Are you still blaming Cruz for rightly saying that the protesters were responsible for their own actions, but that Trump is responsible for the statements that he's made at his rallies?

Are you claiming that Trump isn't responsible for his statements? I never said he was responsible for the organized leftist riots, but he did leave himself more vulnerable to them.

And yes, intellectually honest people can judge just who is responsible for their "shameful words".

Here are several examples from a single thread of Cruz supporters who have changed their cote after his comments from last night.

There are dozens of similar examples from different Freepers on other threads.

These people weren't convinced by me: they were convinced by reading Cruz's own words.

Face it. Cruz f----d up by expressing de facto solidarity with organized, extreme Left criminal disruptors.

So keep drinking your Establishment kool aid.

Ted Cruz has done this to himself:

This is how I feel too. I was leaning Cruz for my vote on Tuesday and I am now definitely goin Trump.

I have to agree. Read the quote by Cruz this morning and couldn't believe it. Anyone who would willfully and knowingly pretend that this wasn't a scumbag, libtard “rent a mob” sent out to paint Trump as a provocateur, is a scumbag and unworthy of leading this country. Like the POS currently infesting 1600, his idiotic and irresponsible statement is wholly dishonest, opportunistic, and erroneous point the finger at blame at the victim rather than the perps. POS.

I just talked to a neighbor this morning who said he was on the fence and was in doubt for Tuesday, but had some problems with both candidates. After he saw Cruz take the side of move on and black lives matter he said he will now vote for Trump

Like the first poster in that thread, I was a Cruz supporter (actually voted for him while holding my nose in the primary). I am now supporting Donald J. Trump.

I will not now support Ted Cruz unless he is the last person standing against Hillary. He sided with Soros, MoveON, Sanders, Clinton, and BlackLivesMatter.

And I even used to support Ted Cruz. These liberals-at-the-last-minute are really disgusting to me. And I wasted hundreds of dollars on Cruz. I regret every single penny of it.

Here are a few more. As I've noted, there are dozens. I never realized I was so persuasive.

Apparently Ted Cruz is magnitudes more persuasive than I am.:

I actually voted for Cruz in the primary. I now feel bad about that. I am beginning to love Donald J. Trump. The man isn’t afraid and he doesn’t back down. That is the type person we need leading this nation.

You and me are in the same vote. Very disappointed in Cruz’s reaction to all this.

In the light of recent developments, I’ve had to change my thinking and my tagline.
Old: 'Trump and/or Cruz, it’s all good.'
New: 'Trump is the now only hope.'

This is an epic fail on Cruz’ part. You can clarify what CRuz said but he is talking out of both sides of his mouth. This is no time for Wishy washy Establishment weasel talk. He thought he was going to be able to take advantage of this situation to use this against Trump. Bad idea. Bad reaction. Bad judgment. Cruz is done.
