Ted Cruz is a sonofabitch for saying that.

Ted is such a fraud. He plays #1 holy roller but then he is exposed for giving less than 1% to his church. If he gives less than 1% to his church, that is his decision and fine with me but please spare us of the holier than thou stuff.

He supported TPP before he was against it (he only shifted because of political winds). He’s a showman and I voted for him in the primary. I regret that now.

That parse won’t make it off the dock

This is orchestrated friend

There is no accident that Cruz and Kasich and Rubio and Fox and ALL THE OTHER HATE TRUMP MEDIA were there immediately to try to start the narrative

THAT TRUMP IS DANGEROUS FOR AMERICA

I wonder if this is what came out of the Sea Island cabal

I was a Cruz man too from 2013 till fall

You Cruzbots are pathetic with your excuse making for Cruz. He’s a disgusting little POS who’s been exposed for the fraud that he is. Senator Palpatine can go to hell.

And who does Ted blame for the number of lies his campaign continues to promulgate?

-- ... why are black agitators mad at Trump? He hasn't said anything that I can recall that would be a negative for them. --

Trump has said he would create jobs and stifle the easy flow of drugs from Mexico to the US.

I don’t think half these people spewing this hate speech for Donald Trump have ever even heard one of his rally speeches. I listen to ALL of them by pulling up Right Side Network programs. They have a list of all of them. At least, before you start criticizing Trump again listen to some of the rallies. I am really getting fed up with all the crap and lies being said about him.

Glenn Beck is the worst thing Cruz did to himself.

What part of Mr. Cruz began by saying that the “protesters who took violence into their own hands” were responsible for the episode. places responsibility on Trump?

Also, what part of 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. isn't true?

“And who does Ted blame for the number of lies his campaign continues to promulgate?”

Ted said that Trump is responsible for his campaign as he is the head of it, but then Ted denies any responsibility for his own campaign.

Ted is nothing but a liberal.

” a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence,”

you mean like Reagan, when he said Berkeley protesters needed to be “taken by the scruffs of their necks”? Where was Cruz when we needed him to denounce the Gipper’s encouragement of violence?

I had also supported tough talking Ted until now.

Someone needs to stand up to the leftist BS and the GOP too.

Seems there is only one choice now

The BLMs and Bernouts don’t even know what they’re protesting about. A Fox reporter last night tried to interview two of them last night. They agreed to. But when he asked them what they hope to accomplish they both, indiviually (these people were not together) said they didn’t want to say. You could tell they really didn’t know. These people are being USED by the Establishment and don’t even know it.

"Sticking your head in the sand won’t make it go away."

Yes, I've heard it all from Trumpsters - he is the only true conservative [with zero conservative record to go on], he is the only one that understands us, anyone who supports another is a turn-coat anti-American....

In the beginning Teddy had me fooled. He did a pretty good job of hiding is true self.

At the risk of being flamed, I’ll point out that this is the equivalent to the “if she hadn’t dressed so provocatively, she wouldn’t have been assaulted.” argument. Blame sharing is an attempt to lower the culpability of the real criminal.

No he didn't - but the Alinskyites at the Slimes know that their claim can hurt both Cruz and Trump among the low-information electorate. And not a few FReepers are falling for it.
