“No we’re not going to hate Mexicans, we’re not going to hate Muslims, we’re not going to insult women, we’re not going to insult veterans, we’re not going to insult African Americans, we are going to bring our people together,” the Democratic presidential candidate said.

Does the same go for Lyin’ Ted and his campaign that has consistently been linked to shady, underhanded, sometimes illegal campaign practices? Does he bear responsibility for creating that environment?

Ted Cruz is a conservative. Trump is not. Surely there is a Reddit blog discussing con artists that might better suit you.

I agree with Cruz too.

Cruz, speaking at a dinner for Illinois Republicans, told a gaggle of reporters that the scenes at the UIC Pavilion are likely to be repeated, given the environment the Trump campaign fosters.

"I think the campaign bears responsibility for creating an environment – when the candidate urges supporters to engage in physical violence, to punch people in the face, the predictable consequence of that is that it escalates," Cruz said. "And today is unlikely to be the last such instance."

Trump admits to buying politicians. Trump admits that he uses foreign guest worker programs to avoid employing Americans.

If you support Trump, you support corruption and foreign workers. Period.

You must be one of the lo-info trump supporters. Your list of supposed links have been refuted enough times that you should know better than to repeat them. And yes, each candidate is responsible for the environment they create around them.

READ HIS STATEMENT UP ABOVE I agree with Cruz.

Give us a EXACT statement where CRUZ blamed TRUMP for the protests.

I suppose the irony in all this is Trump will gain support. If those idiots wanted to protest Trump they should have stayed outside, rather than infiltrating, in large numbers, inside the stadium.

It's really rather frustrating to see the collapse of conservatism and it being replaced by authoritarian populist nationalism.

I think you just did. And I watched the three minute video where Felito continues to blame Trump. I urge you to watch it as its going to hurt him next Tuesday.

Megyn Kelly was teasing his presser. I said to my wife he better be careful. Nope.

Now he’s lumped with Bernie and allowing the media to excuse the MoveOn Marxist Mob. CNN had a chyron ‘Cruz blames Trump for Chicago Protest’ Not that the thugs were responsible for anything.

Think about what he did. Political expediency. He would sell us out in a heartbeat if it helped him. Whereas Trump never gives an inch.

Good luck with that one. You're asking people filled with rage to think about what words mean. It's all about feelings for them.

Trump has made these statements. He just admitted to using the Visa program to hire foreigners instead of Americans.

Do you not understand plain English?

Don’t let them get under your skin. Emotions are a powerful thing and emotions drive the very heart of the left. When I come into FR and see comments like what I’ve seen here such as I want to stop before I say what I really want to say to you that tells me many in FR have gone the way of the left and emotions and are completely lost.

As far as I am concerned I refuse to engage anyone anymore that allows their sheer emotion to get in the way of reason. Try to convince me without all the emotion (not you by the way). Give me a compelling argument based on reason without the glitter and sarcastic satire and I may just pull to the Trump side.

I don’t believe it is Trump who has necessarily turned me against Trump more so than it is his supporters. When someone is wrong I respect them more if their supporters just man up to it and move on vs. bending into a pretzel trying to tell me what Trump really said or meant incantations. I’ll accept someone manning up but what I won’t accept is emotional drivel masked behind and idolization so much so that it blinds them completely from reality. That reality is Trump is at times unhinged and has condoned acts of violence. This is in no way presidential or represent conservative virtues.
