Trump Rips GOP Rivals Who Broke pledge:
“They signed a pledge saying they will abide, saying they will back the candidate of the party,” Trump said during a campaign appearance in Bangor, Maine, adding, “They broke their word. In my opinion, they should never be allowed to run for public office again because what they did is disgraceful.”
Trump didn’t mention any Republican candidates by name. But some of his significant primary challengers, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Ohio Gov. John Kasich — who on Wednesday released a letter on his campaign fundraising list highlighting a positive poll for him — have yet to endorse Trump despite saying during the primary they would back the GOP nominee.

Minutes later a Fulshear police officer shot the mother outside the home when she refused to put down her weapon.
Christy Sheats had “ample time and opportunity” to kill her husband “but she chose not to,” Nehls said, sharing details of the incident for the first time.
