That’s a total mischaracterization of what he said, but, whatever, knock yourself out.
It’s not a mischaracterization. Cruz had a chance to come out decisively against MoveOn/BLM leftists and he hasn’t. He’s blamed Trump for the protests. Two days in a row now he’s gone around on the shows blaming Trump. There’s no escaping it. In typical lawyer fashion, he says “Violence bad, BUT....” and then goes on to blame Trump.
So what exactly was Cruz blaming Trump for?
