What Trump Had To Say About Cruz After His Indiana Victory
Donald
Trump became the GOP's presumptive nominee after his primary victory in
the state of Indiana on Tuesday. In his victory speech, the billionaire
extended the olive branch to his vanquished competitors, including
Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who suspended his campaign following his loss in
the Hoosier state.
"I have to tell you I have met some of the most incredible competitors
that I have ever competed against right here on the Republican party,"
Trump said during his victory speech on Wednesday. "Just so you
understand, Ted Cruz--I don't know if he likes me or he doesn't like
me--but he is one hell of a competitor. A tough, smart guy."

Trump went on to say that Cruz has an "amazing future" and a "beautiful family".
The real estate mogul also used the opportunity to begin "going after Hillary Clinton."
"She will not be a great president, a good president. She will be a poor president. She does not understand trade." |

Jindal: Republicans Who Won't Support Trump Only Help Hillary Clinton
With
Senator Ted Cruz's departure from the race following Tuesday's Indiana
primary, the presidential campaign has entered a new phase.
Traditionally, the party would begin the process of consolidating its
support around the presumptive nominee. However, Donald Trump has proven
to be a schismatic figure in the past months, with the so-called "never
Trump" faction of Republicans promising to withhold support from the
real estate mogul.
WATCH: Louisiana Governor Jindal calls for Republicans to rally around Trump
Many in the Republican party, including Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal,
are calling for those in the "never Trump" camp to rally around the
presumptive nominee despite their apprehension.
"I know a lot of my friends are in the "never Trump" camp and I
understand that, I was very critical of Donald Trump," Jindal said on
Tuesday's Hannity. "But we need to be honest with ourselves. Today we've
got two choices: it is either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton." Jindal
went on to add that not supporting Trump will help put Hillary Clinton
in The White House.
"I think anyone who says they canning support Donald Trump needs to
understand that one of the consequences is that will make it easier for
Hillary Clinton to win and I don't think we can accept that as a
country." |
