I never do vanities but my entire family was just floored to hear Cruz say it

Even my 8.5 year old

My 15 year old boy was super angry even though he has the A flu

My wife says it’s really lit up his Facebook negatively

“The Chicago Atrocity will make Trump President!!”

I think you may be correct; and the beauty of it as that Trump cancelled to avoid really bad things from happening, while the anarchists are crowing that they shut down a free-speech event, which isn’t going to go over too well with many people in this country. Seems to me Trump came out smelling like a rose and the anarchists came out smelling like poop.

And then Cruz sunk his own ship with this:

“Ted Cruz said violent protests are “the predictable consequence” of the atmosphere Trump’s campaign has created, while Bernie Sanders had his own strong words for the Republican presidential candidate. “

So it now appears Ted Cruz and Bernie Sanders are two peas in a pod. Who woulda thunk it?

Transcript of “Ted Cruz: Donald Trump is Responsible for What Happened in Chicago!” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmxBp4IFe_I

... be here and energy were seeing on the ground at the grassroots enthusiasm. What we’re seeing we’re seeing republicans unifying behind our campaign. We’re seeing republicans coming together. This race has become a two-person race between me and Donald Trump more republicans are unified behind our campaign.

And I also want to mention something about the events this evening. This is a sad day. Political discourse should occur in the country without a threat of violence. Without anger and rage and hatred directed each other. We need to learn have disagreements without being disagreeable. To have disagreements while respecting human being on the other side.

Earlier today over 30 people were arrested at one rally and then tonight as violence broke out the rally was cancelled altogether.

Now responsibility for that lies with protesters who took violence into their own hands.

But any campaign responsibility responsibility starts at the top. Any candidate is responsible for the culture of the campaign. 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.

(reporter question - not clear)

I think that decision should be based on public safety.

But I think it campaign bears responsibility for creating an environment. When the candidate urges supporters to engage in physical violence have punch people in the face the predictable consequence of that is that it escalates and today is unlikely to be the last such instance. We saw earlier today in St. Louis over 30 arrested. That’s not how our politics should occur.

You know the city of Chicago in 1968 saw some ugly days when politics descended into hatred and instability and even violence and it is my hope that in 2016 that we can appeal to our better angels avoid going down that road once more.

hardly.

And the beauty of it is that Trump cancelled to avoid really bad things from happening by the leftist-anarchists who have been organizing this violence for weeks via social media, while the anarchists are crowing that they shut down a free-speech event, which isn’t going to go over too well with many people in this country.

Well now we know the message that Jeb Bush carried to the 3 stooges on the day of the debate.

The left joins forces with the GOPe to cause riots.

Gleen Beck supporters were also at the Trump rally protesting.


The same people who brought color revolutions overseas can bring them here.

The globalists are evil and deadly people.

"Is this the reason why Trump said he 'loves the least educated'?"


Trump has expressed many times that he loves the highly educated, the "pretty-well-educated", and the poorly educated, (as well as women, men, the young, the old, Evangelicals, the military, vets, Hispanics, etc., etc., etc.).   Here are a couple quick video clip examples to clearly illustrate that truth:

- Supportive groups that Trump loves (click video on that webpage)

- Groups that supported Trump (youtube video clip)

“Its only half Trumps fault. He instigates violence which only encourages the protesters. “

Nonsense.

And the real beauty of it is that Trump cancelled to avoid really bad things from happening by the leftist-anarchists who have been organizing this violence for weeks via social media, while the anarchists are crowing that they shut down a free-speech event, which isn’t going to go over too well with many people in this country.

“With that obnoxious “nasal” voice, we have to hit the mute button in our house every time he is on denigrating everyone and everything. I’d have a hard time listening to him even if he had something worthwhile to say. I can’t imagine a debate between Cruzer n’ Cackles!”

sadly enough, i have to agree about the REALLY irritating voice.

The most current rating from Better Business Bureau for Trump Univ was “A”. And 98% of students attending had a favorable experience. So what is your evidence that the university was a scam?

As you might be aware, anyone can file a law suit in US because the plaintiff is not always required to pay for the legal & court costs of defendant even if the suit loses. And many lawyers will take of those suits because it costs little but reward can be huge by fooling the jury.

The DC establishment has obviously decided that their new strategy will be to portray Trump as Hitler and a rabble rouser. They send the left’s BLM and Commie crowd out to disrupt a Trump rally and then blame it on Trump and his peaceful supporters, who have been meeting in huge peaceful rallies across the country for months.

Cruz is parroting the establishment’s talking points, proving beyond a doubt he’s no liberty and truth-respecting Tea Partier, but an establishment fraud and therefore a danger to our sovereignty and liberty.

I think all Cruz was saying was that if you create an environment that your supporters feel it is OK to commit violent acts, like the guy who cold cocked that BLM protester, then you share some of the responsibility.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.


Like Stabby the Clown? You know, Beck the Knife?

You are wrong, catnipman.
Cruz is nothing like Bernie.

Bernie is much more honest and has never flip-flopped about his socialist dogma.
