CLEVELAND – Thursday morning, U.S. Senator Ted Cruz met with Texas delegates and answered a woman's question why he broke his pledge to endorse. 

"The day that was abdicated was the day this became personal …" Cruz said. "I am not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father. And that pledge was not a blanket commitment that if you go and slander and attack Heidi that I'm going to come like a servile puppy dog and say, 'Thank you very much for maligning my wife and maligning my father.'" 

He did not mention Trump's personal attacks on himself.
