“That guy turned over his political testicles long ago,” Jeff Roe said on the Chris Stigall Show on Philadelphia radio. “So I don’t take what he has to say with any meaning. You know, he embarrassed himself pretty quickly in this.”

In the interview, Roe said that the booing began after an “active whip operation got active.”

“Mr. Trump made a call two days ago to Ted and wished him luck at the convention and on his speech, asking him for an endorsement and Ted directly declined,” Roe said. “And Mr. Trump heard that. And then we submitted the speech at 6:31 and there was some back and forth, they clearly would’ve liked us to go further and there was discussions had as recently as walking on the stage and we delivered the speech and 95% of the way through the speech the active whip operation got active and started demanding to endorse and booing and it obviously got sideways at the end.”
