Ted, who has done nothing in the Senate aside from advancing his failed Presidential campaign. He continued that anyone who does not want to sign on to help Trump is helping presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s race for the White House.
“You’re putting someone who’s going to be Ginsburg’s clone on the Supreme Court,” Perry said. “Go explain that to your conservative friends.”
Top Donors Slam Cruz
Hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer and his daughter, Rebekah, issued a rare public statement, slamming Cruz, who suggested during his convention appearance that Republicans “vote their conscience.” Mercer had donated $13 million to the Cruz PAC.
In a statement, the Mercers said:
Last summer and again this year, Senator Ted Cruz pledged to support the candidacy of the nominee of the Republican Party whomever that nominee might be. We are profoundly disappointed that on Wednesday night he chose to disregard this pledge.
The Democratic Party will soon choose as their nominee a candidate who would repeal both the First and Second Amendments of the Bill of Rights, a nominee who would remake the Supreme Court in her own image. We need “all hands on deck” to ensure that Mr. Trump prevails. Unfortunately, Senator Cruz has chosen to remain in his bunk below, a decision both regrettable and revealing.
The Bitter and Divisive Ted Cruz
Ted Cruz’s Facebook page is telling people how many states allow write-in candidates and that they can write in his name. In doing so, he is urging his supporters to vote for him, thus taking votes from Trump. This very well could lead to a Hillary Clinton win in the electoral college. He has since changed the page, but a portion is still available at the above link. There are literally dozens of pages urging Ted Cruz as a write-in candidate.
Trump gave Cruz the opportunity to show what the “Good Christian” was truly made of, and we certainly found out.
Cruz carries a Bible in one hand claiming he’s a devout believer, but in the other hand, he carries a knife, always ready to use it on his perceived enemies.
He rose to the top, but now has thrown his reputation down the drain. Remember the old saying that cream rises to the top. Well, it does. I remember my grandmother putting the pasteurized milk in her refrigerator. Once it cooled, the cream was poured off the top. However, on the very top of the cream was scum. That scum was scrapped off and went down the drain as useless.
Proverbs 16:18 says it best, “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”
We have our Presidential nominee, and it is Donald J. Trump!
