Captions paid for by Nbcuniversal Television ted cruz took the stage at Donald Trumps convention and purposely did not endorse his nominee. Convention goers broke out into boos as trump crashed the speech. If you love our country and love your children as much i as know that you do, stand and speak and vote your conscience. Vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the institution. I appreciate the enthusiasm of new york delegation. We must make the most of our moment to fight for freedom, to protect our godgiven rights, even of those of whom we dont agree. God bless each and every one of you and god bless the United States of america. And while pences prime time address was supposed to be the capstone trumps first reaction was this tweeting wow, ted cruz got booed off the stage, didnt honor the pledge. I saw his speech two hours early and let him take the stage. No big deal. In headlines across the country, reaction from the political crash reaction came crashing down on cruz. It was an awful selfish speech that showed everybody why he earned the reputation he has on capitol hill. I think it was an awful performance by someone who showed him to not be a mad of his word. Ted cruz showed america what he really is, he is a fraud, selfcentered. Security had to escort his wife out of the arena. Watch what happened when cruise held a rally earlier in the day. Our party now has a nominee. And i dont know [ booing ] that was pretty well or k straited. Cruzs nonendorsement was the exception as they finally rallied behind trump. After a long primary the time for fighting each other is over. It is time to fight for a new direction for america. Let me be clear, a vote for anyone other than donald trump in november is a vote for Hillary Clinton. And while the night also had another trump Family Member offer ago strong personal endorsement it included a roster of republican minorities making their best pitch for gop win in november. The night was brought to an end by mike pence making his introduction to the American People defending trump and taking on Hillary Clinton all at once. An behalf of my family hear and gone, i accept your nomination to run an serve as Vice President of the United States of america. Hillary clinton wants a better title and i would too if i was already americas secretary of status quo. Donald trump gets it. He is in a game usually reserved for talkers. When he talks he doesnt tiptoe around the thousand new rules of political correctness. It is change versus status quo. When donald trump becomes president of the United States of america the change will be huge. And just when everyone was ready to move on from the controversy from Melania Trumps monday night speech donald said good news is melanias speech got more publicity than any. That tweet was contradicted by meredith megiver who took responsibility. She said in working with Melania Trump we discussed many people who inspierd her and messages she wanted to share with the personal people, a person she always liekd is me shell obama. Over the phone she read my some passages from the speech and later included some of the phrasing that ultimately became the final speech. I did not check mrs. Obamas speeches. I feel terrible for the chaos i called melania and the trumps. No harm was meant. The donald is set to close out the convention tonight with his own keynote address.
