“Let’s say your rich uncle gives you the keys to his Cadillac. You drive it down to Martin Luther King Boulevard and pull over to the curb. You leave the keys in it, and the door open, and walk back home. It gets stolen.
Who do you think your uncle is going to blame ?”
I’m sure my Uncle would blame me for being irresponsible - though the thief is the one who actually committed a crime.
What you’re kind of smoothing over is that Carson was not irresponsible, and Cruz is not being held account for his underhanded campaign tactics.
Carson said he was going home to get clothes and beat the snowstorm that was expected to hit Iowa the next day. That’s what the media reported. Cruz’s people took it out of context, then lied to steal the election. They knew what was right, and purposefully distorted it in order to lie to people to steal votes.
If I had any respect left for Cruz or his team, it evaporated with this little dirty trick.
And that was my point.
