Ted Cruz

Well, we had primary day in Texas this week, and it was highly consequential.

Number one, there were a number of House candidates who I endorsed who prevailed.

We had one, Jessica Steinman, who was my former regional director in Houston.

She won decisively the Republican primary.

She is going to be, in all likelihood, the next Republican congressmember from Houston.

We had another, Chris Gober, who's been my lawyer for 10 years.

He won his primary decisively.

He's going to be a new Republican congressman from Central Texas.

We had another, John Bonk, who I endorsed, who is a close friend.

He is the son-in-law of one of my closest friends in the world.

He's been my national finance chairman for years.

So Willie, who's John Bonk's father-in-law, is one of my two or three closest friends on planet Earth, and I love him.

He's a good man.

He's a principled man.

He's a conservative.

He's a godly man.

He's someone who, frankly, I rely on for advice, for spiritual counseling.

We pray together.

We talk together.

uh and and and john uh john is very likely to win he did not clear 50 so unfortunately there's going to be a runoff but i think he's going to prevail i actually did a rally for him just a week ago in the middle of the rally while i had several hundred people there rallying for him i got the chance to announce from the stage while i was up there that that president trump had endorsed him that was a very cool moment
