Ted Cruz (R-Texas) from the race, Priebus called The Donald their party’s “presumptive nominee.”Priebus admitted the real estate titan’s rise to the top has taken him by surprise.“Look, I don’t think anyone predicted what happened,” the party big said on Wednesday. “So, look, we’re here. We’re going to get behind the presumptive nominee.”Just a few weeks ago, Priebus was snapping at Trump over the candidate’s complaints about delegate allocation rules that he believed were unfairly benefiting Cruz.“It’s the responsibility of the campaigns to understand” convention rules, Priebus tweeted about Trump’s beefs. “Complaints now?
