Travis began by lying about what Cruz actually said, then applied that to draw a false conclusion. Then he made personal attacks just like in Alinsky’s Rules. Now he is avoiding the point I made, and instead is once again making factless personal attacks. Those are facts.

I didn’t know what SJW meant either

I didn’t either. I’m guessing that many people didn’t. The explanation is not in the excerpt so you will click the link to see what it means.

"Were you an Alinskyite before Trump began campaigning, or have you only learned the Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals from Trump?"

Wow, you are a special kind of stupid aren't you?

Have you ever read Matt's Books? Enemies Foreign and Domestic

I find it amusing that someone who is engaging in Alinsky-type-tactics (you) by way of you blaming a frequent FR poster who has a hard core Conservative Pedigree of, Alinsky-type-tactics.

What is Irony?

Alex, I'll take "Ironical Ironies" for 200 next.

We're not persuading each other by insulting each other just comitting fratricide.

Very true. I'm working on not dissing Cruz, to build up my candidate choice. I've posted a few "Cruz/Canadian" replies and wish I hadn't.

Cruz has been shifting to the left for a while, but this was so over the top. He should never be considered for the Supreme Court - he has no respect for freedom of speech. His blaming of Trump shows, among others, his inability for logical thinking.

Shouldn't that be spelled distrumping?

It was a phone typo at first but I thought it looked funny so I left it. You're right "distrumpting" is even funnier. FReegards!

If things don’t start to settle-down soon, we’re going to start seeing things that haven’t been seen in the lifetimes of 90% of us.

Quite right.

The globalists have gotten quite far, without most Americans noticing what's happened.

Trumpism is about noticing. They will not surrender peacefully.

If you want to pursue this with honesty, do this: Go listen to the entire statement of Ted Cruz, then come back here and REPORT on what he actually said without lying or misrepresenting. Honest reporting.

Then compare the facts against what Travis and the other Trump supporters on FR have been saying about this thing. See who is lying.

BTW, you apparently do not understand the difference between using the facts to accuse someone of what they are doing and avoiding using any facts to accuse someone. The second is an Alinsky tactic. What I have done is to use facts and logic to tell the truth.

I doubt you will accept my challenge.

Why do you assume that a conservative is immune from practicing Alinksy tactics? The two things are mutually exclusive.

And then you falsely accuse someone else of being stupid. LOL.

"If you want to pursue this with honesty, do this: Go listen to the entire statement of Ted Cruz, then come back here and REPORT on what he actually said without lying or misrepresenting"

Challenge accepted:

“But in any campaign, responsibility starts at the top,” Mr. Cruz continued. “And when you have a campaign that disrespects the voters, when you have a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence, when you have a campaign that is facing allegations of physical violence against members of the press, you create an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discourse.”

Ted's words verbatim.

Facts is Facts. Cruz sided with the leftists.

Trump telling supporters to stand up for yourself if protestors get violent is something I stand for myself.

If you want to be a sheep be my guest. But you should turn in your man-card now.

You failed. That was NOT his entire statement. You have misrepresented his statement.

You lose.

One thing we’ve learned about Cruz in the past couple of weeks is that he’ll do a deal with the devil when he’s under pressure rather than sticking to his principles.

How does one misrepresent a verbatim quote?

Those are Cruz's words.

He blamed Trump. case closed.

Or are you trying to claim those aren't Cruz's words?

His earlier words of blaming the protestors were great and then he jumped over to their side by blaming Trump.

Cruz is done.

To: Mad Dawgg

Any thinking conservative would quickly see that you began the quote with “But”. That means that something that you have failed to quote precedes the but.

What precedes the but in this case is the part of Cruz’ statement in which he places the blame for the violent protects on the protesters and their leaders.

And that makes it clear that your false claim, “Cruz sided with the leftists.”, is a flat out LIE.

Then your next statement: “Trump telling supporters to stand up for yourself if protestors (sp) get violent,” is also a lie. That is NOT what Trump told his supporters. Another LIE.

Trump looks like a weak soft little baby letting a few protesters shut down his rally. Didn’t he say that “I don’t know if I will do the fighting or someone else. Believe me that would never happen to Trump.” It was a disgrace.

So you wanted blood to flow last night in Chicago?

You failed to quote what Cruz said before that, when he blamed the protesters and their leaders. And you failed to do that intentionally, in order to support your propaganda. You failed to report honestly.

False. He blamed the protesters.

Apparently, you did not listen to his entire statement.
