When Trump’s rally in Chicago was prevented by the Soros funded groups (attempted all over the country by the same), when supporters were attacked and their property damaged Cruz could have supported his rival’s constitutional right to speech and peacefully assemble and forcefully condemned the rioters.

I think he would have been much better off to do so.

War came to Chicago and Cruz joined the Enemy.

I wouldn't go that far. He just attempted a cheap political tactic, and it went badly for him.

Since the Chicago thug attack Cruz has been more than happy to blame the violent protesters’ on Trump. It was not a one-time gaff. Cruz is beginning to lose any credibility as an honest patriot.

You are correct. It was a sleazy political stunt and I do understand the desperation which motivated it.

I lost faith in him prior to that for two other reasons.

He claimed that the Natural Born Citizen issue is “settled law” and he knows very well that it isn’t. Should a court ever take it up, he could very well be proven correct - that he is eligible but it is not settled law by any means.

He would find this out should he be on the ticket when the Democrats would, in Nancy Grace’s words, UNLEASH the Lawyers.

Then he piled on to the CNN lie that David Duke endorsed Trump, he did nothing of the sort. And Trump had repeatedly denounced Duke and the KKK. Cruz acted as though Donald was wearing white sheets himself.

Taking the Democratmedia as gospel cost him the hero status I had placed him in.
