Problem:CLEVELAND — Senator Ted Cruz of Texas did not come here this week to unite Republicans around their presidential nominee, Donald J. Trump. Armed with his usual arsenal of florid oratory, self-regard and blunt force, he came instead to rally them, someday, around Ted Cruz. 
  
  
  
 He failed, at least for the moment. And in the process, he managed to do the unthinkable — make Mr. Trump look like a victim. 
  
 Determined to be more than just another speaker and looking beyond the November election, Mr. Cruz worked with aides for weeks to fashion a speech that they hoped would define him beyond his failed 2016 quest for the White House and advance his image beyond Tea Party upstart to a modern version of his idol, Ronald Reagan. 
  
 He offered lofty paeans on Wednesday to an America that included gays and atheists and where heroism was displayed not just by service members fighting terrorism on the front lines but also by the forgiving families of those killed last year at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, S.C. He spoke to a broader audience of Americans that many have accused Republicans of ignoring. ||||| Donald Trump said goodbye to Cleveland Friday, pronouncing the Republican National Convention a yuge success and launching a barrage of parting shots at GOP rival Ted Cruz, who refused to endorse Trump in a controversial speech that got the Texas senator booed off the stage. 
  
 The vindictive victory lap laid bare Trump's simmering anger at Cruz, who brought drama to Quicken Loans Arena on Wednesday when he began a speech to cheers and ended it by garnering a raucous chorus of boos after he refused to endorse the man who had bested him. 
  
 “I like Ted, he’s fine,” Trump said in a trademark, ad-libbed press conference. “I don’t need his endorsement. If he gives it to me, I will not accept it.” 
  
 Trump said if Cruz had endorsed him, it may have brightened his former rival's future presidential prospects. 
  
 "He should have done it," Trump said. "He would have been in better shape in four years." 
  
 Added Trump: "He's got intellect, but he didn't use it." 
  
 Speaking 12 hours after his historic acceptance speech, and with running mate and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence at his side, Trump praised his children, and predicted a major bounce coming out of the four-day convention. But the GOP nominee spent most of the news conference pounding Cruz, who finished second to Trump in a bruising primary campaign that began as a field of 17. 
  
 Trump dredged through a primary’s worth of animosity with Cruz, blasting him repeatedly while basking in the glow of his victory. 
  
 While Trump and Cruz initially steered clear of criticizing each other as other candidates fell by the wayside, the gloves came off once state primaries and caucuses began. A Cruz super PAC ran an ad featuring a racy picture of Trump’s former supermodel wife, Melania, in an effort to tar him in the conservative state. 
  
 Trump responded with a retweet that showed Melania side-by-side with an unflattering picture of Cruz’s wife, Heidi, and the words: “No need to ‘spill the beans.’ The images are worth a thousand words.” 
  
 On Friday, Trump managed to praise Heidi while delivering a stinging backhanded blow to Cruz. 
  
 “I think Heidi Cruz is a great person,” Trump said yesterday. “I think she’s the best thing he’s got going, (that) and his kids.” 
  
 Trump was just getting started in settling his score with Cruz, who he allowed to speak in a prime time slot on Wednesday, even though Cruz declined to endorse him. Trump predicted Cruz would never mount a serious campaign for president and said that if he does, “maybe I’ll start a super PAC” to attack him. 
  
 Hopes that the two could bury the hatchet and unite the party disappeared when Cruz spoke on Wednesday, urging Republicans to “vote your conscience” but refusing to accede to chants of “Endorse Trump” that were followed by a loud chorus of boos. 
  
 During the campaign, Cruz bitterly lashed out at Trump when the National Enquirer, which had also ran an unsubstantiated story accusing him of having multiple affairs, published a picture purportedly of Cruz’s father, Rafael Cruz, standing near Lee Harvey Oswald. Trump mentioned the story in multiple interviews, clearly angering Cruz. 
  
 “[I’m not going to] come like a servile puppy dog and say, ‘thank you very much for maligning my wife and maligning my father,’” Cruz told Texas delegates during a sometimes contentious meeting Thursday morning. 
  
 Trump took a shot at Ohio Gov. John Kasich, another primary rival who refused to attend the convention even though it was in his home state. 
  
 "Whether you're the governor of Ohio, whether you're a senator from Texas, or any of the other people that I beat so easily and so badly, you have no choice," Trump said. "You've got to go for Trump." ||||| Story highlights Donald Trump said Friday that he wouldn't accept Ted Cruz's endorsement if he offered it 
  
 The comments cap off a week where the politicians were at odds throughout their party's convention 
  
 (CNN) Ted Cruz won't endorse Donald Trump, but the Republican nominee said Friday he wouldn't take the support even if the Texas senator offered. 
  
 "If he gives it, I will not accept it," Trump said at a news conference in Cleveland at the close of the Republican National Convention. 
  
 "I don't want his endorsement," he added. "Just, Ted, stay home, relax, enjoy yourself." 
  
 He also suggested that if Cruz were to seek the White House, he would set up a super PAC to oppose him. 
  
