And yes of course Cruz gambled and hoped it would help pave the way to 2020. I think it backfired, but maybe not for long. Cruz will most definitely take another run at it.

He at minimum pissed off half the republican primary voters, and likely some of his own supporters. The Texas delegation who were his delegates were LIVID last night and remained so today. He will run again, his ego won't let him not. But he won't sniff the party nomination again. He is Jeb Bush/Chris Christie to the primary voters now. Its over.
Trump is not butt hurt at all. He let Cruz hang himself. And Trump comes out on top for it. He gets more people united for the cause than before Cruz spoke. And he even got to troll him in the arena by coming out early and taking the spotlight of Cruz.
