“Wow, Ted Cruz got booed off the stage, didn't honor the pledge! I saw his speech two hours early but let him speak anyway,” Trump said on Twitter. “No big deal!”

Cruz sparked fury among Trump supporters when he concluded his RNC speech without endorsing Trump and told Americans to vote their “conscience” in November.

"And to those listening, please, don't stay home in November," he said. "Stand and speak, and vote your conscience. Vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution."

Citing a "source familiar with the campaign's inner circle's thinking," the Associated Press reported that Trump, his family and advisers were upset at Cruz's lackluster support of the GOP nominee in his speech.

The looks on the Trump family's faces as Cruz delivered his speech really says it all.
