This is quite stunning even for a politician as low as Ted Cruz. Senator Cruz has a prime opportunity to highlight the intolerance of the left. Instead he choses to attack Donald Trump:
At a media availability in Chicago, Ted Cruz basically blamed Donald Trump for the violence and protests that occurred earlier in the day at a Donald Trump rally at the University of Illinois-Chicago.

| Yes, the truth does hurt... Cruz and Rubio are just props in the Trump Circus. ' It's sweeping the country and the more Chicago thugs try to stop it, the more determined Americans are to come see it. |
Hey, nice graphic!
“Yes you are blaming the victims of attack “
No. I am pointing out both the protestors AND Trump share the same common value - acceptance of violence to achieve a political end. They are soul-mates. They share the same core values.

I’ve let Cruz slide in a lot of things, but this one he jumped the shark. Texas I hope you remember this come his re-election time. I’m done with this piece of crap.
‘... the protestors AND Trump share the same common value - acceptance of violence to achieve a political end ...’
I agree! A general should tell his soldiers not to carry guns at Fort Hood. We should never waterboard terrorists. We should not ban muslims.
And most important of all, a commander in chief should never, ever insult the Religion of Peace.

BUSH BRO JOINS CRUZ [finance team]

Personally, I never support a candidate based on what they say or who supports them. I always research who opposes them and vote accordingly.
Always follow the money.
“A general should tell his soldiers not to carry guns at Fort Hood. We should never waterboard terrorists.”
That has NOTHING to do with this discussion. I’m not opposed to violence of any kind, having been in the military for 25 years and carrying concealed as a civilian. But I’m also have no right to just hit someone I disagree with.
The leftist violence in Chicago is designed to push a theme that Donald Trump=Violence.
The Republican candidates other than Trump chime in on cue, the media chimes in on cue.
Exactly. All in an effort to scare and bully us into not voting Trump. “Principled Conservative” Ted Cruz stands with Bil Ayers. Unbelievable.
No, I was a musician. LOL! Actually, I do still play music and the number of libs I’m acquainted with is mind boggling so we(I) don’t bring up politics with most of them at all. Some feelin’ the bern, others in the hildebeasts pocket. Of her pant suit.
So you blame trump and the people coming to hear him at his rallies - NOT the BLM people who come to disrupt the rallies?
You’re taking the side of the leftists who show up at Trumps rallies to disrupt them. Does Soros pay you?
Is Cruz really so politically inept to not understand that he cost himself any chance at national officer ever? He had a chance to stand up to the radical left and didn’t. It won’t be forgotten.
Again, why? Is he compromised in some way? Or has the Establishment promised him a golden parachute? Or did ambition get the better of him? I don’t get it.
Cruz is mainstreaming himself and trying to go after the anti-Trump vote. Conservatives are dead to him He says a maximalist position when the lights are on figuring he can walk it back later and his porch conservatives will stay on the Cruz plantation. IF they don’t as Captain of the Anti-Trump campaign he really doesn’t care.
Levin is in on it.
I see Levin still has no comment on conservatives being attacked in Chicago. He did retweet a National Review Cruz cheer leading article though.
Oh really, we use violence to achieve our goal by going to a peaceful rally? That has to be the largest equivalency fail of the day. No we are not using violence to achieve our goals they are - we are defending ourselves from their violent aggression.
You are blaming the victims for being attacked. Stop it.
Ted Cruz is never going to be POTUS. You’ve got many freepers now preferring Marco Amnestio to your boy. Think about that. You can’t stand with violent murdering communists like Bill Ayers and ever expect to get support from conservatives.
