Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) said Friday night that primary frontrunner Donald Trump’s campaign is responsible for creating an environment that encourages violence after a Trump rally was cancelled because clashes broke out when protestors entered the event.
Speaking at a press conference, Cruz told reporters he “thinks a campaign bears responsibility for creating an environment [of violence]. 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.”

For teddy, not only does #blacklivesmatter, but also pastel tones matter, too, not bold colors. What a weakling.
Cruz had a chance to stand next to Trump is solidarity against this orchestrated effort to molest and disrupt as peaceful political assembly... He failed.
“And Cruz wants me to think he’d be a great SCOTUS justice.”
Until tonight, I really did think Rubio was the worst of the two. Just shows you how wrong I can be. And through it all, you have to listen to that Nurse Rachet voice of Ted’s. Maybe he needs to consider castration as a means of correcting his terrible voice.
Trump brought it on himself. He banked his candidacy on his ‘strong man’ personae and BLM/Moveon.org called his bluff and he folded.
In the mean time I’m enjoying the schadenfreude from all of his butthurt ‘post-conservative’ (the I dunno what conservative means anymore crowd) supporters crying about the first amendment and the lack of solidarity from Trump’s political opponents.
It's apparently all theory to Mr. Big Brain.
He doesn't seem to be able to join the words and concepts to actual action in the real world.
Free speech means that I get to say whatever the hell I want to say, without the government jumping down my throat about it, Ted. It means that everyone else has a right to say what they want, too. Especially if it offends.
The 1st Amendment is in place precisely so one CAN say things that might offend their government.
Cuck
It appears from his statement Ted Cruz advocates the political equivalent of her skirt was too short, and she deserved to be raped for it.....you know, ‘for creating an environment’.
By hook or by crook selling out truth for what will be a loss regarding the White House.
Given the chance to defend the Constitution or to feed his ambition by trashing an opponent....we see the choice he has made.
Worse than Rubio
Nurse Rachet
Castration

LOL
Ouch!
Can’t argue with that.
Tuesday, I’m voting Trump.
Welcome to the club.
I was all in for Ted, too. Donated four times to his presidential campaign before being turned off by his votes on TPA/TPP, then the Corker bill.
I also voted three times in Texas to help get him into the Senate in 2012.
I voted Trump in the Texas primary that just passed.
This was planned for weeks.
The leftists seek a wedge by which to instigate a revolution.
Tonight was their opening salvo. Time will tell if they can actually generate critical mass.
It’s documented, real, and organized.
I think there is going to be tons of Cruz people leaving him after those despicable statements.. EVERYBODY knows if Trump hadn’t run and Cruz was the one in first place for the Republican nomination Moveon would have done the same thing to Cruz..
Cruz should be ashamed of himself for this.
That would have done it. Short and sweet and I bet he would have got some votes out of it. But no. He basically EXCUSED these creeps and blamed it on Trump. Unbelievable.
>> And Cruz wants me to think he’d be a great SCOTUS justice.
The boy lost his way. And I’m deeply disappointed he didn’t know any better.
Um.....Stabby the Clown, anyone??
