"Ted Cruz's Controversial Endorsement: The Race is Over"

Senator Ted Cruz endorses former President Donald Trump for the 2024 White House run following Trump's decisive victory in the Iowa Caucus, stating that the Republican primary race is over and it's time for the party to unite. Cruz did not explicitly call on other candidates to suspend their campaigns but emphasized the need to move onward to victory in November. This endorsement makes Cruz the 24th Republican senator to support Trump, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley have yet to receive any sitting senator's endorsement.
