"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

I don't think so. He is only encouraging these animals. I already voted for Cruz but now I regret that I did.
Siding with anarchists — nauseating.
Cruz is very clever in the way he distorts. I wonder how he reconciles that with his Christian ethics.
And when it comes down to it, like most politicians, Cruz has only rhetoric on his resume.
Donald did not instigate violence. He simply responded to antagonistic and in some cases violent outsiders who attended his rallies, looking for trouble.
If Ted were the only guy standing, and the protesters show up and try to shut him down, will he take the blame for his violent rhetoric that they say is anti black/illegal immigrant?
“We might as well have Hillary”.
You are one sick “conservative.”
>>> there is no right for someone to push and shove a protestor at the rally. Only security should remove them.
Hypothetically speaking, you are absolutely right. In Chicago, on the other hand, you have one large group trying to deny another large group of their 1st Amendment rights. When the size of the two groups exceeds the size of the police force, and the national command authority refuses to protect the right of its citizens to assemble and speak, then what happens?
It’s a Pandora Box that we would all wish were never opened. But the left is ripping open that box with all haste. Your move. Where is the logical conclusion to all this?
These are unconventional times, needing unconventional men with unconventional strategies.
Status quo gotta go!
Donald Trump has enormous shoulders to bare all of this.
Why would they use libtard arguments in an attempt to score points against Trump? Are they going to make “micro-agression” accusations next?
Wow...Trump said “Go get ‘em”
Oh my...how awful.
Never thought it would come to this, but...
FUTC
Cruz seems much to confident in his clever rhetorical ability, as if he thought he could verbally “Houdini” anyone at any time.
Seems like he worked his little chatty parlor room magic on you. Better check for your wallet and watch on your way out.
I dont trust anyone who has done nothing but run their mouth their whole lives.
Donald has been in the trenches of the private sector, where he has fought and won many battles.
No more politicians!
Oh wow. Beck is powerful!
He actually got 20,000 people to show up in Chicago and protest AND convinced them to carry Mexican flags and Bernie signs?
Love him or hate him, Beck is pretty awesome if he can pull all that off!
Oh Holy crap.
You need to settle down.
That’s a lot of conspiracy going on there.
You work for Alex Jones?
Same as the old Jeb!
Apparently Cruz, Kasich or Rubio have not been paying attention to current events on our American college campuses over the last 6 years....
I don’t know who Alex Jones is.
I do know what the GOPe did in Mississippi to Chris McDaniel in order to seat their boy Thad Cochran. No reason why similar tactics weren’t utilized yesterday. In February, “they” promised to “Go full Mississippi” on Trump; I actually believe them.
I don’t and I am not a Trump supporter. This is what the left does. They silence anyone who thinks different than they do.
