Toward the end of the Clown Car Destruction Derby, I labeled Ted Cruz the TRUS pervert. He had come out with a campaign meme, TRUSTED. Well, when you take away the TED part, TRUS is what’s left. A TRUS is an anal probe used for prostate exams and biopsies. Last night at the Ku Klux Koronation, Cruz used his TRUS on Rump Dump Trump.
The Republican convention erupted into tumult on Wednesday night as the bitter primary battle between Donald J. Trump and Senator Ted Cruz reignited unexpectedly, crushing hopes that the party could project unity.
In the most electric moment of the convention, boos and jeers broke out as it became clear that Mr. Cruz — in a prime-time address from center stage — was not going to endorse Mr. Trump. It was a pointed snub on the eve of Mr. Trump’s formal acceptance speech.
As hundreds of delegates chanted “Vote for Trump!” and “Say it!” Mr. Cruz tried to dismiss the outburst as “enthusiasm of the New York delegation” — only to have Mr. Trump himself suddenly appear in the back of the convention hall. Virtually every head in the room seemed to turn from Mr. Cruz to Mr. Trump, who was stone-faced and clearly angry as he egged on delegates by pumping his fist…
From <NY Times>
Rachel Maddow covered the story in several video clips.
Multiple Barf Bag Alerts!!!
In the first she discussed the endorsement omission,
In the second she covered the crowd’s rabid reaction.
In the third she covered Trump’s gamble:
And a most incompetent gamble it was. Knowing that the issues between the two men were so hostile and personal, made this predictable. "I am not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father," Cruz said. Lacking any other reason, Rump Dump should have known that the TRUS pervert was lying, because Cruz made the promise to endorse on a day of the week ending in Y. And if a malignant little twit like Cruz can make a total fool of Rump Dump, what will happen on the foreign policy front when he goes nose to nose with a real bad-ass?
Voting BLUE has never been more critical!!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
The smirk on Cruz's face after his "vote your conscience" was absolutely priceless. One of the best backstabbing acts I've ever seen. And Trump was so incredibly stupid that he didn't see it coming. Yeah, "that great businessman" didn't have a clue this was coming when he invited Cruz to speak. ROTFLMAO. Drumpf will have to content with more of Creepy Cruz than he bargained for in the next months.
I thought it was pretty good, after seeing the video. Most everyone there was in 'shock' that Ted didn't endorse him. Cruz: “I’ll tell you the day that pledge was abrogated. The day that was abrogated was the day this got personal,” Cruz said at the breakfast at the Cleveland Marriott Downtown where the Texas delegation is staying. “I am not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father.” *statesman.com
*Chris, I read the same thing about Cruz preening for 2020 Prez too!
Thanks, Tom.
Just for completeness' sake, TRUS is the acronym for TransRectal UltraSound almost always used during protate biopsies.
The smirk on Cruz' face – right – but the grin on Rachel's face – priceless.
It is, of course, questionable whether he hurt Trump in the slightest In the topsy-turvy world which American politics has become, endorsements can hurt and attacks can boost.
I started out with a few lines and ended up with this bit of a diatribe. lol.
Cruz may have upset a number of GOP/TP people by NOT endorsing Drumpf. He also lost any opportunities to win the nomination in 2020 for POTUS. Just as well as a majority of people do not care for him at all. Cruz is getting back at Drumpf for what he said about his wife & Father. Cruz talks about defending the constitution when he himself wants to tear it apart under the guise of God Bless America banner. Yup, Cruz got an opportunity to get after Drumpf and backstab him all the while giving a decent republican valued speech. Priceless! lol.
Don't stay at at home in November. It is also, in 2010, where the Democrats stayed at home is when the GOP gained control of both houses. Get out and VOTE BLUE! Remember this Demos, if you stay at home and do not VOTE, you lose and Drumpf wins.
Those of you contemplating on voting for a third party candidate have no chance in winning at all. Most third party candidates are not registered nor recognized for the presidential race in many states at all. If you still want to vote Green or Libertarian, vote for them at the local level, not for the state nor nationally.
As of April 2016, there were at least 28 distinct ballot-qualified political parties in the United States. There were 214 state-level parties. Some parties are recognized in multiple states. For example, both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party are recognized in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. These two parties account for 102 of the 214 total state-level parties.
Green Party 21 states
Libertarian Party 33 states

I kinda like how this eclipsed Pence…
Yeah, but it's truly sad when Pence, the hate-mongering, dim-witted homophobe, is the sharpest knife in the Rethuglican cutlery.
I agree with you on that one.
A dawg fart would haved ecxlipsed Pense!!
I know I am being malicious, but I loved that Cruz did this. I don't care for him, either, but it was just perfect.
Jim is right, get out and vote!
I forgot to add that I hope Drumpf never has the opportunity to encounter a real badass. Our country will be in real trouble if that happens.
Wasn't Cruz the Cheshire Cat . . . grinning his evil little smile that says "I'll get you Drumpf"!
Based on their behaviour at the convention, I have to wonder how Drumpf supporters will react when Clinton wins the White House. I have to think that the Republican voter suppression police will be out in force.
Thanls all! Rushing Hugs!!
The "Great businessman," is all smoke and mirrors. Reportedly, those who know him well, know that, as I've said any number of times before, he is empty inside! So, what is the take away?: Twit screws ass!
