Ted Cruz Endorses Donald Trump for President
By Michelle Moons Breitbart News September 23, 2016
Sen. Ted Cruz has endorsed Republican nominee Donald Trump for President four months after dropping out of the race for president, returning to his work in the U.S. Senate, and beginning to campaign for re-election in 2018.
A statement from Cruz read:
This election is unlike any other in our nation’s history. Like many other voters, I have struggled to determine the right course of action in this general election.In Cleveland, I urged voters, “please, don’t stay home in November. Stand, and speak, and vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket whom you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution.”After many months of careful consideration, of prayer and searching my own conscience, I have decided that on Election Day, I will vote for the Republican nominee, Donald Trump.I’ve made this decision for two reasons. First, last year, I promised to support the Republican nominee. And I intend to keep my word. Plus it looks like he will win and I don't want to further damage my political viability.
Second, even though I have had areas of significant disagreement with our nominee, by any measure Hillary Clinton is wholly unacceptable — that’s why I have always been #NeverHillary. So I can never endorse her. Remember a rat never joins a sinking ship.
