ANALYSIS/OPINION:
It seems like Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has determined where his conscience is leading him, and it’s toward Donald Trump.
The endorsement could come as early as Monday, unnamed sources, close to Mr. Trump’s campaign, told Lifezette.

“Those sources noted that Cruz has become seriously concerned about the long-term threats to the Constitution and conservative priorities, should Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton win the White House,” the online political site, founded by conservative pundit Laura Ingraham, reported.

The endorsement would come after some warm exchanges between the two on the U.S. government’s planned end in its role as managing a group that oversees Internet domain names. The issue is Mr. Cruz’s top legislative priority, as he’s been leading the charge to maintain the U.S. control over the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and and Numbers (ICANN).

This week, Mr. Trump said he supported Mr. Cruz’s effort in a statement.

Remind me, who is this guy Ted Cruz???? Going up against 'The Donald' has been political suicide thus far! TM

True, true TK.

But the Republican pledge read:
"I (name) affirm that if I do not win the 2016 Republican nomination for president of the United States I will endorse the 2016 Republican presidential nominee regardless of who it is. I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party."

Ted signed it. Kasich signed it. Jeb Bush signed it. All three turned out to be puke when they refused to get on board!

Back in March Cruz to MSNBC’s Chuck Todd:

Todd: "You've said some tough things on Trump. Why are you comfortable supporting him as the nominee if he ends up the nominee."
Cruz: "Well, listen, I pledged at the outset I will support the Republican nominee, whoever it is ... when I give my word for something, I follow through and do what I said."

That was then. But what happened in July at the RNC turned a lot of people, 'sour milk' to Ted Cruz personally.

"...vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution."

What kind of team player capitulates at the 11th hour like this?

He betrays all he said he stood for!!!

What a scary big ego on this guy!

It looks like he couldn't wait until Monday...

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.

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.

but is this there real motivation

Earlier this week RNC Chairman Reince Priebus warned Governor Kasich, Ted Cruz and Jeb Bush that the GOP may block future runs for lying and refusing to endorse Donald Trump.

I think resistance to Donald Trump should be interpreted as support for Hillary. Anyone who would risk being put in that category is finished once DT becomes President. And if he didn't? I imagine these true blue principled RINOs would be tarred and feathered for the rest of their life! This election is an epic turning point -towards globalization or towards national pride. it's a big one. That's how it looks from here! TM
