Cruz supported BLM and other thugs and made that very clear in Chicago. Heidi is campaigning. She’s fair game.

“Cruz supported BLM and other thugs and made that very clear in Chicago.”

I will still vote for Trump in November if he gets the nomination, but not because of the Trump devotees on Free Republic. It will be in spite of you.

You just can’t stop spreading lies even when they have been called out and exposed repeatedly. It’s filthy and disgusting.

Ted Cruz DID NOT support Black Lives Matter in Chicago. He criticized Trump. He also pointed out BLM is wrong, along with the other protestors.

Contrary to your lies about Cruz, here are the things he has said about BLM:

“If you look at the Black Lives Matter movement, one of the most disturbing things is more than one of their protests have embraced rabid rhetoric, rabid anti-police language, literally suggesting and embracing and celebrating the murder of police officers. That is disgraceful.”

“The responsibility of that lies with the protestors who took violence into their own hands.” (Speaking about the BLM and other protestors at Trump’s rallies.)

More here about what Cruz really said:

The problem with Trump devotees is that no one can have the slightest criticism of their hero without somehow being the enemy. This slavish devotion would be merely disgusting if it was not so terribly dangerous.

I have criticisms of Trump and Cruz. I do not pledge my loyalty to either or the party. I am committed to conservative principles. If a candidate or leader sticks to them, he will not be criticized by me. If he does not stick with the principles, he will be criticized.

I disagree with Cruz on the level of blame he directed at Trump for the tone of his campaign. His comments have some validity. But Trump’s “tone” was a minor, tactical error. The BLM and Ayer’s type mobs deserve to be put down in the worst way. They need to be rounded up and put in prison where they belong. Trump was deprived of his first amendment rights. But none of what Cruz said represents him “supporting” BLM. That’s a bold faced lie you keep spreading.

Trump and his devotees have been smearing Cruz for months. If it were not for that, Trump would have won the nomination. It was his choice. He made the wrong one. If he had just stuck to why he was the better candidate, he could have won already.

The Cruz haters have been piling on for months now. They’ve directed much more vitriol at Cruz than at Hillary or Obama. Looks like a bunch of Planned Parenthood reps out to get their number one enemy, rather than conservative patriots. They’ve also been predicting the demise of Cruz since before Iowa. “He’s done. He’s finished. It’s all over for Cruz.” I’ve heard it almost every day. It’s stupid. And now that they have nearly run out of steam for all the nasty accusations and filthy lies hurled at him, they whine because he ought to be a good sport and bow out for the good of Trump... err you meant good of the country (as apparently Trump devotees see absolutely no difference).

How about... NO.

If Trump and his devotees cannot extend an olive branch to Cruz and his millions of supporters, then they can expect to lose. Period.
