Former Gov. George Pataki has decided not to be a GOP convention delegate after The Post reported tensions over his past vitriol toward presumptive nominee Donald Trump.

“Your story drew reactions and was part of the process,” said Republican state Chair Ed Cox.

Trump loyalists, who ripped Pataki’s nod as an at-large delegate, were poised for a fight, until Pataki’s last-minute withdrawal.

Pataki was expected to back Trump, despite previously saying the real-estate mogul would drive the GOP “off a cliff.”