 And Trump, speaking the end of a week dedicated to unifying the party, once again revived the conspiracy theory published in the National Enquirer that linked Cruz's father to John F. Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald -- an accusation that has no evidence behind it.

 "Honestly, he may have ruined his political career. I feel so badly," Trump said this morning of Cruz, his former primary rival. 
  
 Cruz was booed off the stage on the third day of the convention for suggesting that people should “vote their conscience” in November. The Texas senator defended his speech the next morning at a Texas delegate breakfast, arguing he’s “not in the habit of supporting someone who attacks my wife and attacks my father.” 
  
 But Trump said this morning that Cruz will “come and endorse over the next little while. It's because he has no choice. But I don't want his endorsement. What difference does it make?" 
  
 "Ted, just stay home, relax, enjoy yourself," Trump said to laughter from the crowd of supporters and convention volunteers. 
  
 Trump said he reviewed a version of Cruz's speech, which included no endorsement, but allowed him to take the stage anyway Wednesday night. 
  
 “He got up and he added a sentence, which could have been viewed as a nasty thing in terms of what he said because he was implying something which is wrong. But that's OK,” Trump said, referring to Cruz’s “vote your conscience" line. 
  
 Trump also called Cruz “dishonorable” for not supporting him and thereby rejecting the pledge each GOP candidate signed during the primaries indicating they would support the eventual party nominee. 
  
 "I like Ted, he's fine. Again, don't want his endorsement," Trump said. "If he gives it, I will not accept it, just so you understand." 
  
 Although they started the primaries cordially, Trump and Cruz were engaged in some heavy mudslinging at the end. Cruz called Trump a “pathological liar” and “utterly amoral.” 
  
 Trump got into the habit of calling Cruz “Lyin’ Ted” and insinuated that Cruz’s father, Rafael, was a conspirator in President John Kennedy’s assassination. Trump even went as far as to share a tweet with an unflattering photo of Cruz’s wife, Heidi, alongside a photo of his ex-model wife Melania. 
  
 Trump defended himself today in circulating the tabloid story about Cruz’s father. 
  
 “All I did is point out the fact that on the cover of the National Enquirer there was a picture of [Rafael Cruz] and crazy Lee Harvey Oswald having breakfast,” Trump said of the unsubstantiated allegations, adding that Cruz’s father is a “lovely guy.” 
  
 On Heidi, Trump insisted, "I didn't do anything." 
  
 “I think Heidi Cruz is a great person. I think it's the best thing he's got going, and his kids, if you want to know the truth,” Trump said. 
  
 Today, alongside running mate Mike Pence, Trump spent equally as much time celebrating the four-day convention as he did attacking his former opponents. 
  
 “It was amazing. There was great love in that room,” Trump said. 
  
 He also thanked his team, called RNC Chairman Reince Priebus a "superstar," and congratulated his family on their speeches. 
  
 Trump also took the time to give himself a pat on the back for his speech on the final night of the convention. Trump said he didn't mean to make his speech long, but "what happened is the applause was so long and so crazy." 
  
 Trump also argued the TV ratings for the convention "were through the roof." 
  
 "We created one of the most successful conventions in the history of conventions," Trump boasted. 
  
 But Trump's message today was one directed at those who still are not aboard the "Trump train." 
  
 “No matter how much you like, or dislike, no matter what your feelings, whether you're the governor of Ohio, whether you're a senator from Texas,” Trump said, referring to Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who also hasn't endorsed Trump and skipped the convention. 
  
 “Or any of the other people that I beat so easily and so badly, you have no choice, you got to go for Trump.” |||||
Solution:
Despite Ted Cruz's refusal to endorse Donald Trump at the GOP convention, Trump thinks Cruz will eventually come around—but he has no intention of accepting any future thumbs-up, ABC News reports. "[Cruz will] come and endorse over the next little while," he told convention volunteers Friday in Cleveland, reports Fox News. "It's because he has no choice. But I don't want his endorsement. ... Ted, just stay home, relax, enjoy yourself." He said that Cruz's very public diss "may have ruined his [own] political career" and that he was "dishonorable" for going against the pledge GOP candidates took during the primaries to support the eventual nominee. Trump also noted he had seen Cruz's speech before Wednesday evening, except for one line that Cruz—whom the New York Times calls the convention's "Brutus"—threw in: "Vote your conscience." "That's OK," Trump shrugged, adding for emphasis, "I like Ted, he's fine. Again, don't want his endorsement. If he gives it, I will not accept it, just so you understand." Other people he discussed in front of his supporters: Ted Cruz's father ("a lovely guy"), RNC head Reince Priebus ("a superstar"), and Ted's wife, Heidi, who he'd disparaged on Twitter with an unflattering retweet. "I think Heidi Cruz is a great person," he said, adding a backhanded swipe at Ted: "I think it's the best thing he's got going, and his kids, if you want to know the truth." Trump even mentioned he'd consider starting a super PAC against Cruz if he decided to run again for president, reports CNN. Someone else he didn't have a lot of praise for: Ohio Gov. John Kasich: "No matter how much you like, or dislike, no matter what your feelings ... you have no choice: You got to go for Trump."
