Ted Cruz totally snubbed Donald Trump in his Texas GOP convention speech

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) spoke at Texas' Republican convention on Saturday about the need for "a president who will have your back," CNN reports. He didn't ever mention presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, whom he hasn't endorsed.

Some state delegates reportedly expressed uncertainty about voting for Trump and disappointment at Cruz's dropping out earlier in May.

"I don't know if I'm going to support Trump or not," one delegate said. "I think it's up to Trump to court conservatives."
