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.
