Cruz, Rubio and Kasich criticize Trump for creating ‘environment’ for Chicago protest
The Washington Post ^ | March 11, 2015 | David Weigel

Posted on 03/11/2016 8:31:56 PM PST by lonestar67

"The responsibility for that lies with protesters, who took violence into their own hands. But in any campaign, responsibility starts at the top. Any candidate is responsible for the culture of a 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 discord," Cruz said

You are either a troll or a naive youth. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and proceed under the assumption of the latter.

The type of people disrupting Trump rallies are dangerous, uncivilized criminal types, drug addicts and the mentally unstable...the type communists recruit to do their dirty work. And some misguided idealists are in the mix. Except for some of the idealists, these people generally do not respond to reasoned argument, moral pleadings, or high-road examples. These types of people executed 100 million of their fellow countrymen under the dictates of Marxism. In the face of their perceived adversaries, the ONLY thing that they respond to is force or the threat of force.

Educate yourself about communist tactics and you will understand what is going on.

Cruz (my top choice) is wrong on this.

Evil thugs created the environment for violence. The thugs include Bernie, Hillary, Obama, and their money backers and minions. Trump did not create the violence or the threat of violence; it was the bullies who planned to disrupt to prevent free speech.

Liberals are evil and Trump only provided them with the opportunity to show their evil in public.

Please stop, Cruz really stepped in it this evening and I for one, am not interested in hearing spin over and over and over again.

Atta boy, Ted, blame the victim. This is precisely the reason why we are mad as hell and not going to take it any more. Let the disruptor control the message. Bah. I am so over you.

Link to what is all over twitter? Go look... Have to say six months ago I was a Cruz supporter. Finding out more and more about this man, I am dedicated to preventing the Canadian from being our POTUS.

The video you saw might have been selectively edited to show the protesters in a positive light and the Trump people in a negative light.

No, Teddy is a POS, whose BFF, CRAZY BECK told his listeners to go protest Trump tonight and Cruz knew well in advance about what was planned.

Bunch of traitors and liars all in the same boat .

Violence is the ultimate path of rabid and vicious opponents who can’t stop the Trump train , the anti-establishment movement , with sensible arguments .

All kind of biased and smear “arguments” have been used against Trump and now they have this

So stay frustrated

Cruz is simply a moron and a vile coward .

It’s a perfect right to defend yourself and your buddies when you are attacked .

Don’t give a free ride to terrorism ( islamic and also black terrorism ....) . Obama is the true racist fueling hatred

Many of us heard him say it LIVE and shan't forget that he BLAMED Trump for what MOVEON.ORG, ANSWER, BLM, GLENN BECK, and others fomented.

No matter what Cruz says or does, you'll agree with him and praise him to the skies; you are so in thrall of him.

And you HATE Trump SO much, you can't even blame Rubio for saying what he said either.

And just WHAT did Trump say, that upset poor Billy Ayers so much? Yes, THE BOMB MAKING, MURDERING, THIEVING COMMIE TRAITOR BILLY AYERS WAS THERE TOO! Was it Trump's tone?

You are absurd, a lofo, and a #NEVER TRUMP; you fit in nicely with the RENT-A-MOB!

Teddy has NEVER "dealt with these people" EVER !

Teddy doesn't ever get 10s of thousands to turn out to see/hear him and neither does he get 1,000s of protesters.

Ka-Sick:
“Tonight the seeds of division that Donald Trump has been sowing this whole campaign finally bore fruit, and it was ugly,” said Kasich.

Absolutely despicable!
